Insulin-dependent diabetics with renal failure have a relatively poor long-term survival. The basic issue, therefore, is quality of life. CAPD allows the patient to be independent. The procedure can be performed as well by the blind as by a sighted patient and thus is available to blind diabetics. Intraperitoneal insulin offers a safe, consistent and convenient control of the blood sugar. Our experience suggests that continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is the dialytic treatment of choice for the majority of insulin-dependent diabetic patients.
