*Newer PD fluids and constituents.*


The Euro-Balance trial, demonstrated improved residual renal function together with decreased peritoneal UF with the pH neutral, low GDP fluid, as compared to the first generation, acidic high GDP solution [18]. The BalANZ trial has shown a lower risk of anuria and lower ultrafiltration and higher solute clearance rates with the use of low GDP fluid during the first 9 months of PD. Peritonitis incidence and severity were reduced in the BalANZ trial [19]. The TRIO trial comparing biocompatible solution (Gambrosol Trio) to standard PD fluid (Dianeal) showed contrasting results with slower rated of GFR decline but with higher peritonitis rate.
