Abstract
A phosphorus-enriched dialysate was used to intensively hemodialyze tw o non-uremic and non-hyperphosphatemic patients poisoned with ethylene glycol. As a consequence of the use of such a dialysate, eve were abl e to prevent a fail in plasma inorganic phosphorus levels in these pat ients in spite of the intensive dialytic therapy.
