Acute peritoneal dialysis in very low birth weight neonates using a vascular catheter

Abstract: We report on our experience with acute peritoneal dialysis (APD) in 16 very low birth weight neonates ranging from 24.6 to 30.2 weeks' gestation with a birth weight ranging from 630 g to 1,430 g using a 14-gauge Arrow vascular catheter for APD access. The underlying causes of acute renal failure were: sepsis (7), necrotizing enterocolitis (4), patent ductus arteriosus (3), hydrops fetalis (1), intracranial hemorrhage (3), pulmonary hemorrhage (2), pneumonia (1), and perinatal asphyxia (1). Among 12 patients, t… Show more

“…One possible explanation for these differences is the source of the data in these reports; i.e., the patients had different primary diseases and there were marked differences in the treatment conditions, including the kind of delivery dialysis system as well as the use or not of antibiotic prophylaxis [5][6][7][8][20][21][22].…”

“…90 If peritoneal dialysis is felt to be a short-term requirement, a temporary catheter can be placed. Several studies describe successful peritoneal dialysis by several different techniques in critically ill neonates as small as 830 g. [91][92][93][94][95] When PD is technically difficult because of abdominal wall defects, skin infections, communication to the pleural space, or high ultrafiltration needs, CRRT can be performed. CRRT is performed with a hemodialysis catheter placed in a central location and either regional or systemic anticoagulation.…”

“…Oyachi et al describe the use of a flexible Blake silicone drain in a term infant requiring PD (28). Yu et al detail the novel use of a vascular catheter placed in the upper right quadrant; however, high rates of catheter leak, poor drainage, and kinking were noted (29).…”

“…NICU is a tertiary unit with 40 beds, caring for neonates with both surgical and medical diseases. We usually perform PD if the patient has one of the following: physical evidence of total fluid overload and positive fluid balance, inadequate urine output (<1 mL/kg per hour) or anuria unresponsive to fluid challenge, intravenous furosemide for at least 4 h, acidbase or electrolyte disturbance unresponsive to medical treatment (pH < 7.10, serum K + > 8 mmol/L), progressive azotemia, hyperammonemia, and accumulation of neurotoxic metabolites (5,6).…”
