Large‐dose cyclic tidal peritoneal dialysis (TPD) is an original prescription of TPD involving frequent infusion and drainage of the dialysate to increase weekly urea clearance normalized to total body water (Kt/ V urea ) and fluid removal. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of solute clearance and fluid removal achieved with large‐dose cyclic TPD compared to that achieved with nightly peritoneal dialysis (NPD). Seventeen patients with end‐stage renal disease, for whom maintenance PD was changed from NPD to large‐dose cyclic TPD, were enrolled. Their median age at administration of PD was 4.9 years. Kt/ V urea and fluid removal were compared between large‐dose cyclic TPD and NPD. The median peritoneal Kt/ V urea achieved with NPD and large‐dose cyclic TPD was 1.5 and 2.7, respectively. The median peritoneal Kt/ V urea per hour with large‐dose cyclic TPD was significantly higher than that with NPD ( P = 0.0003). Among nine patients who used dialysates with the same glucose concentration for both NPD and large‐dose cyclic TPD, nightly fluid removal amount per hour with large‐dose cyclic TPD was significantly higher than that with NPD ( P = 0.0039). Large‐dose cyclic TPD is a useful prescription of PD for increasing Kt/ V urea and fluid removal.
