Catheter Access Management for Acute Peritoneal Dialysis. [PDF]
Insertion of a peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter is frequently done by interventional nephrologists, but these procedures are typically only performed for adults. Almost all invasive procedures in children are performed by pediatric surgeons. If a pediatric surgeon is unavailable, the initiation of PD in acute situations may be delayed, thus increasing

Peritoneal Dialysis in Acute Renal Failure
The definition of adequate dialysis in acute renal failure (ARF) is complex and involves the time of referral to dialysis, dose, and dialytic method. Nephrologist experience with a specific procedure and the availability of different dialysis modalities play an important role in these choices.

Peritoneal Dialysis in Acute Renal Failure [PDF]
Given the discussion so far, it might be apparent that factors beyond efficacy have dictated the decline in the use of PD for ARF. The importance of these factors should not be underestimated. They might be related to the perceived "labor intensive" aspect of PD, fear of a malfunctioning catheter (which in some instances may be real), insufficient ...

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been suggested as an effective and safe dialysis modality in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). However, whether PD is superior to extracorporeal therapy (e.g. haemodialysis) in terms of improving survival, recovery of kidney function, metabolic and clinical outcomes is still inconclusive.The aim of this review was to

Advances in Peritoneal Dialysis in Acute Kidney Injury
In the 1970s, acute peritoneal dialysis (PD) was widely accepted for the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI), but this practice has declined in favor of extracorporeal therapies, mainly in developed world. The lack of familiarity with the use of PD in critically ill patients has also led to a lack of use even among those receiving maintenance PD ...

Utilization of Peritoneal Dialysis in the Acute Setting
Peritoneal dialysis (PD), although classically described and utilized in the treatment of patients with end-stage renal disease, can also be utilized in the acute setting in different clinical situations. Recent studies showed that, in patients with acute renal failure, it is possible to obtain reasonable dialysis doses with adequate metabolic and ...
