To test the precision of estimates of body water and urea clearance in peritoneal dialysis (PD), we compared, in 925 PD patients who underwent formal urea kinetics studies, estimates of V and Kt/V urea obtained by the use of the Watson, Hume, and Sahlgrenska anthropometric formulas and two novel formulas, one (Vcreat) computed using fat-free mass (FFM) estimated from creatinine kinetics as 0.73...
