Peritoneal equilibration test with conventional 'low pH/high glucose degradation product' or with biocompatible 'normal pH/low glucose degradation product' dialysates: does it matter?

Peritoneal transport of water and small solutes is independent of the type of dialysate which is used. This is not the case for the transport of beta-2-microglobulin and albumin that is higher under biocompatible dialysates. Vascular tonus modification could potentially explain such differences. The PET should therefore always be carried out with the same dialysate to make longitudinal comparisons possible.
