Peritoneal Dialysis Solution

This study was conducted on 44 dogs, aged between 10 months and 15 years, weighing between 0.9 and 8.5 kilograms,during 72 months. We created four batches of 11 dogs each. First batch received silicone peritoneal catheters with twoDacron cuffs, second batch received silicone peritoneal catheters without Dacron cuffs, third batch receivedpolypropylene peritoneal catheters with two Dacron cuffs and fourth batch received polypropylene peritoneal catheterswithout Dacron cuffs. All the dogs were treated with the same peritoneal dialysis solution, at the same interval, in thesame doses and at the same temperature and all the peritoneal catheters were straight Blake. In dogs from the firstbatch, we experienced minimum subcutaneous leaks of peritoneal dialysis solution and the catheters were permeablefor at least 90 days. In the second batch, we experienced constant and reduced subcutaneous leaks of peritonealdialysis solution and the catheters were permeable for at least 90 days. In the third batch, we experienced mediumsubcutaneous leaks of peritoneal dialysis solution and the catheters were permeable for at least 45 days. In the fourthbatch, we experienced important subcutaneous leaks of peritoneal dialysis solution and the catheters were permeablefor at most 15 days. The study conclusion is that the best peritoneal catheter it is represented by the silicone peritonealcatheters with two Dacron cuffs.

Abstract Background. A large body mass index (BMI) has been considered as a relative contraindication for percutaneous catheter insertion , although this technique has many advantages. Up to now, there are few studies on peritoneal catheter placement and obesity. The aim of this study was to determine whether patients with large BMI can also choose the percutaneous technique for peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion. Methods. 187 consecutive patients underwent peritoneal catheter insertions in the Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2016, with 178 eligible cases being included in the analysis. Two groups were created based on the catheter insertion techniques, the percutaneous group (group P) and the surgical group (group S). Subgroups were created according to BMI>28 or≤28. The outcomes included catheter related complications and catheter survival. Results. Total infectious complication rates were significantly lower in group P than in group S. The late peritonitis rates tended to be lower in group P than in group S, although the difference was not significant. There were no significant differences in all other measured complications between the two groups. Though the one-year infection-free catheter survival in group P was 7.5% higher than group S, the difference was not significant. The one-year dysfunction-free catheter survival, one-year dysfunction-and-infection-free catheter survival, and overall catheter survival were similar between the two groups. Subgroup analyses showed a superior one-year infection-free catheter survival of percutaneous technique in patients with BMI>28, which was confirmed by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Conclusions. Despite the challenges that may be encountered with patients who have a large BMI, the percutaneous technique is a safe and effective approach to placing a peritoneal dialysis catheter.

♦BackgroundThe objective of this study was to examine the effects of a conventional dialysis solution and peritoneal catheter on leukocyte- endothelial cell interactions in the microcirculation of the parietal peritoneum in a subacute peritoneal dialysis (PD) mouse model.♦MethodsAn intraperitoneal (IP) catheter with a subcutaneous injection port was implanted into mice and, after a 2-week healing period, the animals were injected daily for 6 weeks with a 2.5% dextrose solution. Intravital microscopy (IVM) of the parietal peritoneum microcirculation was performed 4 hours after the last injection of the dialysis solution. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions were quantified and compared with catheterized controls without dialysis treatment and naïve mice.♦ ResultsThe number of rolling and extravascular leukocytes along with peritoneal fibrosis and neovascularization were significantly increased in the catheterized animals compared with naïve mice but did not significantly differ between the 2 groups of catheterized animals with sham injections or dialysis solution treatment.♦ConclusionThe peritoneal catheter implant increased leukocyte rolling and extravasation, peritoneal fibrosis and vascularization in the parietal peritoneum independently from the dialysis solution treatment.

In two adolescents maintained on CAPD, infections of the peritoneal catheter tunnel were treated by an “unroofing” technique. The infections were eradicated without catheter removal or interruption of CAPD. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has produced a dramatic improvement in the care of patients with end-stage renal disease. Peritonitis remains a major complication and the most common cause of CAPD failure (1–3). Most episodes of peritonitis can be attributed to a break in the technique of bag exchanges; however, tunnel infections are also implicated (3,4). Tunnel infections are difficult to cure and, if persistent, may make necessary the removal of an otherwise well functioning catheter. We describe two patients with tunnel infections that were eradicated after “unroofing” of the Tenckhoff catheter.

Catheter Malfunction

Abstract Background Malfunction of the peritoneal dialysis catheter is frequently caused by dislocation. The diagnostic approach is classically based on abdomen X-ray together with detailed case history and physical examination. Despite being rarely applied in clinical practice to evaluate catheter misplacement, ultrasound is a noninvasive, radiation-free technique that is potentially useful also to explore reasons for catheter malfunction. Consequently, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound to identify peritoneal catheter misplacement. Methods In a multicenter observational blinded study, we compared ultrasound to abdomen X-ray for catheter localization in 93 consecutive peritoneal dialysis patients with dialysate outflow problems enrolled in two nephrology and dialysis units. The position of the catheter was annotated on a standard scheme of nine abdominopelvic regions. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value and Kappa coefficient were calculated. Results Dislocation out of the inferior abdominopelvic regions was present in 19 patients (20 %) at X-ray and 23 patients (25 %) at ultrasound. Correct determination of the position of the catheter in the lower abdomen by ultrasound had a sensitivity of 93 % (95 % CI 84 – 97 %), specificity of 95 % (95 % CI 72 – 100 %), positive predictive value of 99 % (95 % CI 91 – 100 %), negative predictive value of 78 % (95 %CI 56 – 92 %) and Kappa coefficient of 0.82 (95 % CI 0.67 – 0.96). In 10 out of 93 patients (11 %), there was a position mismatch between X-ray and ultrasound in an adjacent abdominopelvic region. Conclusion Our results suggest that abdomen X-ray for the evaluation of peritoneal catheter position can be replaced by ultrasound in experienced hands. This bedside diagnostic procedure might reduce costs, the time necessary for diagnosis and lifetime radiation exposure.

Abstract : In 1993 , Moncrief and Popovich described an innovative way of implanting a modified peritoneal catheter , by burying subcutaneously the proximal segment , after a classic laparotomy procedure . They thought that, covering the catheter during  the healing phase, would prevent the constitution of an intra-luminal bacterial biofilm, and, therefore, prevent secondary infectious complications, when performing dialysis. If it did not meet the infectious advantage , it appears that this technique of early implantation of the catheter , allows the onset of the treatment with a watertight and painless abdominal wall , with immediately using maximum volumes of dialysate .  We describe the technique as it was adapted to our center and practiced for more than  twenty years , reporting the results of a study in Chambery between 2006 and 2010 . Finally , we discuss the results published in the  literature .

We present the case of an 11-year-old girl with end-stage renal disease and a previously-inserted peritoneal dialysis catheter who underwent a bilateral transperitoneal laparoscopic nephrectomy for hypertension refractory to medical treatment. We employed a 4-port transperitoneal technique using the first detached kidney to occlude the ipsilateral abdominal wall access port during the contralateral nephrectomy to avoid gas/fluid leak and to facilitate location of the first kidney at the end of the surgery. The patient had no morbidity and was able to resume use of the peritoneal dialysis catheter 5 days after the surgery.
