Our objective was to evaluate the impact of peritoneal transport characteristics and residual renal function on peritoneal clearance and to determine the dialysis volume required to achieve targets for KT/V and weekly creatinine clearance (WCC) in patients with differing weights, renal function, and transport status. Retrospective analysis and mathematical model simulation of urea and creatinine clearance were used. This review demonstrates the important contribution of both residual renal function and peritoneal transport in attaining target values for KT/V and WCC. The limitations of a standard 4 x 2 L dialysis prescription are highlighted in anuric patients and those with low peritoneal transport. In addition, the limitations of short dwell, rapid exchange dialysis modalities are emphasized, especially in patients with low and low average peritoneal transport where daily clearance is demonstrated to be considerably less than conventional continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Attainment of proposed targets for KT/V (1.7) and WCC (50 L) is greatly dependent on residual renal function. In CAPD, peritoneal transport characteristics determine urea clearance through an effect on ultrafiltrate. Thus low transporters of identical weight will have greater values for peritoneal dialysis KT/V. Creatinine clearance is considerably influenced by transport status. The majority of low and low average groups will need some degree of renal function to achieve currently proposed targets. In these patients, conversion to high volume, short dwell modalities will further compromise small solute clearance unless daytime long dwells or tidal dialysis is instigated.

Dialysis is not the ideal renal replacement therapy because it does not fully restore all kidney functions. Increasing evidence suggests that preservation of residual renal function is associated with a survival benefit, a decrease in morbidity, better nutrition, a lower level of inflammatory markers, an improved quality of life, and cost savings by obviating the need for more peritoneal dialysis exchanges and possibly by reducing the requirement for antihypertensive agents, phosphate binders, and erythropoietin. In the present article, we review the impact of residual renal function on patient outcomes and the renoprotective strategies available in patients on peritoneal dialysis.

BackgroundResidual renal function (RRF) affects sodium and fluid balance. The aim of this analysis was to examine the impact of RRF on the effect of a sodium-reduced peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) on blood pressure (BP).MethodsThis is a post-hoc analysis of a prospective, randomized, controlled double-blind clinical trial with 82 patients on continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) treated with a low-sodium (125 mmol/L Na) or a standard-sodium (134 mmol/L Na) PDF. Subgroups according to glomerular filtration rate (GFR) at baseline (≤ / > 6 mL/min/1.73 m2) were analyzed for BP and antihypertensive medication.ResultsIn the low-GFR group on low-sodium PDF ( N = 26), systolic BP was reduced from 152 ± 24 mmHg at baseline to 137 ± 21 mmHg at week 12, diastolic BP from 90 ± 16 mmHg to 83 ± 11 mmHg. In the low-GFR group on standard-sodium PDF and in the high-GFR group on both PDF types, only minor changes were observed. For the low-GFR subgroup, the confounder-adjusted mean study group difference in systolic BP at week 12 between low-sodium and standard-sodium PDF was -16.9 (95% confidence interval [CI] -27.2 to -6.6) mmHg, for diastolic BP, it was -7.0 (95% CI -12.6 to -1.4) mmHg. In both GFR subgroups, more patients had a reduced daily dose of antihypertensive medication and fewer patients an increased daily dose in the low-sodium compared with the standard-sodium group at week 12.ConclusionsThe reduction of BP with a sodium-reduced PDF seems to be more effective in patients with no or low RRF than in patients with residual capacity of renal sodium and fluid control.

ObjectiveResidual renal function (RRF) is associated with low oxidative stress in peritoneal dialysis (PD). In the present study, we investigated the relationship between the impact of oxidative stress on RRF and patient outcomes during PD.MethodsLevels of free radicals (FRs) in effluent from the overnight dwell in 45 outpatients were determined by electron spin resonance spectrometry. The FR levels, clinical parameters, and the level of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine were evaluated at study start. The effects of effluent FR level on technique and patient survival were analyzed in a prospective cohort followed for 24 months.ResultsLevels of effluent FRs showed significant negative correlations with daily urine volume and residual renal Kt/V, and positive correlations with plasma β2-microglobulin and effluent 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine. A highly significant difference in technique survival ( p < 0.05), but not patient survival, was observed for patients grouped by effluent FR quartile. The effluent FR level was independently associated with technique failure after adjusting for patient age, history of cardiovascular disease, and presence of diabetes mellitus ( p < 0.001). The level of effluent FRs was associated with death-censored technique failure in both univariate ( p < 0.001) and multivariate ( p < 0.01) hazard models. Compared with patients remaining on PD, those withdrawn from the modality had significantly higher levels of effluent FRs ( p < 0.005).ConclusionsElevated effluent FRs are associated with RRF and technique failure in stable PD patients. These findings highlight the importance of oxidative stress as an unfavorable prognostic factor in PD and emphasize that steps should be taken to minimize oxidative stress in these patients.

Background: Peritoneal dialysis is used regularlly in treatment of ESRDs. Residual renal function (RRF) in these patients helps the adequacy of PD therapy very much. Objectives: 1. Study RRF of PD patients at Department of Nephro – Rheumatology, Hue Central Hospital. 2. Search the correlation between RRF and Kt/V. Patients and methods: 35 PD patients at Department of Nephro – Rheumatology, Hue Central Hospital. Measure RRF and Kt/V by formulars that depend on blood, urine and PD fluid samples. Results: Mean RRF of PD patients is 4.36 ± 13.8 ml/minute. There is a close correlation between RRF and Kt/V (r=0.79, p<0.01). Conclusion: RRF in PD patients correlates with Kt/V.
