Popis: The long-term effect of an AA solution based on Tra-vasol®, a solution for total parenteral nutrition, given in-traperitoneally over a 6-month period was studied in 5 patients 22 to 75 years old, having been on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) for 3 to 57 months. A low oral protein intake ( 0.05). We conclude that intraperitoneal overnight administration of 2 L of 1% AA based on Travasol® over 6 months did not improve the nutritional status of CAPD patients. This ineffectiveness might be due to the AA composition of the solution, the timing of administration, or to a low caloric intake and/or that our patients were not severely malnourished.
