Stability of Daptomycin in Dextrose and Icodextrin-Based Peritoneal Dialysis Solutions [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology
Conclusions: Current stability results support and guide the use of intraperitoneal daptomycin in different dialysis solutions. Patients with peritonitis requiring icodextrin exchange and assisted preparation of daptomycin can benefit from nurses who ...

Peritonitis in Peritoneal Dialysis: When to Consider Acute Pancreatitis? Case Report and Mini-Review [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Nephrology and Dialysis
Introduction: Acute pancreatitis is an infrequent but challenging cause of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis (PD). Presentation is often indistinguishable from infectious peritonitis, interpretation of pancreatic enzymes is not straight-forward, and ...

Sex Modulates Cardiovascular Effects of Icodextrin-Based Peritoneal Dialysis Solutions

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background/Aims: Some previous observations have noted that after six months of peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment with icodextrin solutions, blood pressure (BP) and NT-proBNP tend to return to baseline values.

Long Peritoneal Dialysis Dwells With Icodextrin: Kinetics of Transperitoneal Fluid and Polyglucose Transport

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Background and objective: During peritoneal dialysis (PD), the period of effective net peritoneal ultrafiltration during long dwells can be extended by using the colloidal osmotic agent icodextrin but there are few detailed studies on ultrafiltration ...
