  • Title: Acute peritoneal dialysis in preterm newborns and small infants: surgical management.
    Author: Huber R, Fuchshuber A, Huber P.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 1994 Mar; 29(3):400-2. PubMed ID: 8201508.
    Abstract:
    Experience with acute peritoneal dialysis gathered over the last 10 years shows that, in 63 premature newborns and infants (up to 1 year of age), a standardized surgical procedure using a silicone catheter with a Dacron cuff (individually glued to fit) has a lower complication rate and is more effective than placement of a trocar catheter.
