Peritoneal dialysis for AKI remains an important form of AKI treatment especially in the setting of small infants as well as low- and middle-income countries where extracorporeal facilities may not easily be available. The gold standard is a Tenckhoff catheter placed by a surgeon with training in this area in a sterile environment and then commencing ...

Advances in Peritoneal Dialysis in Acute Kidney Injury

Blood Purification, 2012
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a simple, safe, cheap, and efficient renal replacement therapy method. It can correct metabolic disorders and fluid overload in acute kidney injury (AKI) patients both in and out of the intensive care unit. Use of PD in AKI is enhanced by placement of a Tenckhoff catheter, which can be safely accomplished at the bedside ...

Peritoneal dialysis in neonates with acute renal failure

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1988
Twenty outborn neonates were dialysed for ARF over a period of two years. Acute gastroenteritis (60%) and septicemia (90%) were the leading cause of ARF. Metabolic encephalopathy and uncompensated metabolic acidosis were present in all, and hyperkalemia in 60 percent of the neonates.

Acute pancreatitis in peritoneal dialysis

European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2012
Abdominal pain with a discoloured dialysate in a patient on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is usually attributed to infective peritonitis. Although acute pancreatitis (AP) is not usually a complication of end-stage renal disease, some studies suggest an increased risk especially in patients on PD.

Acute Central Hemodynamic Effects of Peritoneal Dialysis

2009
The supposed lack of a hemodynamic impact of peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been challenged recently in different studies, although the observed effects are still far below those seen on hemodialysis (HD), and the underlying mechanisms are unclear.Literature overview based on Pubmed search with key words 'peritoneal dialysis, acute dwell, hemodialysis ...
