LOSS OF ULTRAFILTRATION IN CONTINUOUS AMBULATORY PERITONEAL DIALYSIS: A ROLE FOR ACETATE

Bernadette Faller and Jean-Francois Marichal

From the Department of Nephrology and Hemodialysis; Hospices Civils L. Pasteur, 68021 Colmar, France.

A retrospective analysis of the ultrafiltration (UF) capacity of patients treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis since 1978 showed that in all 31 patients using acetatebut Tered dialysate the UF decreased whereas it decreased in only two (14%) of 14 patients using lactate dialysate. Prolonged exposure of the peritoneum to acetate dialysate seems to be responsible for this loss of UF.

KEY WORDS: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis; ultrafiltration; acetate dialysate; lactate dialysate.
