A member asked:
Would heating up the peritoneal dialysis fluid cause any harm if used for dialysis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Overnight PD is!: When using an overnight automatic cycler for peritoneal dialysis, the fluid is warmed on a warming panel. Of course, this is set to a safe temperature by design. Don't try warming on your own, but ask your nephrologist or the nurses at your dialysis center what they suggest. LGromkoMD
