Biocompatible Peritoneal Dialysis Fluids: Clinical Outcomes
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a preferred home dialysis modality and has a number of added advantages including improved initial patient survival and cost effectiveness over haemodialysis. Despite these benefits, uptake of PD remains relatively low, especially in developed countries. Wider implementation of PD is compromised by higher technique failure from infections (e.g., PD peritonitis) and u...
متن کاملConventional versus biocompatible peritoneal dialysis fluids: more questions than answers?
The most important challenge in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is long-term preservation of peritoneal membrane structure and function. Introduction of dialysis fluids into the peritoneal cavity induces changes. These changes are related to duration of dialysis, occurrence of peritonitis and components of the dialysis solution. Bioincompatibility is considered to be the major cause of the development...
متن کاملBiocompatible Solutions for Peritoneal Dialysis
In 1978, a simplified technique for peritoneal dialysis (PD) using plastic bags and glucose as osmotic agent allowed PD to become accepted as a home-based renal replacement therapy. However, PD was marred by complications including peritonitis and loss of function of the peritoneal membrane. Both complications may be favored by the bioincompatibility of PD solutions. The composition of PD solut...
متن کاملEffects of biocompatible versus standard fluid on peritoneal dialysis outcomes.
The clinical benefits of using "biocompatible" neutral pH solutions containing low levels of glucose degradation products for peritoneal dialysis compared with standard solutions are uncertain. In this multicenter, open-label, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial, we randomly assigned 185 incident adult peritoneal dialysis patients with residual renal function to use either biocompatible...
متن کاملCytotoxic Glucose Degradation Products in Fluids for Peritoneal Dialysis
During the standard heat sterilization process of the lactate–buffered peritoneal dialysis solutions, glucose (an osmotic active substance) degrades to form compounds called glucose degradation products which are cytotoxic and affect the survival of the peritoneal membrane. This case presentation is based on an observation of 224 aseptic peritonitis cases of unknown etiology. For the purpose of...
