Most patients receiving renal replacement therapy have cardiovascular disease. The most frequent conditions are left ventricular hypertrophy and coronary artery disease. Hemodialysis is associated with a characteristic spectrum of acute complications (such as hypotension, sudden death) that can be explained by typical dialysis -induced effects on the heart. With continuous peritoneal dialysis (CAPO) some of the cardiovascular complications are ameliorated owing to slow ultrafiltration and absence of an arteriovenous fistula. CAPO might be concluded to be the preferable option in patients with cardiovascular disease, but a few disadvantages, such as hyperlipidemia and hyperinsulinemia, also exist. Nurses also play an important role in the therapeutic success and outcomes of these patients.

Objective To evaluate the adequacy of dialysis in patients on nighttime intermittent peritoneal dialysis (NIPD). Design Retrospective review of prospectively collected data. Patients Seven patients on NIPD. Measurements The fast peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was used to determine peritoneal membrane permeability for small solutes. Adequacy of dialysis measured by 24hour collections of dialysate and urine for weekly KT/V and creatinine clearance in liters/week/1.73 m2 was assessed in patients with (n=3) and without (n=4) residual renal function and evaluated in concert with the patient's clinical status. Outcome for each patient was also noted. Results Five of the patients had a high-average dialysate/serum creatinine by PET (>0.66). Despite a weekly KT/V of 1.7 or more, four of the seven patients on NIPD were uremic and either transferred to hemodialysis or continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD). A fifth patient had a KT/V of 1.4 and was also uremic on NIPD. The patient who was clinically well and continued on NIPD had significant residual renal function. Conclusions NIPD should be restricted to patients with high-average dialysate/serum creatinine as determined by PET and residual renal function or those with high dialysate/serum creatinine. Extended dialysis time and large volumes of dialysate are required for successful NIPD in patients without residual renal function. Accepted parameters of dialysis adequacy used for patients on continuous peritoneal dialysis are not appropriate for intermittent forms of peritoneal dialysis.

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a serious complication of long-term continuous peritoneal dialysis therapy. The progression of EPS has been classified into four stages by Kawanishi and colleagues: pre-EPS, and the inflammatory, encapsulating, and ileus stages. The key issue is how to diagnose EPS early enough to allow for curative treatment. In this article, we review the mechanisms of peritoneal fibrosis, especially from the perspective of collagen synthesis, and the potential role of that fibrosis in the pathogenesis of EPS.
