  • Title: Urea kinetic analysis and clinical outcome on CAPD. A five year longitudinal study.
    Author: Teehan BP, Schleifer CR, Brown JM, Sigler MH, Raimondo J.
    Journal: Adv Perit Dial; 1990; 6():181-5. PubMed ID: 1982804.
    Abstract:
    The present study, along with some recent studies, suggests that there is an organic link between the amount of dialysis a patient receives and his/her nutritional status. The latter, as reflected by serum albumin, is predictive of survival on CAPD. It is clear, therefore, that urea kinetic analysis is a powerful tool for prescribing and monitoring therapy in CAPD patients.
