Factors influencing peritoneal catheter survival in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
The success of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is to a great extent determined by the survival of the peritoneal catheter. The aim of this study was to identify technical factors which influence CAPD catheter survival. A total of 453 CAPD catheters inserted into 310 patients over an 8-year period were analysed. Access to the peritoneum was gained either by an open surgical tech...

متن کاملThe peritoneal immune system and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has been an established treatment for end-stage renal disease for about 20 years. A major problem of CAPD is the relatively high incidence of peritonitis, and this fact has served as a stimulus to nephrologists to study the immune mechanisms of the peritoneum. It is by now well established that all three main cell systems present in the peritonea...
متن کاملCurrent problems in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis
In spite of multiple problems, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is now an acceptable alternative treatment for end-stage renal failure. With proper care and attention to detail, many of its problems can be reduced or eliminated. It is particularly suitable for the very old, the very young and the patient living a long distance from the centre, and it is the treatment of choice for diab...
