After signing informed consent form, the patients will be started on Renogen® at 150 units/kg/week. Oral iron supplements will be started at 105 mg elemental iron per day. If the patients will not have an increase in Hb by 1-2 g/dl or an increase in the reticulocyte count after the first month of treatment, the dose of Renogen® will be increased to 200 units/kg/week. If there will still be no increase in the Hb or reticulocyte count in the second month, other causes of anemia will be ruled out. If the Hb/Hct will increase beyond the target, the Renogen® dose will be reduced by 50 units/kg/week. If the Hb/Hct will be below target, the Renogen® dose will be increased by 50 units/kg/week.

The Effect on Vascular Reactivity Using the Erythropoeitin Alpha on Incident Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

A Study on the Effect of Hemoglobin Level and the Vascular Reactivity Using th Generic Erythropoeitin Alpha (Renogen) on Incident Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

We will measure the baseline hemoglobin level and the status of the flow mediated-dilatation of the brachial artery. We will assess the status of hemoglobin level and the flow mediated dilatation at the end of the study and show assess its correlation.

We will assess if the erythropoietin alpha (Renogen) is effective in maintaining the target hemoglobin level of the study every month. Included in the assessment are the abrupt increase or decrease of the hemoglobin level

We will monitor the average baseline blood pressure of the patient at baseline. During the study period of 3 months, blood pressure of the patients will also be monitored if there is increase of blood pressure from baseline
