Adequacy of Peritoneal Dialysis in Children

  • Chapter
CAPD/CCPD in Children

Abstract

Ever since the introduction of dialysis treatment for end-stage renal failure, efforts have been made to define the appropriate dose of blood purification. In this context, “adequacy” is used synonymously with “satisfactory” or “sufficient” and refers to the dose of dialysis below which a significant increase in morbidity and mortality would occur. Thus, dialysis adequacy refers to the minimally acceptable dose of dialysis, and should not be mixed up with “optimal” dialysis, i.e. the dose of blood purification beyond which no further improvement in the patient’s clinical wellbeing can be achieved.
