Ambulatory dialysis from a GP viewpoint
Abstract
An in situ dialysis technique holds much hope for the future of patients with no kidney function. But the role of family practitioners in the use of the continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis technique (CAPD), is limited by its complexity. Like any other method of dialysis, CAPD necessitates the involvement of a knowledgeable team of physicians and nurses.
