“…In the study, parents consistently reported having a child with CKD as "a pervasive and profoundly negative experience." (22) Other studies have noted pediatric dialysis disrupts family life (23,24), affects parental marriages (23,25,26), parental healthrelated quality of life (HRQOL) (24), parental stress (26)(27)(28)(29), and results in less parental time spent with healthy siblings (30) and more schooling problems in siblings (23). While all of these studies are limited by small sample sizes, future research may provide better guidance.…”

“…Prior research has demonstrated that having a child on pediatric dialysis negatively affects family's finances, a burden that will be experienced by the family as a whole (29,30,33). These expenses reinforce the importance of continued advocacy by the nephrology community for the provision of resources to our patients and their families, but also raise questions over how much expense is reasonable for a family to take on.…”

Improvements in pediatric dialysis over the past 50 years have made the decision to proceed with dialysis straightforward for the majority of pediatric patients. For certain groups, however, such as children with multiple comorbid conditions, children and families with few social and economic resources, and neonates and infants, the decision of whether to proceed with dialysis remains much more controversial. In this review, we will examine the best available data regarding the outcomes of dialysis in these populations and analyze the important ethical considerations that should guide decisions regarding dialysis for these patients. We conclude that providers must continue to follow a nuanced and individualized approach in decision making for each child and to recognize that, regardless of the decision reached about dialysis, there is a continued duty to care for patients and families to maximize the remaining quality of their lives.
