Peritoneal dialysis is considered a method of renal function substitution in veterinary medicine, with the role of continuous replacement of renal function through which a hydroelectrolytic and acid-base rebalancing of the feline patient with renal damage, in the absence of fulfilling the endocrine functions and kidney metabolism. The study included patients with stage 2 renal failure, identified in five cats, with stage 3 detected in five individuals, and with stage four detected in 20 felines and 20 cases with acute kidney damage. Peritoneal dialysis was implemented with an accommodation protocol represented by the administration of 15 ml/kg, followed by 30 ml/kg, 45 ml/kg and 60 ml/kg every 4 hours. Representative results were recorded during peritoneal dialysis sessions with 4 shifts per day, with 4 hours of shift time. Cumulative results on the complete analysis of the relevance of peritoneal dialysis on different stages of renal damage indicate a positive therapeutic response by decreasing the biochemical parameters of interest.
