Why the study?

Does peritoneal membrane transport status impact technique failure and patient survival in patients on automated peritoneal dialysis?

Population

50 patients (20 men, 30 women) receiving automated peritoneal dialysis (APD)

Comparison

Classification by peritoneal equilibration test… vs Comparison among the four PET subgroups

Design

Cohort

Follow-up

mean 25.2 +/- 9.2 months

Implication

High transport status was associated with lower APD survival; leaves open whether membrane transport affects technique failure or warrants intervention.

Structured PICO

Does peritoneal membrane transport status impact technique failure and patient survival in patients on automated peritoneal dialysis?

P
Population
50 patients (20 men, 30 women) receiving automated peritoneal dialysis (APD)
I
Intervention
Classification by peritoneal equilibration test (PET) into low (L), low average (LA), high average (HA), or high (H) peritoneal transporters
C
Comparator
Comparison among the four PET subgroups (L, LA, HA, H)
O
Outcome
Technique survival and patient survivalhard clinical

In patients on automated peritoneal dialysis, high peritoneal transport status and lower serum albumin are associated with lower patient survival, though technique survival is unaffected.
