Abstract

The efficacy of haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis was studied in 30 patients. Blood urea, serum creatinine, serum electrolytes and hydrogen ion concentration were used as parameters. Fifteen patients were haemodialysed while the remaining fifteen underwent peritoneal dialysis. Though the series is relatively small for any conclusions, it never-the-less strongly suggests that haemodialysis is superior to peritoneal dialysis in ameliorating the metabolic and biochemical derangement of acute as well as chronic renal failure.
