High Muscle Magnesium and Potassium in Long-Term Regular Dialysis Treatment

  • Chapter
Frontiers in Peritoneal Dialysis

  • 16 Accesses

Summary

Muscle potassium and magnesium concentrations were studied in 35 healthy subjects, 24 patients with chronic renal failure not treated by dialysis, and 35 patients on RDT subdivided according to the type of dialysis. The low muscle potassium in chronic renal failure is corrected by either hemodialysis or CAPD. In dialysis patients there is a progressive increase in muscle K and Mg that depends on the duration of RDT.
