Influence of the solution used for the long dwell on the results of the Peritoneal Equilibration Test using 3.86% glucose in CAPD.

The aim of the present study is to compare the following transport characteristics for a modified 3.86% glucose PET preceded by a long (>8 hours) dwell with 3.86% glucose (PET A) and one preceded by a long dwell with 7.5% icodextrin (PET B),…

The main aim is to develop an intervention to change knowledge, communication and attitudes regarding renal replacement therapy (RRT). The second main aim is to investigate whether this intervention has an impact on the proportion of patients…

A comparison between the effects of icodextrin and glucose 2.27% on plasma volume in peritoneal dialysis patients

The primary hypothesis of the study is that the use of icodextrin leads to a reduction in extracellular volume compared to glucose 2.27%, but that the effects of icodextrin and glucose 2.27% on plasma will not differ.
