Incremental start to PD as experienced in Italy: results of censuses carried out from 2005 to 2014

Abstract: Incr-PD is used in Italy in a large number of incident PD patients. The reasons for this increase need to be clarified, as current adequacy targets are based on full-dose studies with a very low glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

“…These patients had greater residual renal function and urinary sodium losses, thus over-all losses were similar between modalities, supporting the results of smaller studies [10, 24]. As with many centres we practice incremental dialysis, with peritoneal dialysis prescriptions taking into account residual renal function [25], and as such patients with greater residual renal function and urinary sodium losses had correspondingly lower peritoneal sodium losses.…”

“…It must be emphasized that IPD is not early dialysis and requires monthly monitoring of RRF to promptly adjust dialytic dosage. Despite little evidence in publications, IPD is widely used, mostly in Italy [ 112 ]. IPD has resulted safe for patients and has shown advantages in terms of lower hospitalization, incidence of peritonitis and rate of decrease in RRF [ 113 ], as well as a lower impact on patient quality of life.…”

“…In realtà, nella pratica quotidiana, è frequente in dialisi peritoneale la prescrizione di una dose dialitica incrementale, vale a dire l’inizio con una dose dialitica ridotta e il successivo aumento della dose in conseguenza al deterioramento della funzione renale residua 1 . Un approccio analogo è stato proposto anche per i pazienti incidenti in trattamento emodialitico cronico utilizzando un ritmo dialitico bisettimanale, quando è presente una sufficiente funzione renale residua.…”

“…Nella pratica clinica di molti centri per la dialisi peritoneale viene utilizzata una strategia di dose incrementale 1 . Ciò significa che la dialisi viene iniziata con un numero ridotto di scambi giornalieri, che successivamente viene incrementato al ridursi della funzione renale residua (residual renal function, RRF).…”
