    Author: Tam P.
    Journal: Perit Dial Int; 2009 Feb; 29 Suppl 2():S108-10. PubMed ID: 19270196.
    Abstract:
    Residual renal function (RRF) is now generally recognized as an important factor in the prognosis of patients on dialysis. This review summarizes the differences between peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) with regard to RRF. The literature supports PD as having a more beneficial effect on RRF.
