Abstract

Three patients with chronic uremia and one patient with glutethimide intoxication were treated by peritoneal dialysis at the Prince Edward Island Hospital, Charlottetown. The procedure was discovered to be technically simple and was carried on in one instance for five days and in another for six days without undue difficulty. The dialysis was initiated by the authors on each occasion, but was carried on by graduate nurses under supervision. It is concluded that this procedure is practical and of value for use in relatively small non-teaching hospitals, provided one or more members of the medical staff become familiar with the indications, technical details and complications of the procedure.
