Peritoneal Dialysis

2006
In 2006, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis was used to treat 11% of all dialysis patients (12% in 2005), and automated peritoneal dialysis 11% (9% in 2005). Together, these accounted for 69% of all home dialysis, a figure which has remained stable for the past number of years (Figure 6.1).

Peritoneal dialysis

Nursing Standard, 2005
Peritoneal dialysis has much to offer patients with chronic renal failure who wish to manage their care and live relatively independent lives. The authors discuss different peritoneal dialysis treatments, patient selection, benefits and the management of potential complications.

The Dialysis Catheter and Infectious Peritonitis in Intermittent Peritoneal Dialysis

Archives Of Physiology And Biochemistry, 1984
118 episodes of infectious peritonitis registered among 156 patients treated with intermittent peritoneal dialysis over a 5-yr period were analysed with special reference to potential routes of infection associated with the dialysis catheter. Peritonitis was randomly distributed among the patients, and the change of keeping free of peritonitis declined

The Peritoneal Microcirculation in Peritoneal Dialysis

Microcirculation, 2001
ABSTRACTThis paper deals with the peritoneal microcirculation and with peritoneal exchange occurring in peritoneal dialysis (PD). The capillary wall is a major barrier to solute and water exchange across the peritoneal membrane. There is a bimodal size‐selectivity of solute transport between blood and the peritoneal cavity, through pores of radius ∼40 ...

A Comparison between Intermittent Peritoneal Dialysis and Automatic Peritoneal Dialysis on Urgent Peritoneal Dialysis

American Journal of Nephrology, 2017
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Urgent-start dialysis is a major problem for incident dialysis population. Urgent start on hemodialysis is associated with an increased risk of infectious or mechanical complications, and its mortality is equal to or higher than that of urgent start on peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Adequacy of peritoneal dialysis

Advances in Renal Replacement Therapy, 2000
The National Kidney Foundation-Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiatives guidelines have standardized many aspects of treating end-stage renal disease patients with peritoneal dialysis in an attempt to improve overall patient outcome. While recommending certain total solute clearance goals, the guidelines have also pointed out deficiencies in our knowledge

Adequacy of Peritoneal Dialysis

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1996
Landmark studies relevant to the adequacy of peritoneal dialysis have recently been published. The Canada/USA peritoneal dialysis study has shown a relationship between clearance indices and patient survival rate, but the study is confounded by residual renal function.

Peritoneal dialysis without a physical peritoneal dialysis unit

Clinical Nephrology, 2010
Under certain circumstances when patients need peritoneal dialysis (PD) but no physical unit or official staff are available, one has to improvise ways to serve such patients. In this study we describe our experience with such patients without a physical peritoneal dialysis unit.Since 1997 we trained 33 patients, mean age 61.7 +/- 12.8 years old ...
