Summary

The study is a proof-of-concept, a feasibility study of peritoneal ultrafiltration with a wearable device, Carry Life System Ultrafiltration (CLS UF) and will be performed on 4-6 stable peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients without clinical signs of dehydration. The study session starts with an initial fill of the abdomen, with a standard, glucose based PD solution. The CLS UF device is then connected to the patients existing, PD catheter. A Glucose-salt solution is added to 180 ml of the intraperitoneal fluid which is intermittently transferred from the peritoneal cavity through a closed system using the CLS UF cycler and then returned to the patient. The addition of the Glucose-salt solution maintains a stable intraperitoneal osmolarity and compensates for the glucose uptake and dilution which occurs in standard PD treatments.
