Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for preparing a ready-to-use peritoneal dialysis fluid for peritoneal dialysis of a patient having a deficiency in potassium. The methods comprise mixing, immediately before administration to the patient, appropriate amounts of at least a first concentrate, a second concentrate, and a third concentrate with an appropriate amount of water to form a ready-to-use dialysis fluid. The first concentrate comprises glucose, has a pH of between 1.5 and 4, and is free of potassium ions; the second concentrate comprises a physiologically acceptable buffer and is free of potassium ions; and the third concentrate comprises the physiologically acceptable buffer and potassium ions.
