Background Maintaining peritoneal dialysis (PD) for a long time is problematic owing to a number of factors. This study aimed to clarify the characteristics and examine the clinical outcomes of patients who received PD as a long-term dialysis modality. Methods All end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who initiated PD at Yonsei University Health System between 1987 and 2000 were screened. Patients who maintained PD for over 15 years were classified as the long-term PD group and those who were treated with PD for less than 5 years were included in the short-term PD group. Demographic and biochemical data and clinical outcomes were compared between the groups. Independent factors associated with long-term PD maintenance were ascertained using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Among 1,116 study patients, 87 (7.8%) were included in the long-term group and 293 (26.3%) were included in the short-term group. In the long-term group, the mean patient age at PD initiation was 39.6 ± 11.5 years, 35 patients (40.2%) were male, and the mean PD duration was 205.3 ± 32.7 months. Patients were younger, body weight was lower, the proportion of patients with diabetes or cardiovascular diseases was lower, and the proportion of low to low-average transporters was higher in the long-term group than in the short-term group ( p < 0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that age, body mass index (BMI), serum creatinine, type of PD solution, and diabetes were significant independent factors associated with long-term PD maintenance. Conclusion Peritoneal dialysis can be considered as a long-term renal replacement therapy option, especially in non-diabetic, not overweight, and young ESRD patients.

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) interruption requiring hemodialysis (HD) is not uncommon and its frequently abrupt nature prevents timely creation of permanent HD access and avoidance of central venous catheters (CVC). We retrospectively studied a cohort of 24 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients (mean age 50.7 years, 83.3% African-Americans, 58.3% females, time on dialysis interquartile range [IQR] 0 - 65 days) who had simultaneous PD catheter insertion and backup arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2013. The primary outcome of interest was the percent of patients receiving HD through the backup AVF at the time of PD interruption. A median (IQR) for PD catheter use after its insertion was 10.5 (2 - 20) days. After the mean follow-up of 19.6 months, 12 patients remained on PD, 2 patients received a kidney transplant, and 1 patient died. The overall AVF patency was 66.7%. A total of 9 (37.5%) patients had PD interruption requiring permanent (8 patients) or temporary (1 patient) HD after the mean (standard deviation [SD]) follow-up of 12.3 (8.2) months. Arteriovenous fistula was used as the initial access in 4 patients, and in 3 patients the original AVF was used after additional surgical revision. Forty-four percent of patients with a backup AVF fistula avoided CVC at the time of PD interruption requiring HD. The simultaneous AVF creation at the time of PD catheter insertion reduced but did not fully eliminate CVC at the time of PD interruption. Larger studies are needed to evaluate the utility of a backup AVF in PD patients.

Background. End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) normally requires dialysis or transplantation for survival. Since ESRD patients are on long term dialysis, infections such as Hepatitis B (HBV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) are commonly reported.Methods. This was a retrospective study carried out at a government hospital during a 12-month period from January 2013 to December 2013. The data was collected using a predesigned pro forma to note the etiology, gender, age, and HBsAg and anti-HCV test result of each patient.Results. 444 children suffering from ESRD were included in our analysis. The mean age of sample was 12.7 ± 4.1 years. Sixty percent (n=262) of the children were boys. The most common etiology of ESRD was kidney stones (n=44, 29.3%). HBV was positive in 11 children (2.5%) while HCV was positive in 13 (2.9%).Conclusion. This study asserts the need for carrying out further work to confirm these findings and expand our recommendations. It is imperative to reliably determine the burden of HBV and HCV disease and to determine the aetiology of their spread especially in children with ESRD.

Aims: This study aimed to compare the short-term complications and long-term prognosis between urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD), and explore the safety and feasibility of PD in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with diabetes. Methods: This retrospective study enrolled ESRD patients with diabetes who required urgent-start dialysis at a single center from January 2011 to December 2014. Short-term (30-day) dialysis-related complications and patient survival trends were compared between patients receiving PD and HD. Results: Eighty patients were included in the study, including 50 (62.5%) who underwent PD. The incidence of dialysis-related complications and complications requiring reinsertion during the first 30 days was significantly lower in PD patients. Logistic regression identified urgent-start HD as an independent risk factor for dialysis-related complications compared with urgent-start PD. The patient survival rate was higher in the PD compared to that in the HD group. Conclusions: PD may be acceptable, safe, and feasible for urgent-start dialysis in ESRD patients with diabetes.

Background Clinical results of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are controversial. This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of LC patients undergoing PD. Methods Clinical records were retrospectively collected from a single center between January 2007 and December 2014. An analysis of PD patients with LC and without liver disease was performed using propensity score matching. We further restricted matching by age, gender, and the presence of diabetes mellitus. Two cohorts of 33 patients each were selected. Early technical complications were defined as the presence of catheter-related complications, including malposition, leakage, omental wrapping, obstruction, and requiring a transfer to hemodialysis (HD) within 6 months of initiating PD. Results Mean PD duration was lower in LC patients (57.2 ± 46.1 months) than in controls (85.8 ± 64.2 months). Blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and albumin levels were significantly lower in LC patients than in the control group. Cystatin C and cystatin C-based glomerular filtration rates were not significantly different in the LC group compared with those in the controls. We found that the risks for early technical complications, peritonitis, and long-term PD and patient survival were not higher in patients with LC than in those without LC. Ascites were easily controlled, and hepatic encephalopathy did not affect PD maintenance in LC patients. Conclusions The clinical outcomes, including technical complications, peritonitis, and patients’ survival, suggest that PD can be used as a renal replacement therapy in ESRD patients with LC.

