A distributed model of bidirectional protein transport during peritoneal fluid absorption.

چکیده
The present article provides a theoretical description of the changes of interstitial hydrostatic pressure, tissue hydration, and protein distribution in the tissue during a peritoneal dwell with isotonic fluid. The mathematical model is based on the concept of uniformly distributed capillary and lymphatic systems within a deformable, porous tissue. Protein transport was analyzed for diffusive and convective transport of serum albumin (SA) and radiolabeled albumin (RISA; added to dialysis fluid) using Darcy's law for fluid flux through the tissue and the two-pore theory for water and protein flow across blood capillary walls. Numerical results showed a local increase of interstitial hydrostatic pressure and tissue hydration over physiologic level in the tissue layer close to the peritoneal surface. The water inflow to the tissue displaced interstitial SA into the deeper tissue layers and yielded RISA accumulation in the tissue at a concentration locally higher than that in the dialysis fluid. The description of water flow agreed with clinical data, but yielded a higher-than-expected hydrostatic pressure in the deep tissue layers. The steady-state rates of fluid and RISA absorption from the peritoneal cavity, but not of SA clearance, agreed with the clinical data.

Concomitant bidirectional transport during peritoneal dialysis can be explained by a structured interstitium.
Clinical and animal studies suggest that peritoneal absorption of fluid and protein from dialysate to peritoneal tissue, and to blood and lymph circulation, occurs concomitantly with opposite flows of fluid and protein, i.e., from blood to dialysate. However, until now a theoretical explanation of this phenomenon has been lacking. A two-phase distributed model is proposed to explain the bidirec...
متن کاملDistributed model of peritoneal fluid absorption.
The process of water reabsorption from the peritoneal cavity into the surrounding tissue substantially decreases the net ultrafiltration in patients on peritoneal dialysis. The goal of this study was to propose a mathematical model based on data from clinical studies and animal experiments to describe the changes in absorption rate, interstitial hydrostatic pressure, and tissue hydration caused...
متن کاملA mathematical model of peritoneal fluid absorption in tissue.
To investigate how water flow and interstitial pressure change in tissue during a peritoneal dwell with isotonic fluid, we developed a mathematical model of water transport in the tissue. Transport through muscle alone (M) and through muscle with intact skin (MS) were considered for the rat abdominal wall, using various parameters for muscle and skin. Based on the concept of distributed capilla...
متن کاملDistributed Models of Peritoneal Transport
There are several methods to model the process of water and solute transport during peritoneal dialysis (PD). The characteristics of the phenomena and the purpose of modelling influence the choice of methodology. Among others, the phenomenological models are commonly used in clinical and laboratory research. In peritoneal dialysis, the compartmental approach is widely used (membrane model, thre...
متن کاملCorrelation between Ultrafiltration Coefficient and Effective Lymphatic Absorption Rate in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: A Possible Paradigm Shift
Background: The relative contribution of transcapillary water movement and lymphatic reabsorption in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a critical issue, particularly in patients with ultrafiltration failure (UFF). Based on routine results obtained from the PD Adequest 2.0 software, the present study aimed to re-evaluate the separate effects of transcapillary water movement and lymphatic reabsorption ...
