TPD (acronym)

| Definition |
Some dialytic cyclers have an additional function whereby after the initial inflow, not all the fluid is allowed to drain. The subsequent inflow volumes are correspondingly reduced and after a preset number of cycles complete drainage occurs. Therefore, for a period some of the dialysate remains in the abdomen. This technique is called tidal PD *Tidal Peritoneal Dialysis (TPD)*. TPD can lead to an increase in clearance by 10 to 40 per cent. This is achieved with a portion of dialysate being drained and then replaced by fresh peritoneal-dialysis fluid with each cycle. The majority of the dialysate is in constant contact with the peritoneal membrane until the end of the dialysis *Tidal Peritoneal Dialysis*. Tidal peritoneal dialysis consists of the repeated installation of small tidal volumes of dialysis fluids with the use of an automated cycler. The procedure is usually performed nightly (NTPD)

| Context |
Tidal PD, in which a constant reserve volume of dialysis fluid remains in the peritoneal cavity, on top of which a tidal volume of dialysis solution is exchanged, is theoretically better, but results have been disappointing in practice
