PERITONEAL DIALYSIS IN REFRACTORY CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE PART II: CONTINUOUS AMBULATORY PERITONEAL DIALYSIS (CAPD)

Michael Robson, Arie Biro, Boleswar Knobel, George Schai and Mordchai Ravid

From the Department of Medicine, Sackler School of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Lady WoIfson Hospital, Tel Aviv and Meir Hospital, Kfar Saba, Israel.

Three patients with intractable congestive heart failure (CHF) resistant to all other therapy were treated for three, five and six months by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). They lost eight to II kg in weight and had a marked improvement in symptoms of heart failure. Recurrent peritonitis precluded the continuation of CAPD and all three patients died within two weeks of stopping the treatment.
