腹膜透析(peritoneal dialysis，PD)是一种简单安全有效的肾脏替代治疗(renal replacement therapy，RRT)方式之一。自动化腹膜透析(automated peritoneal dialysis，APD)作为新型的PD 模式，能有效纠正急性肾损伤(acute renal injury,AKI)所致代谢、酸碱及电解质紊乱，是特殊AKI 患者首选透析模式。本文就APD在AKI 患者的合理运用进行概括

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is one of the simple, safe and efficient renal replacement therapies (RRT). Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) is a new modality of PD which can successfully improve the acute kidney injury (AKI)-induced metabolic, electrolytic and acid-base disturbances and is the first choice for some specific AKI patients. In this article, we discuss the rational use of APD in AKI patients.
