Peritoneal dialysis and heparin
In a prospective, controlled and double-blind investigation the influence of heparin--added to the dialysis solution--on the lapse of peritoneal dialysis is studied. The material comprises 9 patients, all of whom had 2 peritoneal dialysis, one with and one without heparin added to the dialysis solution. A significantly higher inflow and outflow were found in the heparin group. Further the total length of one dialyted procedure--which according to literature never seems to have been exposed to an investigation-the results of the present investigation supports the theoretical considerations of adding heparin to peritoneal dialysis solutions.
