Atrial natriuretic peptide (anp) as an additive to peritoneal dialysis solutions

摘要

The present invention provides a peritoneal dialysis solution that contains atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), a derivative of ANP, an analogue of ANP, a substance that binds ANP to clearance receptors or a substance that promotes ANP synthesis, which results in an increased net ultrafiltration and increased sodium clearance experienced in peritoneal dialysis patients.
