Iron removal during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis using deferoxamine

Beta-2 microglobulin removal during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).

Beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) handling in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) was characterized in acute and chronic clinical studies. Average clearance rate was 0.7 mL/min and mean mass transfer coefficient, KoA, was calculated to be 0.95 cm2/min; these values are in the range expected from extrapolation of published data for other large solutes. In chronic studies with both anuric a...

Amikacin pharmacokinetics during continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

The pharmacokinetics of amikacin were investigated in five stable patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Each patient was studied after the administration of 7.5 mg of amikacin per kg by both the intravenous (i.v.) and intraperitoneal (i.p.) route, allowing a 1-month washout period between doses. No differences in amikacin half-life, volume of distribution, total ...

Paediatric continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

Ten children in end-stage renal failure were treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). This represents a total of 3.4 patient years. Biochemical control was good, and parent and patient acceptability high. Peritonitis was the chief complication, but after the institution of a specific CAPD education and training programme the incidence declined 10-fold. We regard CAPD as an e...
