In this paper we describe an experimental model designed for studies of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in uremic rabbits. We preferred the study of uremic animals because it is not known whether peritoneal membrane differs between normal and uremic animals. Animals made uremic after bilateral nephrectomy could not survive on dialysis. Instead, partial nephrectomy of one kidney and partial (5/6) destruction of the cortex of the remaining kidney by electrocauterization provided a simple and reproducible model. CAPD resulted in adequate control of uremia but the animals showed significant decreases in total plasma proteins and weight. This model is suitable for studies of the metabolic complications of CAPD.
