title: [Continuous peritoneal dialysis in acute kidney failure].
abstract: The continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has been proved as alternate method in the treatment of chronic end stage renal failure. This new form of continuous peritoneal dialysis can also be used in the treatment of acute renal failure; by CAPD-system you can reach a steady state in noncatabolic renal failure, in catabolic states the number of acute hemodialyses can be reduced. The main advantage of this continuous peritoneal dialysis is the simple practicability and the independence of machines.
