  • Patent number: 8123715
    Abstract: The present invention is a peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis hybrid-remedy planning method using an index that is shared by both peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis and indicates an effect of dialysis. To be specific, the index is M/C(0)/VB, which is obtained by dividing a ratio M/C(0)—where M is a removal amount of a solute for a fixed time period, and C(0) is a concentration of the solute in blood before the dialysis—by a patient's body fluid volume, VB. The present invention is capable of representing the dialysis effect of PD and HD as an integrated sum, and achieving concise and explicit PD and HD hybrid-remedy planning.

  • Publication number: 20110213561
    Abstract: The present invention is a peritoneal function testing method characterized by using a ratio MTACun/MTACc calculated using MTACun and MTACc as an index for a peritoneal function test, where MTACun is an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for urea nitrogen and MTACc is an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for creatinine. The use of MTACun/c of the present invention in this way enables examination of the future peritoneal function of a patient (a mechanism of deterioration in peritoneal function). To be specific, MTACun and MTACc can be obtained by computing Pyle-Popovich model. In addition, the peritoneal function testing method may further calculate a permeability coefficient for cell pores (LPSC) and an overall permeability coefficient (LPS) from Three-Pore Theory model while obtaining a ratio LPSC/LPS calculated using the LPSC and the LPS, and may use the LPSC/LPS ratio and the MTACun/MTACc ratio as indexes for the peritoneal function test.

  • Patent number: 7704224
    Abstract: A peritoneal function testing method of using a ratio MTACun/MTACc calculated using MTACun and MTACc as an index for a peritoneal function test. MTACun is an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for urea nitrogen and MTACc is an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for creatinine. Use of the MTACun/MTACc ratio enables examination of the future peritoneal function of a patient (a mechanism of deterioration in peritoneal function). MTACun and MTACc are obtained using a Pyle-Popovich model. The peritoneal function testing method further calculates a permeability coefficient for cell pores (LPSC) and an overall permeability coefficient (LPS) from a Three-Pore Theory model to obtain a ratio LPSC/LPS calculated using the LPSC and the LPS, and further uses the LPSC/LPS ratio and the MTACun/MTACc ratio as indexes for the peritoneal function test.

  • Publication number: 20090271119
    Abstract: It is intended to provide a method whereby the peritoneal function of a dialysis patient can be tested by a relatively easy procedure and yet a high accuracy can be achieved compared with the existing methods, and an apparatus for the peritoneal function test by using the same. Standards of four kinetic parameters (CCr, Kt/V, MTACu, and MTACc) available in a definite dialysis guideline are computed in accordance with the relational expression (formula (7)). The curve showing the relation between MTACu/c thus obtained and the drained fluid volume is indicated in a graph together with the PET data of the patient which has been prepared separately. Thus, the peritoneal function can be evaluated based on the relative position of the patient's data and the curve showing the standard values in the graph.
