Clearance of inorganic sulfate by peritoneal dialysis in children with chronic renal failure. 1986

D E Cole, and R M Hanning, and S H Zlotkin, and J W Balfe

The peritoneal clearance of inorganic sulfate was measured in 6 infants and 12 children with end-stage renal disease who were receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Serum sulfate, which was elevated before dialysis, changed little during the 5-hour dialysis period. The dialysis sulfate concentration increased at the same rate as creatinine. Net clearance of the two metabolites was not different. It was calculated that the removal by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis in 24 h is comparable to the daily excretion of SO4 in healthy children.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007223	Infant	A child between 1 and 23 months of age.	Infants
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.
