Factors Associated With Urgent-Start Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Complications in ESRD.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:Urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) in patients with newly diagnosed end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a well-tolerated alternative to hemodialysis (HD). The primary aim of this study was to identify the demographic and clinical characteristics of ESRD patients, as well as the presurgical, surgical, and postsurgical factors associated with urgent-start PD complications. Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional observational study was performed on 102 patients with ESRD who merited urgent-start PD from January 2015 to June 2019. The primary clinical outcome measures were catheter leakage, dysfunction, and peritonitis, whereas the secondary outcomes were catheter removal, repositioning, and death. Statistical inferences were made with the ?2 or Fisher's exact test and independent samples t tests. Results:One hundred two subjects (65 men, 63.7%) 56.2 ± 15.1 years old were included in this study; 64 of the subjects had diabetes and hypertension (62.7%). Catheter leakage occurred in 8 patients (7.8%), catheter dysfunction in 27 patients (26.5%), and peritonitis in 14 patients (13.7%); meanwhile, catheter removal occurred in 6 patients (5.9%), catheter repositioning in 21 patients (20.6%), and death in 3 patients (2.9%). Peritonitis was associated with younger age (i.e., 47.0 ± 16.8 vs. 57.6 ± 14.4 years; P = 0.014; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.2-19.1; odds ratio [OR] 0.96; P = 0.018; 95% CI: 0.92-099), higher creatinine levels upon admission (i.e., 20.2 ± 9.8 vs. 14.1 ± 8.3; P = 0.014; 95% CI: -10.9 to -1.2), and heart failure (OR 4.79; P = 0.043; 95% CI: 1.05-21.88). Patients with abdominal hernia were 7.5 times more likely to have their catheter leak (OR 7.5; P = 0.036; 95% CI: 1.14-49.54). Catheter removal was associated with obesity (i.e., body mass index [BMI] of 31.6 ± 4.1 vs. 25.9 ± 4.9; P = 0.007; 95% CI: -9.8 to -1.6; OR 1.26; P = 0.013; 95% CI: 1.05-1.51) and Modification of Diet in Renal Disease glomerular filtration rate (MDRD-GFR) (i.e., 2.5 ± 0.6 vs. 3.7 ± 2.3; P = 0.003; 95% CI: 0.5-1.9). Conclusion:Peritonitis was associated with younger age, higher creatinine levels upon admission, and heart failure; meanwhile, catheter removal was linked to obesity and lower glomerular filtration rate. Compared with previous reports, our study included patients in which PD was initiated shortly after catheter insertion, making the intervention a true urgent-start PD. This study contributes to the existing urgent-start PD literature by providing evidence that urgent-start PD with catheter opening within 72 hours has limited complications, making it a relatively safe option.

Project description:BackgroundSeveral studies have suggested that urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a feasible alternative to hemodialysis (HD) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), but the impact of the dialysis modality on outcome, especially on short-term complications, in urgent-start dialysis has not been directly evaluated. The aim of the current study was to compare the complications and outcomes of PD and HD in urgent-start dialysis ESRD patients.MethodsIn this retrospective study, ESRD patients who initiated dialysis urgently without a pre-established functional vascular access or PD catheter at a single center from January 2013 to December 2014 were included. Patients were grouped according to their dialysis modality (PD and HD). Each patient was followed for at least 30 days after catheter insertion (until January 2016). Dialysis-related complications and patient survival were compared between the two groups.ResultsOur study enrolled 178 patients (56.2% male), of whom 96 and 82 patients were in the PD and HD groups, respectively. Compared with HD patients, PD patients had more cardiovascular disease, less heart failure, higher levels of serum potassium, hemoglobin, serum albumin, serum pre-albumin, and lower levels of brain natriuretic peptide. There were no significant differences in gender, age, use of steroids, early referral to a nephrologist, prevalence of primary renal diseases, prevalence of co-morbidities, and other laboratory characteristics between the groups. The incidence of dialysis-related complications during the first 30 days was significantly higher in HD than PD patients. HD patients had a significantly higher probability of bacteremia compared to PD patients. HD was an independent predictor of short-term (30-day) dialysis-related complications. There was no significant difference between PD and HD patients with respect to patient survival rate.ConclusionIn an experienced center, PD is a safe and feasible dialysis alternative to HD for ESRD patients with an urgent need for dialysis.

