Substitution of a Starch Polymer for Glucose in Peritoneal Dialysis

Jack E. Rubin, Quintus Jones, Angela Planch, John D. Bower et autres

We compared a starch-derived polymer (molecular weight = 900) as the osmotically active agent in peritoneal dialysate (3 and 6% solutions) to results obtained with commercially available glucose dialysate (1.5 and 4.25%). 12 dogs were dialyzed with glucose for 7 days, and …
