This study shows that peritoneal dialysis using an I-lactate solution is safe and effective for end-stage renal failure patients. The treatment successfully improved metabolic acidosis and azotemia, indicating better kidney function.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Renal Replacement Therapy

Background:

  • End-stage renal failure (ESRF) necessitates renal replacement therapy.
  • Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a common treatment modality for ESRF.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel I-lactate-containing peritoneal dialysis solution.
  • To assess the impact of this solution on metabolic acidosis and azotemia in ESRF patients.

Main Methods:

  • Seven ESRF patients underwent PD using an I-lactate solution.
  • The solution was sterilized via ultrafiltration using polyamide filters.
  • Patient tolerance and clinical parameters were monitored.

Main Results:

  • Patients tolerated the PD procedure well.

  • Significant improvements in metabolic acidosis were observed.
  • Azotemia markers showed notable reduction, indicating improved kidney function.

    • Conclusions:

    • I-lactate-containing peritoneal dialysis solution is well-tolerated in ESRF patients.
    • This PD solution effectively manages metabolic acidosis and azotemia.
    • Ultrafiltration sterilization is a viable method for preparing PD solutions.
