title: Weight management in patients on peritoneal dialysis.
abstract: In summary, patients on PD, along with their health care providers, can be taught tools to manage weight. These techniques include, but are not limited to, judicious use of dialysis solution to provide adequate dialysis and ultrafiltration with the least exposure to glucose, careful attention to diet including salt and calories consumed, and physical activity.
