Dialysate Temperature in Peritoneal Dialysis

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (PD) are encouraged to warm dialysate to 37°C before peritoneal infusion; main international PD guidelines do not provide specific recommendation, and patients generally warm dialysate batches partially or do not warm them at all. Warming of dialysate is a time-consuming procedure, not free from potential risks (i.e. degradation of glucose), and should be justified by a clear clinical benefit. The investigators designed a single blind randomized controlled trial where PD patients were randomized to receive a peritoneal equilibration test either with dialysate at a controlled temperature of 37°C (intervention group) or with dialysate warmed with conventional methods (control group). Primary end-point was a higher peritoneal creatinine clearance in patients in the intervention group.
