Objective To evaluate the effect of a modified method of percutaneous catheter placement without a break-in procedure on the development of catheter-related complications in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Design A prospective, observational clinical study. Setting Peritoneal dialysis (PD) units of two university-based hospitals. Patients and Methods This study included 51 consecutive patients on CAPD. A straight double-cuffed Tenckhoff catheter with a straight intraperitoneal segment was used, and all catheters were inserted using a modified percutaneous placement method under local anesthesia. The catheter was introduced directly into the deep pelvis through an intramuscular tract, which had been created by tapered dilators. Peritoneal dialysis was initiated immediately after catheter insertion without a break-in procedure. Catheter-related complications were surveyed during the 12 months after initiation of CAPD. Results Within the first month, only 1 pericatheter leakage (1.9%) was detected. There were no cases of visceral perforation or severe hemorrhage during catheter insertions. Catheter malfunction due to catheter tip migration, exit-site infection, and peritonitis developed in only 1.9%, 3.9%, and 3.9% of patients, respectively. After 1 month following catheter insertion, no further incidences of pericatheter leakage occurred during the follow-up period. All catheters, except one that was reinserted due to tip migration, survived throughout the study period. Conclusion The rates of pericatheter leakage and other catheter-related complications are relatively low in CAPD patients using our percutaneous catheter placement method without a break-in procedure. This procedure is comparatively simple and less invasive than other catheter placement methods, and allows for immediate start of PD after catheter insertion, without a break-in procedure.

Abstract Background and Aims In the last ten years, peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been considered a safe option to start renal replacement therapy (RRT) in end-stage renal disease patients in need to start dialysis urgently. The definition applied to the Urgent Start PD (US-PD) varies widely worldwide. Recently, it was proposed that US-PD definition should be according to patients’ necessity of starting dialysis, considering “urgent start” when PD started up to 72 hours of catheter placement and “early start” PD when it is starts between 3 and 14 days after catheter placement. Considering this new definition, we aimed to compare demographical and clinical characteristics of patients´ that started PD therapy as urgent and early starts as well as 30-day complications, 6-month hospitalization and dropout rate. Method All adult patients that started PD therapy up to 14 days after catheter insertion in our institution between October 2016 and February 2019 were included in the analyses. Patients were placed on urgent-start (US-PD) group if therapy started until 72-h after catheter insertion or early-start (ES-PD) group if PD initiated between 3 and 14 days. Dialysis records were reviewed to obtain clinical and demographic data, fill volume prescribed for the first PD session, 30-days complications (leakage, bleeding, catheter tip migration and peritonitis) and 6-month hospitalization and dropout rate. Results In our study, 72 patients were analyzed (US-PD=52, ES-PD=20), mean age was 53.2 ± 15.2 years old. No differences between US-PD and ES-PD regarding demographic characteristics, 30-day complications and 6-month hospitalization and dropout events were found. The most frequent short-term complication in patients who started PD urgently was leakage (US-PD 6 (11%) x ES-PD 2(10%) patients). The most common cause of patient’s dropout was transfer to HD.Only patients from the US-PD group needed to switch to that modality (5 (10%)). Conclusion Almost three-quarters of our sample started PD less than 72 hours after catheter insertion. The lack of difference in the measured outcomes compared to patients that had therapy initiated after this period encourages the use of PD when urgent dialysis is needed.

Objective: To determine the outcome and complications of CAPD catheter implanted by open surgical technique for peritoneal dialysis. Methods: In this prospective study peritoneal dialysis catheter (PDC) for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis was inserted into the abdominal cavity using an open surgical approach. We described our experience of open surgical minimal invasive technique of CAPD catheterization from July 2012 to June 2015. Total 40 catheters were inserted successfully. Patients were followed up for a variable period of 3-36 months. Results: In this study common indications of CAPD catheter insertion were CKD-5 due to diabetic nephropathy, chronic glomerulonephritis, and hypertensive nephrosclerosis. Common catheter related complications were peritonitis, hypokalaemia, exit site infection, catheter malfunction. Late peritonitis remains the major drawback of PD treatment, with the need of temporary or permanent changeover to the HD treatment in 10% of the patients. Conclusion: Enrichment of the physician’s interest and experience, along with a multidisciplinary approach to outline the optimal strategy of PD-catheter insertion and management of complications may improve technique and patients’ survival and decrease the morbidity.

