Abstract Background: This study aimed to analyze the characteristics, outcomes and prognosis factors of survival in elderly peritoneal dialysis patients, so as to better understand the status of elderly peritoneal dialysis patients and improve their quality of life.Methods: This study was a prospective, observational study that included peritoneal dialysis (PD)patients.Categorizing by age, elderly group aged ≥ 65, younger group aged < 65. Clinical characteristics, survival and transferring to hemodialysis were compared between two groups.Meanwhile, risk factors for death in elderly PD patients were explored.Results: A total of 202 PD patients were enrolled, including 61 in elderly group and 141 in younger group. Among elderly individuals,serum albumin and normalized protein catabolic rate(nPCR) decreased, the incidence of previous cardiovascular, cerebrovascular diseases and Charlson Comorbidity Index(CCI) were higher.The major primary disease in elderly patients was diabetic nephropathy, significant differences were found between elderly and younger group(P < 0.01). The mortality in elderly group was substantially higher, 27 patients (44.3%) died in elderly group and 21 patients(14.3%) died in younger group .The 1-year,2-year,3-year,4-year survival rate were 81.97%, 70.49%, 60.66%, 55.74% respectively. Cardiovascular disease was the main cause of death in elderly PD patients. Higher BMI, CCI, and previous ischemic heart disease were risk factors for long-term survival of elderly PD patients. Compared with the younger group, elderly patients were less likely to transfer to hemodialysis: 2 cases (3.3%) in elderly group and 23 cases (16.3%) in younger group. Peritonitis was the primary reason for converting to hemodialysis(HD) in both two groups.Conclusions: Poor nutrition, more complications and diabetic nephropathy were characteristics of elderly PD patients. High BMI, CCI and previous ischemic heart disease were independent predictors of death in elderly PD patients. Cardiovascular disease was the main cause of death in elderly PD patients，while the chief reason of transferring to hemodialysis was peritonitis.
