Peritoneal equilibration test at home.
The peritoneal equilibration test (PET) has been widely used as a standardized means for estimating solute transport. However, the procedure is rather complex, and patients must spend more than half a day in the hospital. The fast PET is an alternative method, but the results are not reliable in patients whose peritoneal catheters drain poorly. We postulated that patients could perform the PET ...
متن کاملPeritoneal Equilibration Test in Costa Rica: Discrepancies from Other Populations
Objective. Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) is a kidney replacement therapy that has been recently incorporated in developing countries. We aim to establish our reference values, to compare them with the original and the Mexican population, and to associate some variables with the type of peritoneal transport. Methods. Thirty peritoneal equilibration tests (PET) were performed. ...
متن کاملPeritoneal Equilibration Testing and Application
FW, a recently diagnosed patient with CKD Stage 5, is a 6-year-old boy who has been recommended to initiate chronic dialysis. His primary renal disorder is renal dysplasia. His nutritional evaluation reveals a weight of 18.1 kg (SDS −1.08), height 102 cm (SDS −2.64), and BSA 0.8 m2. His residual renal Kt/V is 0.3. A predialysis biochemical evaluation showed BUN 70 mg/dl, creatinine 6.5 mg/dl, h...
متن کاملSequential peritoneal equilibration test: a new method for assessment and modelling of peritoneal transport.
BACKGROUND In spite of many peritoneal tests proposed, there is still a need for a simple and reliable new approach for deriving detailed information about peritoneal membrane characteristics, especially those related to fluid transport. METHODS The sequential peritoneal equilibration test (sPET) that includes PET (glucose 2.27%, 4 h) followed by miniPET (glucose 3.86%, 1 h) was performed in ...
متن کاملChanges in the Peritoneal Equilibration Test in Selected Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis Patients1
Fifty-five patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis with Iwo or more peritoneal equilibration tests (PET) performed between 1983 and 1992 with a mean interval of 2 1 .9 ± 22.7 months were studied retrospectively. Repeated PET were performed when transport changes were suspected rather than routinely. According to the initial PET, there were 16 high (HI), 17 high-average (HA), 15 low-average (LA)...