A patient with end-stage renal disease on CAPD, and with massive iron overload is reported. This patient had evidence of myocardial and hepatic damage probably as a result of iron overload. Treatment with desferoxamine resulted in removal of iron in the peritoneal dialysate. On the basis of preliminary studies in this patient it would appear that removal of iron by peritoneal dialysis in conjunction with chelation therapy is safe and effective. This finding should have wide-ranging signficance for patients with ESRD.

ObjectivesLess than 10% of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients in Taiwan receive peritoneal dialysis (PD), which reveals the situation of underutilization of PD. We thus aimed to investigate factors associated with treatment with PD in ESRD patients in Taiwan.PatientsPatients that were 18 years of age or older and had been on dialysis for at least 3 months since 2001 were recruited and interviewed with a structured questionnaire.Results98 hemodialysis (HD) and 102 PD patients were recruited. In univariate analysis, age, sex, level of education, employment status, marital status, traffic time, family support, patient cognition, and receptivity were correlated with treatment with PD. Multivariate analysis showed that patients that were not married ( p = 0.006), that spent more time traveling to the dialysis clinic ( p = 0.006), that were not emergent at the start of dialysis ( p = 0.003), and that had better family support ( p = 0.045), a higher cognition of dialysis ( p = 0.034), and stronger receptivity to dialysis ( p < 0.001) were more likely to receive PD.ConclusionsWe recommend patients follow the standard process to obtain more exhaustive information, consultation, and early referral. In addition, we suggest healthcare providers remind patients to take into account such nonclinical factors as family support and patient receptivity when they choose their dialysis modality.

Abstract Background and Aims End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients frequently have the coronary artery disease. However, the short- and long-term outcome of ESRD patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is little known. The aim of this study was to clarify it. Method Using the database of the Osaka Acute Coronary Insufficiency Study (OACIS), 8702 consecutive AMI patients (male: 75.2%, mean age: 66.9±12.2yrs) from 2002 to 2013 were analyzed. We classified these patients into two groups, those with ESRD [ESRD group (n=271)] and without ESRD [No-ESRD group (n=8431)] and examined in-hospital or long-term all-cause mortality. ESRD was defined as eGFR&lt;15ml/min/1.73m2. Results ESRD group had higher frequency of diabetes (59.3% vs 37.8%, p&lt;0.01), hypertension (90.1% vs 63.3%, p&lt;0.01), Killip class≧2 (40.1% vs 21%, p&lt;0.01), multi-vessel disease (69.3% vs 50.8%, p&lt;0.01), and lower frequency of peak CK&gt;3000 (21.7% vs 32.4%, p&lt;0.01) than No-ESRD group. Mean follow-up period was 1041±721 days. In hospital mortality of ESRD group was 27% and No-ESRD group 7.2%. In patients who discharged alive (8027 patients), 1-year mortality of ESRD group was 12.2% and No-ESRD group 3.3%, 3-year mortality of ESRD group was 29.3% and No-ESRD group 8.7%. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the all-cause mortality (log-rank p&lt;0.01) was significantly higher in ESRD group than No-ESRD group. In ESRD patients who discharged alive (203patients), Cox univariate analysis after multiple imputation revealed that peak CK&gt;3000 was significantly associated with an increased risk of mortality (Hazard ratio 2.67, 95% confidence interval 1.18to 6.07, p=0.031). Conclusion In patients with AMI, ESRD was significantly associated with worse short- and long-term outcome, suggesting that careful treatment might be required in ESRD patients with AMI, especially had peak CK&gt;3000.

The countries of the Middle East have a cumulative population of 261.1 million and a mean gross national income per capita of US$9500. The total number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the Middle East is almost 100000, the mean prevalence being 430 per million population (pmp). The first implementation of intermittent peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the Middle East occurred in Turkey in 1968; continuous ambulatory PD started in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Kuwait in the 1980s; and automated PD, in Turkey in 1998. The total active PD patients in the region number approximately 8170. With 5750 patients, Turkey ranks first, followed by Iran and Saudi Arabia with 1150 and 771 patients respectively. Penetration of PD with respect to the ESRD population is 7.5%, and with respect to dialysis overall is 10.2%. The dialysis rate in the region, 312 pmp, is almost half the European number of 581 pmp, with a PD prevalence of 32 pmp (range: 0 – 81 pmp). The number of active PD patients has risen dramatically in the main countries since the end of the 1990s: Turkey, to 5750 from 1030; Saudi Arabia, to 771 from 132; and Iran to 1150 from 0.
