[Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis treatment and blood glucose control in diabetics with end-stage diabetic nephropathy].
6 patients with end-stage diabetic nephropathy were treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The results showed that CAPD is a safe and effective therapeutic method for elderly uremic diabetics even with congestive heart failure or acute myocardial infarction. We also compared the insulin dosages and blood glucose levels in these patients treated with three routes of insulin administration. Good control of blood glucose was obtained by giving insulin subcutaneously or through dialysis tubes.
