Benefits of preserving residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]

Kidney International, 2008
Residual renal function (RRF) is of paramount importance in patients with end-stage renal disease, with benefits that go beyond contributing to achievement of adequacy targets. Several studies have found that RRF rather than overall adequacy (as estimated from total small solute removal rates) is an essential marker of patient and, to a lesser extent ...

Residual renal function at the start of dialysis and clinical outcomes [PDF]

Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2009
This study evaluates the association between estimated GFR (eGFR) at the start of dialysis and mortality within Europe.Renal registries participating in the ERA-EDTA Registry were asked to provide data on serum creatinine recorded 0-4 weeks before the start of dialysis in incident dialysis patients in 1999 and 2003.
