Abstract

The ideal calcium concentration in dialysate to achieve a satisfactory Ca balance in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is unknown and calcium peritoneal mass transfer (Ca PMT) studies in CAPD patients have revealed conflicting results ranging from negative(1, 2) to positive Ca balance at varying degrees.(3–9) Many factors have been reported to affect Ca PMT: total and ionized serum Ca, serum protein and albumin levels, concentration of protein in the peritoneal fluid, dialysate Ca concentration, and ultrafiltrate volume. The purpose of this study was to evaluate Ca PMT in CAPD patients and investigate the role of factors that might affect this balance.
