Fibrin Glue is Useful in Preventing Early Dialysate Leakage in Children on Chronic Peritoneal Dialysis

Abstract: Objective To assess if application of fibrin glue sealant to the peritoneal cuff suture is useful in the prevention of early dialysate leakage in children with end-stage renal disease on chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD). Design Single-center, open-label, prospective randomized study. Setting University Pediatric Hospital. Methods 52 catheters were implanted in 45 children (mean age 6.2 ± 4.5 years). Catheters were randomly assigned to either the control group or the sealant group. In the latter group, 1 mL of… Show more

“…Additional measures include a 3 purse‐string approach reported in human medicine where a purse‐string suture is placed in each of the following layers: parietal membrane, inner, and outer sheet of the rectus fascia . Alternatively, reports in human pediatric medicine document the application of fibrin glue (1 mL), at the peritoneal Dacron cuff, if present, to prevent dialysate leak and offer early catheter use; no secondary adverse effects were noted . Subsequently, the distal tip of the PD catheter is tunneled through the subcutaneous tissues to exit the skin approximately 5 cm from the abdominal incision.…”
