Peritoneal Dialysis

07/01/1989 - "The renal pathway of excretion was shown to be important in 6 chronic renal failure patients on continuous peritoneal dialysis with residual renal function who eliminated in 24 h 51.4 +/- 24.0 micrograms Al by urine and only 27.2 +/- 18.4 micrograms Al across the peritoneum following a daily oral application of 342 mg Al. Studies with the isolated perfused rat kidney confirmed the limited renal capacity to eliminate Al. Al clearance declined from 0.75 to less than 0.08 mL/min when the kidney was perfused with 0.04-12.4 micrograms Al/mL medium. "
01/01/2012 - "Peritoneal dialysis has been proven to be a safe and effective mode of renal replacement therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease. "
01/01/2007 - "High Body Mass Index (BMI) has been associated with improved survival of End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients on chronic hemodialysis (HD); however, studies on the relationship of BMI with survival in Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) patients have yielded conflicting results. "
05/01/2013 - "Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an effective and successful therapy for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). "
09/01/2010 - "Although peritoneal dialysis (PD) is recommended as the first-line treatment for end-stage renal disease, limitations exist to achieving good clinical status when the residual renal function (RRF) has declined. "

03/01/2012 - "Early prediction of the efficacy of treatment in peritonitis complicating peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the best way to reduce morbidity. "
01/01/2007 - "Intraperitoneal administration of antibiotic agents is the most effective treatment of peritoneal dialysis peritonitis. "
01/01/2012 - "Advanced nursing experience is beneficial for lowering the peritonitis rate in patients on peritoneal dialysis."
07/01/2006 - "Early Tenckhoff catheter removal and prophylaxis (antifungal treatment, education, coexisting diseases treatment) may be beneficial for peritoneal dialysis patients with fungal peritonitis."
01/01/2012 - "Peritonitis is a major problem for peritoneal dialysis patients and although improved technology has decreased the incidence of peritonitis, unusual organisms are increasingly reported. "

10/15/2014 - "Peritoneal dialysis confers therapeutic advantages in patients with renal insufficiency and has proven beneficial in other indications, such as removal of excess metabolites or overdosed drugs. "
12/01/2009 - "An innovative predicting model was developed, which employed the improved genetic algorithm embedded in neural network for predicting the important PFAR index in the peritoneal dialysis treatment process of renal failure. "
10/18/1980 - "In five consecutive patients with severe renal failure secondary to acute myeloma kidney early aggressive therapy, including chemotherapy and peritoneal dialysis, led to a significant improvement in the renal function of four; the fifth patient received a cadaveric renal transplant after 1 year of peritoneal dialysis. "
06/01/1986 - "In the patients without renal failure, low-flow peritoneal dialysis (one exchange per day) seemed to be of some value in maintaining remission but was ineffective in treating more active disease. "
01/01/1990 - "Peritoneal dialysis is effective in the newborn period in the management of metabolic disturbances as well as renal failure. "

02/01/2005 - "Only in patients on hemodialysis or chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) was a significant reduction of the infection rate found. "
05/01/2008 - "Although results of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in small children have improved during recent years, the youngest children have poorer growth, more infections and higher mortality than do older children. "
12/01/2011 - "PEG-IFN monotherapy with dose modification may be a safe and effective treatment for HCV infection in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis."
08/01/2008 - "PEG-IFN monotherapy with dose modification may be a safe and effective treatment for HCV infection in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis."
12/01/2012 - "All peritoneal dialysis-related infections were cured after the treatment. "

11/01/1991 - "We conclude that acute peritoneal dialysis is a safe and effective treatment in most pediatric patients with acute renal failure. "
01/06/1984 - "In removing the uraemic toxins CAVH is more effective than peritoneal dialysis and, in most instances, satisfactory as sole renal replacement therapy in acute renal failure."

01/01/1995 - "To conclude, 10 daily peritoneal dialysis exchanges performed at 1-h intervals after initial stabilization using a surgically placed Tenckhoff catheter is an effective and safe mode of dialytic therapy for children with acute renal failure. "
01/01/1990 - "Peritoneal dialysis is a relatively safe and effective form of therapy for acute renal failure (ARF). "
