IgG glycation and function during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis

Amikacin pharmacokinetics during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

The pharmacokinetics of amikacin were investigated in five stable patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Each patient was studied after the administration of 7.5 mg of amikacin per kg by both the intravenous (i.v.) and intraperitoneal (i.p.) route, allowing a 1-month washout period between doses. No differences in amikacin half-life, volume of distribution, total ...

Paediatric continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

Ten children in end-stage renal failure were treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). This represents a total of 3.4 patient years. Biochemical control was good, and parent and patient acceptability high. Peritonitis was the chief complication, but after the institution of a specific CAPD education and training programme the incidence declined 10-fold. We regard CAPD as an e...

Ertapenem pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

Scant data exist for the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ertapenem in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The goals of this study were to characterize the PK profile of ertapenem during CAPD, determine the extent of ertapenem penetration into the peritoneal cavity, and quantify the probability of the target attainment (PTA) profile in the serum and peritoneal cavity. A single...

A Comparison Study of Glucose Fluctuation During Automated Peritoneal Dialysis and Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis.

In recent years, it has become possible to examine an individual's daily glucose profile with a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS). The aim of the present study was to use a CGMS to evaluate the difference in glucose fluctuation between diabetic patients on automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and those on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We retrospectively studied 20 d...
