[Dosage of erythropoietin in children treated with hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis].
The authors compared the efficacy of erythropoietin (EPO) in a standard dose of 50 U/kg/week used in children undergoing haemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). It was concluded that this dose is suitable for children on CAPD. Hemoglobin increased to > 10 g% and Ht > 30% after 8 weeks in 83% of patients and in all of the treated patients after 12 weeks.
