A prime determinant in selecting dialysis modality: peritoneal dialysis patient survival

Abstract: The number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) has rapidly increased, as has the cost of dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established treatment for ESRD patients worldwide; it has a variety of advantages, including autonomy and flexibility, as well as economic benefits in many countries compared to hemodialysis (HD). However, the long-term survival rate of PD remains poor. Although direct comparison of survival rate between the dialysis modalities by randomized controlled trials is difficul… Show more

“…Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is possible through unidirectional transport from the vascular space to the peritoneal fluid via the peritoneal membrane, which consists of the capillary wall, interstitium, and mesothelium [1]. However, molecular mechanisms of peritoneal transport remain elusive, although aquaporin-1 at the endothelium of the capillary wall is known to play a role in regulating water permeability of the peritoneal membrane [2].…”

“…19 Selection bias was one explanation, indicating that PD was chosen for more patients with congestive heart failure. 32 Recent publication showed that the improved patient survival of PD accompanied less cardiovascular comorbidity burden, albeit the total number of PD is decreased in later period. 33 In the present study, we focused on the changing pattern of mortality hazard and HR even in the previously noted worse prognosis populations.…”

“…However, PD is more economical than HD because it is not only cheaper 6 , but also more likely to be employed than HD 7 . PD has a beneficial effect in maintaining residual renal function 17 , which may more positively impact the survival rates of PD during the early dialysis period 18 and after kidney transplantation 9 . According to recent registry data in Korea, the mortality of PD over HD seemed to be improved 16 , as has also been seen in other countries 11–14 .…”