The prevention of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter complications is essential to achieve a successful outcome. In recent years, nephrologists have performed more PD catheter insertion surgeries in Japan. The prevention of catheter complications is crucial for nephrologists who do not have all-around surgical skills. PD catheter tip migration is a common complication and a significant cause of catheter malfunction. Several preventive techniques have been reported for the PD catheter tip migration. This perspective described the following: (1) surgical technique in laparotomy, (2) laparoscopic surgery, (3) peritoneal wall anchor technique, and (4) catheter type selection. We hope that more effective methods of preventing catheter complications will be developed to ensure the success of PD treatment.

The placement of percutaneous peritoneal dialysis catheters under direct peritoneoscopic visualization is a relatively new technique for establishing peritoneal dialysis access. In this study, in which a modification of the Seldinger technique was used to facilitate the placement of the peritoneoscope, the experience with 82 consecutive catheterization procedures in 78 patients is reported. In 2 (2.4%) of 82 catheterization procedures, we were unable to enter the peritoneal cavity but experienced no other complications unique to the percutaneous approach. Of the 80 successful catheterization procedures, 76 represented first-time catheter placement and constituted a population subjected to life-table analysis examining catheter survival rates, the time to first cutaneous exit site or s.c. tunnel infection, and the time to first episode of peritonitis. After a follow-up period of 50.1 patient yr, 11 catheters were lost because of catheter dysfunction. Other clinical complications included peritoneal fluid leaks at the cutaneous exit site in 11 instances (0.22/patient yr), cutaneous exit site infection in 7 instances (0.14/patient yr), s.c. tunnel infection in 2 instances (0.04/patient yr), and 34 episodes of peritonitis (0.68/patient yr). The results of this study demonstrate that the suggested modification of the percutaneous placement of peritoneal dialysis catheters, under peritoneoscopic visualization, is a viable method for establishing peritoneal access.

Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) as a treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) provides a competitive alternative to hemodialysis (HD). Long-term catheter survival remains challenging and techniques are not standardized. Advanced laparoscopic placement with fixation and omentectomy might increase catheter survival. The goal of our study was to evaluate if selective infracolic omentectomy and fixation reduced complications after CAPD catheter placement. Materials and Methods A prospective database of patients with CAPD catheter placement from March 2004 to March 2015 was analyzed. All procedures were performed laparoscopically assisted and under general anesthesia by a single surgeon. 78 patients were included, there were no exclusion criteria. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS. Fisher exact test and log-rank test with calculation of P-value was executed. P-value of <0.05 was considered significant. Results Of the 78 patients who underwent catheter placement, 53 (68%) were males and 25 (32%) were females. The mean age was 54 (ranged from 13 to 88 years). Selective infracolic omentectomy was performed in 32 patients if the momentum reached beyond the promontory. Non-resorbable sutures to fix the catheter were applied in 33 patients. The average duration of peritoneal dialysis was 21 months (range from ten days to 84 months). Omentectomy significantly reduced the incidence of catheter obstruction (3 vs. 11%, P=0.028) but not of catheter dislocation (19 vs. 30%, P=0.101). Omentectomy did not significantly increase the incidence of peritonitis (22 vs. 31%,P=0.133) or exit-site infection (16vs 17%, P=0.238). Catheter fixation with non-resorbable sutures reduced catheter dislocation (21 vs. 23%, P=0.226) and catheter obstruction( 12 vs.17%,P=0.223) with a significant reduction of peritonitis (15 vs. 29%, P=0.044) and no effect on exit-site infection (15 vs. 17%,P=0.251). Conclusion Laparoscopic PD catheter placement with selective omentectomy and fixation of the catheter to the abdominal wall is safe and feasible and leads to fewer complications. Key words: peritoneal, dialysis, catheter, complications, laparoscopy, omentectomy.

