Kt/V.Peritoneal Dialysis:Ratio:Pt: Patient:Qn:Percent of body weightLOINC code
Preferred Label : Kt/V.Peritoneal Dialysis:Ratio:Pt: Patient:Qn:Percent of body weight;
LOINC status : TRIAL;
LOINC long common name : Kt/V.Peritoneal Dialysis [Percent of body weight];
LOINC description : Indicates the Kt/V urea (dialysate and urine clearance) at the time the Kt/V PD adequacy
measurement was performed. K (clearance) multiplied by t (time) is a volume (since
mL/min x min mL, or L/hr x hr L), and (K x t) can be thought of as the mL or L
of fluid (blood in this case) cleared of urea (or any other solute) during the course
of a single treatment. V also is a volume, expressed in mL or L. So the ratio of K
x t / V is a so-called dimensionless ratio and can be thought of as a multiple of
the volume of plasma cleared of urea divided by the distribution volume of urea. When
Kt/V 1.0, a volume of blood equal to the distribution volume of urea has been completely
cleared of urea.;
