Complications of Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]

RadioGraphics, 2009
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is used to treat end-stage renal failure in an increasing number of patients. CAPD has an advantage over hemodialysis in that it allows patients greater freedom to perform daily activities; it also provides other clinical benefits. However, the long-term effectiveness of CAPD is limited by complications,

Peritoneal Dialysis in Patients Supported by Left Ventricular Assist Device. [PDF]

Artif Organs
Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) has advantages over hemodialysis, including fewer infections and the comfort of the ambulant setting. This study illustrates that PD in LVAD patients is feasible and long‐term support up to several years is achievable without significant complications.

Effective and Lifesaving Retrograde Femoral and Jugular Vein Double-Lumen Catheter Insertion in Patients With Poor Hemodialysis Venous Access Who Needed Emergency Hemodialysis: A Case Series. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Retrograde femoral catheter insertion for hemodialysis access is an immediate rescue procedure and a short‐term solution to salvage life in compromised patients. This temporary solution could be reserved in resource‐limited regions until permanent dialysis routes are established.

Longitudinal changes in peritoneal solute transport rate and the impact of lower glucose degradation product glucose dialysates. [PDF]

Ther Apher Dial
Abstract Introduction Peritoneal solute transfer rates (PSTR) are reported to increase with time. Changes in PSTR were reviewed in long‐term peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to determine whether lower glucose degradation products (low GDP) dialysates prevented an increase in PSTR. Methods PSTR was determined with a 4‐h peritoneal equilibrium test with

Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

New England Journal of Medicine, 1988
Although successful long term treatment with peritoneal dialysis was first reported by Boen et al (1), it was not until the introduction of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) by Popovich, Moncrief and colleagues in 1976 (2), that the use of peritoneal dialysis for the management of patients in end-stage renal failure increased explosively.

Peritoneal dialysis catheter malposition: Iatrogenic vesical perforation

APIK Journal of Internal Medicine, 2023
Despite perceived disadvantage of percutaneous continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis catheter placement compared to its surgical placement, complications are very rare if done by a trained nephrologist under fluoroscope guidance. We present a case of

Peritoneal Dialysis with Marked Pneumoperitoneum

Case Reports in Nephrology, 2020
Pneumoperitoneum, the presence of free air within the peritoneal cavity, is often caused by the perforation of gas-containing viscus and commonly requires surgical treatment.

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2017
Background Peritoneal dialysis peritonitis remains a significant cause of morbidity for peritoneal dialysis patients and the main reason for conversion from peritoneal dialysis to hemodialysis.
