Prevalence and Risk Factors of Technique Failure in Peritoneal Dialysis of Iranian Children and Adolescents
Background: Statistics have shown that the rate of technical failure in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is greater than hemodialysis. In this regard, the present study is aimed to determine the prevalence and risks factors of technique failure of PD in Iranian children using the country’s computerized PD data registry system. Materials and Methods: </st...
متن کاملHypoalbuminemia in peritoneal dialysis patients.
Clinicians caring for patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) have relied on a variety of laboratory measures to assess the health of patients and their response to treatment. Traditionally, serum albumin has been an indicator of nutrition status and has therefore been included in monthly blood testing in most centers. The development of hypoalbuminemia in dialysis patients has been associated wit...
متن کاملPseudo-hypoalbuminemia in peritoneal dialysis patients
Introduction: Oxidative stress in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients produces molecular modifications of serum albumin that disturb its biological functions and interfere with its detection by the commonly used bromocresol green (BCG) assay. This study aimed to evaluate the role of oxidized serum albumin (OSA) in hypoalbuminemic PD patients. Methods: Twenty four PD stable patients with serum alb...
متن کاملContinuous mortality risk among peritoneal dialysis patients.
C onventional hemodialysis (CHD) administered thrice weekly for 3to 4-hour sessions and peritoneal dialysis (PD) are the 2 most commonly delivered dialysis modalities. Patients treated with CHD are subject to short periods of rapid fluid and solute removal accompanied by brisk electrolyte shifts followed by long intervals when these substances reaccumulate. In contrast, PD uses the patient’s pe...
متن کاملContinuous flow peritoneal dialysis: first experience in children with acute renal failure.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Acute renal failure can be treated with different dialysis modalities, depending on patient characteristics and hospital resources. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) can be first choice in situations like hypotension, disturbed coagulation, or difficult venous access. The main disadvantage of PD is the relatively limited efficacy. The aim of this study was to investigate whethe...
