Summary
Patients undergoing maintenance haemodialysis exhibited at a regular level of ascorbic acid in plasma a decreased concentration of ascorbic acid in leukocytes. Therefore, the ascorbic acid should be administered in a high dosage to patients undergoing chronic haemodialysis, in order to prevent a vitamin-C deficiency in leukocytes.
Zusammenfassung
Patienten mit chronischer Hämodialysebehandlung zeigten bei einem regelrechten Ascorbinsäurewert im Plasma eine herabgesetzte Konzentration der Ascorbinsäure in den Leukozyten. Daher sollte die Ascorbinsäure diesen Patienten in hoher Dosierung zugeführt werden, um einen Vitamin-C-Mangel in den Leukozyten zu verhindern.
