Solutions for Peritoneal Dialysis
1996Solute removal in peritoneal dialysis is achieved both by diffusion and convection. The first mechanism takes place because of the concentration gradient between the blood of the peritoneal capillary and the peritoneal dialysis solution infused in the abdomen.

Biocompatibility of peritoneal dialysis solutions
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1996V ARIOUS alterations of peritoneal morphology have been demonstrated in peritoneal biopsy specimens obtained from continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.’ The structure of the mesothelium is changed or, in extreme cases, the peritoneum is denuded of mesothelium and covered with a thick amorphous layer of interstitial tissue ...

Vasoactive Components of Dialysis Solution
Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2008Background Conventional peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions elicit vasodilation, which is implicated in the variable rate of solute transport during the dwell. The components causing such vasoactivity are still controversial. This study was conducted to define the vasoactive components of conventional and new PD solutions.

Principles of Bound Solute Dialysis
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, 2006Abstract: Toxins that bind to albumin in the bloodstream and are associated with progressing liver failure have proven refractory to removal by conventional hemodialysis. Such toxins can, however, be removed by adding a binder to the dialysate that serves to capture the toxin as it is dialyzed across the membrane.

Supplemented Dialysis: Amino Acid-Based Solutions in Peritoneal Dialysis
2015Peritoneal dialysis is associated with several metabolic and nutritional abnormalities, some of which are related to the use of glucose-based solutions. Furthermore, the catabolic effects of uremia per se, protein and amino acid losses into the dialysate, peritonitis and poor appetite contribute to amino acid abnormalities, negative nitrogen balance ...

Peritoneal damage by peritoneal dialysis solutions
Clinical and Experimental Nephrology, 2008Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is a well-accepted treatment for end-stage renal disease, but its long-term success is limited. Peritoneal sclerosis is still one of the most important complications of long-term peritoneal dialysis and the low biocompatibility of peritoneal dialysis solutions plays a major role in the development of such ...

>PD has traditionally been performed with acidic solutions containing glucose as osmotic and lactate as buffer agent. These solutions confer marked local and systemic toxicity (Fig. 12.1). Within few years, the peritoneal membrane undergoes profound morphological transformations including progressive mesothelial denudation, submesothelial fibrosis ...

Peritoneal Dialysis Solution and Nutrition
201220-70% of peritoneal dialysis patients have some signs of malnutrition. Anorexia, protein and amino acid losses in dialysate, advanced age of elderly patients, inflammation and cardiac failure are among the main causes. Modern dialysis solutions aim to reduce these causes, but none of them is without side effects: glucose is relatively safe and brings ...
