Abstract
KIDNEY substitutes that are effective in the management of chronic renal failure are hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Scribner's technic for hemodialysis developed in 1958–59,1 employing an arteriovenous bypass, has been successfully used in a number of North American and European centers2 since 1960, maintaining selected patients in a relatively asymptomatic state; a number have been able to return to employment and ordinary activities. Apparatus suitable for home treatment is now being used by a few patients in Seattle and Boston.The method of closed intermittent peritoneal dialysis developed in 1951 by Grollman et al.3 for the treatment of acute renal . . .Keywords
