摘要:
Peritoneal dialysis solutions including a glucose polymer and methods of using the dialysis solutions are disclosed herein. In a general embodiment, the peritoneal dialysis solution includes a glucose polymer in an amount to provide an increased ultrafiltration fluid volume for a given amount of carbohydrate absorbed compared to conventional dialysis solutions containing icodextrin as the active pharmaceutical ingredient. The increased ultrafiltration fluid volume for a given amount of carbohydrate absorbed is obtained by providing specific combinations of weight-average molecular weight, polydispersity index and concentration of the glucose polymer in the dialysis solution.
