BACKGROUND The mesothelium contributes significantly to the functional, structural and homeostatic properties of the peritoneum. Bioincompatible peritoneal dialysis solutions contribute to mesothelial cell loss during chronic peritoneal dialysis. Cell death has been implicated in mesothelial cell loss, but the molecular mechanisms have not been adequately characterized. We now report the modula...
The pharmacokinetics of metronidazole, its biologically active alcohol metabolite, and its inactive acid metabolite were studied in five noninfected patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and five patients undergoing hemodialysis. The latter were studied on off-dialysis days as a control group. Peritoneal dialysis caused insignificant changes in the apparent volume of dis...
Peritonitis is an inflammation of the peritoneum that occurs in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) treated by peritoneal dialysis. Fungal peritonitis is a dreaded complication of peritoneal dialysis. Curvularia lunata is known to cause extra renal disease like endocarditis, secondary allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and endophthalmitis. This case report presents a case of conti...
OBJECTIVE Patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis are frequently referred for radiologic evaluation of complications related to the dialysis. We studied the value of CT peritoneography in evaluating these complications. CT peritoneography is a technique in which CT scans are obtained after dialysis fluid containing iodinated contrast material is infused into the peritoneal cavity ...
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a well established method of depuration in uremic patients. Standard dialysis solutions currently in use are not biocompatible with the peritoneal membrane. Studying effects of dialysate on peritoneal membrane in humans is still a challenge. There is no consensus on the ideal experimental model so far. We, therefore, wanted to develop a new experimental non-uremic ra...
BACKGROUND Peritoneal dialysis is an important type of renal replacement therapy for uremic patients. In peritoneal dialysis, fluids fill in and flow out of the abdominal cavity three to five times per day. Usually, the fluid is packed in a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bag. Safety concerns have arisen over di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, which is essential in the formation of PVC materials. In 2011, t...
this descriptive and analytical study was conducted to evaluate quality quality of nursing care by nurses in hemodialysis patients and their knowledge of peritoneal dialysis in hospitals affiliated to tehran university of medical sciences. in this study , 40 nurses graduated with bachelor , master and associae degree were participated. data gathering was accomplished by questionnaire consists...
INTRODUCTION Renal replacement therapy is the treatment of end-stage chronic kidney disease and can be performed through dialysis catheters, arteriovenous fistulas/grafts, and peritoneal dialysis. Patients are usually immunocompromised and exposed to invasive procedures, leading to high rates of infection and increased mortality. OBJECTIVES To compare the prevalence of infection and related d...
BACKGROUND Peritonitis continues to be a major problem for peritoneal dialysis patients. The incidence of peritonitis has decreased in recent decades but uncommon organisms are inceasingly being reported. CASE REPORT We report an 83 year old man with history of diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, coronary artery disease and end stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis, who developed r...
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal dialysis is a maintenance therapy option for patients with end-stage renal disease. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis in Cuba was introduced in December 2007, and automated peritoneal dialysis one year later. This paper presents the outcomes attained with this blood purification technique, enabling an assessment to decide on scaling up its use in Cuba. OBJECTIV...
