Management of high peritoneal transporters.
High transporters on chronic peritoneal dialysis are challenged by increased protein losses, high glucose absorption with associated metabolic abnormalities, and poor ultrafiltration. Furthermore, the relative risk of mortality and technique failure is higher in high transporters than in patients of other transport types. An approach for satisfactory management of such patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) has not been clearly demonstrated.
