  • Title: Optimal feeding for the malnourished CAPD patient.
    Author: Soni R.
    Journal: EDTNA ERCA J; 1997; 23(4):16-8, 21. PubMed ID: 9664017.
    Abstract:
    Protein-calorie malnutrition is present in a significant percentage of dialysis patients (1). In CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis) patients, constant glucose absorption from dialysate may displace other calorie sources, such as protein, and may suppress the appetite thus contributing to malnutrition.
