Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

American Journal of Nephrology, 1981
CAPD has stimulated much interest because of conceptual and practical developments over the last decade. The growth of CAPD also demonstrates that hemodialysis as practices at the present time is not completely satisfactory for many patients and CAPD helps to fill a need. CAPD may not be the ultimate favorite in most patients, but may continue to offer

Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1994
Many patients with end-stage renal disease are maintained on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). This technique offers a number of advantages over hemodialysis, but it is associated with certain potential complications. Peritonitis and other infectious complications are the most commonly seen in the emergency department.

Peritonitis in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Scottish Medical Journal, 1986
The main complication of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is peritonitis. This paper describes our experience in the diagnosis and management of this complication in 66 patients during the three years to October 1982. The overall incidence of peritonitis was one episode every 6.75 patient months. Staphylococcus albus and Staphylococcus

Peritonitis with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1984
The frequency and cause of peritonitis in 18 children receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and nine children receiving continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD) are described. Cumulative CAPD and CCPD experience demonstrated 58 episodes of peritonitis in 294 patient treatment months (one case per 5.1 patient treatment months).

Acute hydrothorax in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis--a collaborative study of 161 centers.

American Journal of Nephrology, 1989
Follow-up studies on 3,195 patients from 161 centers in Japan undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) were performed for 1-104 months to clarify the incidence as well as the clinical features of acute hydrothorax. In these studies, 50

Peritonitis in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1983
Peritonitis is the most important complication of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). We reviewed our experience with peritonitis over a 2 1/2-year period. Our patients spent 4% of their total time on dialysis in hospital due to peritonitis. Thirty-eight percent of the episodes of peritonitis were treated without hospitalization.
