چکیده

The efficacy and safety of icodextrin has been well established. In this paper, we will discuss the pharmacokinetics and biocompatibility of icodextrin and its clinical effect on fluid management in peritoneal dialysis patients. Novel strategies for its prescription for peritoneal dialysis patients with inadequate ultrafiltration are reviewed.

Icodextrin as salvage therapy in peritoneal dialysis patients with refractory fluid overload

BACKGROUND Icodextrin is a high molecular weight, starch-derived glucose polymer, which is capable of inducing sustained ultrafiltration over prolonged (12-16 hour) peritoneal dialysis (PD) dwells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of icodextrin to alleviate refractory, symptomatic fluid overload and prolong technique survival in PD patients. METHODS A prospective, open-label,...

Cost savings from peritoneal dialysis therapy time extension using icodextrin.

Previous retrospective studies have reported that icodextrin may prolong peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment time in patients with refractory fluid overload (RFO). Because the annual cost of PD therapy is lower than that of hemodialysis (HD) therapy in Australia, we prospectively investigated the ability of icodextrin to prolong PD technique survival in patients with RFO. We used a computer mode...

Sodium removal in peritoneal dialysis: the role of icodextrin and peritoneal dialysis modalities.

One of the main goals of dialysis is the control of extracellular volume, because inadequate sodium and fluid removal result in fluid overload and increased mortality. In the present study, we evaluated the roles of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD), and the use of icodextrin on sodium removal in 29 patients (n = 18 on CAPD, n = 11 o...

Icodextrin instead of glucose during the daytime dwell in CCPD increases ultrafiltration and 24-h dialysate creatinine clearance.

BACKGROUND AND METHODS Icodextrin 7.5% is an iso-osmolar, glucose polymer-containing peritoneal dialysis solution with an ultrafiltration potential similar to glucose 3.86%. We compared in an open, randomized, prospective study the ultrafiltration potential of icodextrin with that of glucose during the daytime dwell of 23 patients treated with automated peritoneal dialysis (CCPD). RESULTS Day...

Comparison of icodextrin and glucose solutions for the daytime dwell in automated peritoneal dialysis.

BACKGROUND The sustained ultrafiltration achieved by icodextrin is more suited for the daytime dwell in automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) than glucose solutions. METHODS Seventeen patients receiving APD underwent assessment using three different solutions for the daytime dwell: 2.27% glucose, 3.86% glucose and 7.5% icodextrin. Patients were then observed on icodextrin for a 6 month period. ...
