Analysis of kinetic studies of peritoneal solute transport involves the need for discrimination between three transport components: diffusion, convective transport, and peritoneal absorption. The description of convective transport in standard clinical conditions of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), as well as in isochratic measurements, has met some problems related to the paradoxical and often anomalous values of sieving coefficient, a parameter that characterizes solute drag with the flow of ultrafiltrate. A possible explanation of some of these results is the time dependence of the transport parameters, which is in contrast to their assumed steadiness. These anomalies as well as the time dependence of the transport parameters are confined more to the standard glucose-based dialysis fluid than to some alternative dialysis fluids. Furthermore, the most striking anomalies have been found for small electrolytes as well as for osmotic agents, which are applied in high, unphysiological concentrations. These solutes may be involved in the transport between intracellular and extracellular compartments within the peritoneal membrane, which phenomena are not included in the current modeling.

D007424 Intracellular Fluid The fluid inside CELLS. Fluid, Intracellular,Fluids, Intracellular,Intracellular Fluids
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.

D010531 Peritoneal Dialysis, Continuous Ambulatory Portable peritoneal dialysis using the continuous (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) presence of peritoneal dialysis solution in the peritoneal cavity except for periods of drainage and instillation of fresh solution. CAPD,Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis
D010537 Peritoneum A membrane of squamous EPITHELIAL CELLS, the mesothelial cells, covered by apical MICROVILLI that allow rapid absorption of fluid and particles in the PERITONEAL CAVITY. The peritoneum is divided into parietal and visceral components. The parietal peritoneum covers the inside of the ABDOMINAL WALL. The visceral peritoneum covers the intraperitoneal organs. The double-layered peritoneum forms the MESENTERY that suspends these organs from the abdominal wall. Parietal Peritoneum,Peritoneum, Parietal,Peritoneum, Visceral,Visceral Peritoneum,Parametrium,Parametriums
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.

D004058 Diffusion The tendency of a gas or solute to pass from a point of higher pressure or concentration to a point of lower pressure or concentration and to distribute itself throughout the available space. Diffusion, especially FACILITATED DIFFUSION, is a major mechanism of BIOLOGICAL TRANSPORT. Diffusions
D005110 Extracellular Space Interstitial space between cells, occupied by INTERSTITIAL FLUID as well as amorphous and fibrous substances. For organisms with a CELL WALL, the extracellular space includes everything outside of the CELL MEMBRANE including the PERIPLASM and the cell wall.
