Early Initiation of Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis in Patients Undergoing Surgical Implantation of Tenckhoff Catheters

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2011
♦ Background: Nephrologists commonly recommend continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) with break-in periods of at least 2 weeks. We investigated the safety and feasibility of shorter break-in periods following surgical implantation of Tenckhoff
