Abstract
A peritoneal function testing method uses a ratio of MTAC/MTAC, calculated using MTACand MTAC, as an index for a peritoneal function test, wherein MTACis an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for urea nitrogen and MTACis an overall mass transfer-area coefficient for creatinine. The use of MTAC/MTACenables examination of the future peritoneal function of a patient (a mechanism of deterioration in peritoneal function). To be specific, MTACand MTACcan be obtained by computing a Pyle-Popovich model. In addition, the peritoneal function testing method further calculates a permeability coefficient for cell pores (LS) and an overall permeability coefficient (LS) from a Three-Pore Theory model while obtaining a ratio of LS/LS calculated using the LSand the LS. The LS/LS ratio and the MTAC/MTACratio can be used as indexes for the peritoneal function test.
