Deferoxamine for the treatment of hemosiderosis during CAPD. 1987

R A Gomez, and F Campbell, and J Savory, and R L Chevalier

The effects of chelation therapy by intravenous and intraperitoneal administration of deferoxamine were compared during maintenance continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in a child with end stage renal disease and hemosiderosis. We demonstrate that intraperitoneally administered deferoxamine is safer, more practical and efficient than weekly intravenously administered deferoxamine for the treatment of iron overload in the pediatric patient undergoing CAPD.

D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