Abstract Background and Aims Infection-related complications, such as exit-site infection (ESI) and peritonitis, are one of the main causes of technique failure and dropout in patients under peritoneal dialysis. Several studies have demonstrated the positive effect of daily topical antibiotics (AB) in preventing ESI. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the impact of topical gentamicin (TG) in preventing ESI, between 2009 and 2019, in a single-center of a medium-sized hospital in Portugal. Method Descriptive and retrospective analysis was performed. Demographic data, comorbidities, type of catheter placement and PD prescription were collected. For each patient, it was determined the time free of prophylactic AB (NTG) and under topical gentamicin (ophthalmic formula, once a day, applied on exit site). ESI cases were identify. Results Eighty-five patients were included, with a mean age of 53.2 ± 14.6 years; 69.5% were male. Cardiovascular comorbidities, like arterial hypertension and diabetes, were highly prevalent (88.2% and 76.5% respectively). Chronic glomerulonephritis and diabetes were the main causes of CKD (19; 22.4%; 15; 17.6%). More than 80% of the patients had previous Nephrology follow up. Percutaneous approach was the first option to catheter placement in 70.6% of the cases and DPA was performed in 53,0%. Every patient started the PD program free of prophylactic AB (n=85); 35 patients started TG at some point. Forty episodes of ESI were recorded, 39 (97.5%) in the NTG group. Staphylococcus aureus was the most frequently identified organism (16; 41.0%), followed by Staphylococcus epidermis (5; 12.5%) and Corynebacterium (5; 12.5%). The Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that patients in TG were associated with better free-time of first peritonitis ((705 vs 985 days; p=0.001). The multivariate Cox regression model confirmed a 14 times higher risk of ESI in NTG group (HR 14.4; 95% CI 1.97-105.45; p=0.001). Conclusion Although mupirocin is still the first option in many centers, some studies have demonstrated a benefic role of gentamicin in reducing ESI, not only by Pseudomonas species but also Staphylococcus aureus. The results of our study confirmed that topical daily gentamicin is highly effective preventing ESI in PD patients. Despite of the concern with the gentamicin-resistant infections, just one patient developed ESI under gentamicin, and the identified microorganism was the Staphylococcus epidermidis.

Background We report here a one-stitch fixation method that prevents catheter tip migration during implantation of the double-cuffed straight Tenckhoff catheter. Methods From July 2003 to September 2005, 38 patients with end-stage renal disease underwent implantation of the double-cuff straight Tenckhoff catheter for peritoneal dialysis by this method. Results No patient had catheter tip migration out of the true pelvis. No patient had pericatheter dialysate leakage or developed incisional hernia. Two patients (5.3%) experienced exit-site infection during the 2- and 5-month follow-up and they recovered well after wound care. Three patients (7.9%) developed peritonitis during the 3-day and 2- and 6-month follow-up; the conditions were controlled after antibiotic care. One patient (2.6%) experienced mechanical catheter obstruction during the 10-day follow-up due to omental wrapping; surgical revision was necessitated. Conclusions We believe that the method is an easy, safe, and effective technique for preventing catheter tip migration.

Abstract Background Appropriate timing of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter implantation and PD initiation is important. Several guidelines suggest starting PD at least 2 weeks after PD catheter implantation. Recently, urgent-start PD is widespread throughout the world. However, the ideal time to start PD after laparoscopic catheter implantation is not known. We investigated the safety and feasibility of early initiation (within 7 days) PD following laparoscopic peritoneal catheter implantation. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent laparoscopic PD catheter implantation at the Kyoto University Hospital from January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2016. Based on when PD was initiated, the patients were divided into two groups, namely, early group, ≤ 7 days and late group, > 7 days after catheter implantation. Catheter-related complications and catheter survival were analyzed. Results We analyzed 29 and 26 patients in early and late groups, respectively. The age, sex, the incidence of diabetes and APD, and the follow-up period were not significantly different between the two groups. The interval from catheter implantation to the start of PD was 4.28 ± 1.83 and 162 ± 157.8 days in the early and late groups, respectively (P < 0.01). In a late group, 17 patients (65.4%) underwent catheter implantation using the Moncrief–Popovich technique. The use of bridge hemodialysis was higher in the early group (P < 0.01). No patients developed dialysate leakage in both groups, and no significant differences were observed for catheter malfunction (24.1% vs. 19.2%, P = 0.66), exit-site infection (ESI, 24.1% vs. 28%, P = 0.87), and peritonitis (7.14% vs. 8.0%, P = 0.91) within 6 months. Furthermore, early initiation of PD did not increase the risk of ESI, peritonitis, and PD withdrawal at 1, 2, and 5 years compared to that in the late group. Conclusions Urgent-start of PD with laparoscopic catheter implantation did not increase infection-related complications and PD withdrawal. Laparoscopic PD catheter implantation may allow the initiation of PD earlier than 7 days after implantation.
