“…However, being younger in age, male, employed, of non-white ethnicity or on PD treatment for longer was found to have consistent associations with non-adherence in PD. Patients' self care ability and/or presence of a caregiver may moderate the effect of age [46], [60] as older patients assisted by a caregiver were found to be less likely to miss exchanges than an older patient who is conducting the exchanges him/herself [61].…”

BackgroundIt has been increasingly recognized that non-adherence is an important factor that determines the outcome of peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy. There is therefore a need to establish the levels of non-adherence to different aspects of the PD regimen (dialysis procedures, medications, and dietary/fluid restrictions).MethodsA systematic review of peer-reviewed literature was performed in PubMed, PsycINFO and CINAHL databases using PRISMA guidelines in May 2013. Publications on non-adherence in PD were selected by two reviewers independently according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Relevant data on patient characteristics, measures, rates and factors associated with non-adherence were extracted. The quality of studies was also evaluated independently by two reviewers according to a revised version of the Effective Public Health Practice Project assessment tool.ResultsThe search retrieved 204 studies, of which a total of 25 studies met inclusion criteria. Reported rates of non-adherence varied across studies: 2.6–53% for dialysis exchanges, 3.9–85% for medication, and 14.4–67% for diet/fluid restrictions. Methodological differences in measurement and definition of non-adherence underlie the observed variation. Factors associated with non-adherence that showed a degree of consistency were mostly socio-demographical, such as age, employment status, ethnicity, sex, and time period on PD treatment.ConclusionNon-adherence to different dimensions of the dialysis regimen appears to be prevalent in PD patients. There is a need for further, high-quality research to explore these factors in more detail, with the aim of informing intervention designs to facilitate adherence in this patient population.

“…Several studies investigated adherence among HD patients. There is extensive evidence showing that successful treatment of patients with ESRD is directly related to their adherence, including dietary and fluid restrictions and medication regimens (Baines & Jindal 2000, Shaw‐Stuart & Stuart 2000, Ricka et al. 2002, Lee & Molassiotis 2002, Sharp et al.…”

“…Furthermore, there is research evidence supporting the premise that self-care can be taught, learned, and supported and that dialysis nurses are viewed by nephrology patients as credible, knowledgeable providers of this teaching service. 19,[34][35][36] Hence, the time is right for nurses to exercise their nursing agency to influence patient outcomes related to successful adoption of patient self-cannulation and home dialysis treatment.…”
