A number of reports (1-4) are available concerning the successful application of repeated hemodialysis. But most of the information on peritoneal dialysis to date has been obtained from lavage procedures lasting only for periods of hours to a few days (5-8).Investigations relative to the effect of long-term peritoneal dialysis on the peritoneum, and on the clinical and physiologic responses of the body as a whole, are beginning to be reported (9-15). An opportunity to study this problem was...References1. SCRIBNERBURICANERHEGSTROMBURNELL BHRJERJM: The treatment of chronic uremia by means of intermittent hemodialysis: a preliminary report. Trans.
