[Optimization of peritoneal dialysis using diffusion curves]
Abstract:
By taking peritoneal diffusion curves of several substances characterizing the uraemia it is possible, taking into consideration a creatinine clearance of 0.1 ml X s-1, to calculate the quantity of dialysate necessary for this, regarding also the residual renal function at a differently long duration of the dialysis cycle. Moreover, by this way also the clearances of other investigated substances can be calculated. Apart from a sufficient detoxication optimized duration of the disease and consumption of the dialysate are the advances of the method.
