Abstract:
A manual administration set for acute peritoneal dialysis in infants and adults is disclosed which has a minimum of connections so as to minimize risk of infection and includes a heating means for patient comfort and performance of more efficient dialysis. The prepackaged set up for infants and small children contains volutroles within the tubing for the measurement of small volumes to be used in dialysis. The set up is capable of handling from one container up to four containers and will have sufficient tubing length to allow for any amount of movement of the child or the adult patient.
