Superiority of icodextrin compared with 4.25% dextrose for peritoneal ultrafiltration.
Several clinical observations suggest the superiority of icodextrin compared with 4.25% dextrose in optimizing peritoneal ultrafiltration (UF), but no rigorous controlled evaluation has hitherto been performed. For comparing icodextrin and 4.25% dextrose during the long dwell of automated peritoneal dialysis, a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial was conducted in 92 patients (control, 4...
متن کاملDiscriminative impact of ultrafiltration on peritoneal protein transport.
OBJECTIVE The dialysate concentration of large proteins increases, on average, linearly during the whole peritoneal dialysis dwell, and this linear pattern seems to be independent of the rate of ultrafiltration induced by dialysis fluid. However, we observed a high variability of protein kinetics in individual dwell studies. Therefore, we studied the details of the kinetic pattern of peritoneal...
متن کاملPeritoneal ultrafiltration in end-stage congestive heart failure.
Congestive heart failure (CHF) refractory to pharmacological therapy is a growing medical problem. Renal sodium and water retention remains a key event in the pathogenesis of the disease progression and episodes of severe cardiac decompensation, being also the leading cause of high hospitalization rates and an important risk factor for worsening kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD)....
متن کاملDiuretic-resistant congestive heart failure treated successfully with peritoneal ultrafiltration.
We present a case of successful peritoneal ultrafiltration (pUF) treatment in a 60 year-old patient diagnosed with diuretic-resistant congestive heart failure fulfilling the criteria for type 2 cardio-renal syndrome. Six months of pUF treatment with one daily dialysis exchange with icodextrin as an osmotic agent resulted in better functional status (from IV to II/III NYHA class), quality of lif...
متن کاملPeritoneal ultrafiltration in end-stage chronic heart failure
BACKGROUND Cardiorenal syndrome type 2 (CRS-2) is common in end-stage chronic heart failure (CHF). Peritoneal ultrafiltration (pUF) may entail clinical functional improvement and a reduction in hospitalizations. METHODS Thirty-nine consecutive end-stage CHF patients with stable CRS-2 were initiated on ambulatory pUF after interdisciplinary cardiological/nephrological evaluation and prospectiv...
