Residual peritoneal volume and body size in children on peritoneal dialysis

Residual peritoneal volume may play an important role in dialysis efficacy and abdominal compliance in patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD). In children on CPD, the relationship between residual peritoneal volume and different measures of body size, as well as the day-to-day variability of...

Description
Summary:Residual peritoneal volume may play an important role in dialysis efficacy and abdominal compliance in patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD). In children on CPD, the relationship between residual peritoneal volume and different measures of body size, as well as the day-to-day variability of residual volume, have not been established. We therefore investigated, on two consecutive days, residual peritoneal volume in 25 children on CPD, using the dextran dilution technique.