Project description:Rationale & objectiveIt is a common practice to start patients in urgent need of dialysis on hemodialysis via a central venous catheter. Because central venous catheter use is associated with increased risk of infections, hospitalizations, and mortality, urgent start peritoneal dialysis (PD) increasingly represents a viable alternative. This study aimed to examine clinical outcomes, complications, mortality, and modality retention in patients who initiated urgent start PD.Study designRetrospective cohort study.Setting and participantsEighty-four adult members of a large integrated health care system who initiated urgent start PD between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2014.ExposureUrgent start PD.OutcomesRetention rates at 30, 90, and 365 days; time to the development of noninfectious and infectious complications, modality failure, and all-cause mortality.Analytical approachCumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Retention rates for PD were computed using binomial proportions.ResultsOccurrence of major complications was less than 5%. Catheter malfunction occurred in 6% of cases; of those, catheter patency could be established in 80%. Infectious complications occurred in 20% of patients who initiated PD and included peritonitis and exit site infections. At 365 days after initiation, the cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was 9.7% (95% CI, 4.7%-19.4%). PD retention rates were 98.8%, 91.3%, and 80.0% at 30 days, 90 days, and 1 year, respectively.LimitationsRetrospective cohort design, a well-matched comparable group of urgent start hemodialysis patients could not be identified, small number of patients in a single integrated health care system, uncertain or limited generalizability of findings to other health care systems.ConclusionsAt 1 year after initiation, patients who initiated urgent start PD had high survival and modality retention rates. In unplanned initiation of dialysis, urgent start PD is a viable and sustainable option and should be considered in selected patients to optimize care.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) can help patients with end-stage renal diseases (ESRD) that are referred late to dialysis. However, catheter patency and related complications of urgent-start PD have not been thoroughly clarified. We investigated the clinical outcomes of urgent-start PD in a Chinese cohort. METHODS:We enrolled ESRD patients who received urgent-start PD (starting PD within 14?days after catheter insertion) in our center from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2014, and followed them up for 10?years. The primary outcome was catheter failure. Secondary outcomes included short-term and long-term complications related to urgent-start PD. RESULTS:Totally 2059 patients (58.9% male, mean age 47.6?±?15.9?years) were enrolled. Few perioperative complications were observed, including significant hemorrhage (n?=?3, 0.1%) and bowel perforation (n?=?0). Early peritonitis occurred in 24 (1.2%) patients (0.28 episodes per patient-year). Within the first month after catheter insertion, functional catheter malfunction occurred in 85 (4.1%) patients, and abdominal wall complications (including hernia, hydrothorax, hydrocele, and leakage) in 36 (1.7%) patients. During a median 36.5 (17.7-61.4) months of follow-up, 75 (3.6%) patients experienced catheter failure, and 291 (14.1%) had death-censoring technique failure. At the end of 1-month, 1 -year, 3-year, and 5-year, catheter patency rate was 97.6, 96.4, 96.2, 96.2%; and technique survival rate was 99.5, 97.0, 90.3, 82.7%, respectively. After adjusting for confounders, every 5-year increase in age was associated with 19% decrease of risk for catheter failure (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.81, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.73-0.89). Male sex (HR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.00-2.04), diabetic nephropathy (HR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.08-2.25) and low hemoglobin levels (HR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81-0.98) were independent risk factors for abdominal wall complications. CONCLUSIONS:Urgent-start PD is a safe and efficacious option for unplanned ESRD patients. A well-trained PD team, a standardized catheter insertion procedure by experienced nephrologists, and a carefully designed initial PD prescription as well as comprehensive follow-up care, might be essential for the successful urgent-start PD program.
