Quantifying Ultrafiltration in Peritoneal Dialysis Using the Sodium Dip
BACKGROUND: Volume overload is highly prevalent among patients treated with peritoneal dialysis, contributes to hypertension and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events and death in this population. As a result, optimizing peritoneal ultrafiltration is a key component of high-quality dialysis prescription. Osmotic conductance to glucose reflects the water transport properties
