title: [Causes and clinical implications of hypervolemia in peritoneal dialysis].
abstract: In our paper we present actual data from world literature as well as own experiences with respect to chronic hypervolemia as a very important clinical problem in peritoneal dialysis. We discussed the causes and clinical picture of hypervolemia as well as differential diagnosis of ultrafiltration failure as a potential cause of hypervolemia in peritoneal dialysis patients. Special attention was paid to the kinetic modelling of sodium and water removal in peritoneal dialysis.
