7 men and 3 women (mean age 62 +/- 11 years) with end-stage renal disease, who were on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, underwent a peritoneal equilibration test to determine the rate of peritoneal ultrafiltration and creatinine transfer. The test is based on glucose absorption into the plasma from the peritoneal solution and the diffusion of creatinine into the peritoneal fluid after 2-4 hours. Patients with rapid absorption of glucose have low drain water ultrafiltration volumes but higher creatinine clearances, and therefore need adjustment of the therapy plan or else should be on hemodialysis. No correlation was found between the time the patients were on treatment and glucose absorption or creatinine diffusion.
