    Journal: Proc Clin Dial Transplant Forum; 1980; 10():100-4. PubMed ID: 7346838.
    Abstract:
    Metabolic acidosis was demonstrated in a group of anuric CAPD patients. Dialysate HCO3- loss was the major determinant of a negative base balance of 26.4 +/- 23.5 mMol/day. Bicarbonate supplementation corrected the acidosis. A primary respiratory alkalosis was also present in several patients.
