Patients initiating peritoneal dialysis started on two icodextrin exchanges daily.
Patients with end-stage renal disease treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are often put on standard one size fits all" regimens, despite having varying degrees of residual renal function (RRF). The present study reports our experience with initiation of PD using 2 icodextrin exchanges daily in patients with RRF corresponding to a weekly Kt/Vurea of at least 1.0. Peritoneal and RRF Kt/Vurea we...
متن کاملCost savings from peritoneal dialysis therapy time extension using icodextrin.
Previous retrospective studies have reported that icodextrin may prolong peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment time in patients with refractory fluid overload (RFO). Because the annual cost of PD therapy is lower than that of hemodialysis (HD) therapy in Australia, we prospectively investigated the ability of icodextrin to prolong PD technique survival in patients with RFO. We used a computer mode...
متن کاملWhen should icodextrin be started to improve atherosclerosis in peritoneal dialysis patients?
Icodextrin-based peritoneal dialysis (PD) has many advantages over glucose-based PD. The present study aimed to investigate when icodextrin should be started for better management of cardiovascular status (as defined by echocardiography findings) and residual renal function (RRF). We retrospectively analyzed 40 patients treated with continuous ambulatory PD or automated PD. The patients were di...
متن کاملRandomized controlled study of icodextrin on the treatment of peritoneal dialysis patients during acute peritonitis.
BACKGROUND The clinical benefits of using icodextrin during acute peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis are uncertain. On the premise that high glucose concentration might jeopardize the peritoneal defense during peritonitis, icodextrin administration during acute peritonitis could have the potential to improve the peritonitis outcome whilst improving ultrafiltration. METHODS We conducted a sing...
متن کاملIcodextrin reduces mortality and the drop-out rate in Japanese peritoneal dialysis patients.
Although numerous reports have shown that the use of icodextrin solution, as compared with conventional dextrose solutions, provides various clinical benefits, data on the impact of icodextrin solution on mortality and drop-out are sparse. In the present retrospective study, we compared clinical outcomes in a large cohort of patients prescribed either icodextrin or dextrose solution for the lon...
