Project description:PurposeRemote patient monitoring (RPM) has contributed to improved patient-centered outcomes and prognosis in patients with end-stage renal disease on automated peritoneal dialysis (APD). However, evidence from prospective trials is lacking.MethodsThe participants (n = 15; median age: 65 years; males: 10; peritoneal dialysis vintage: 6.4 ± 3.5 years) randomly received APD therapy using the Kaguya® APD system either with or without the connective use of the cloud-based RPM software Sharesource® for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was patient satisfaction assessed using a modified nine-item Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) questionnaire. The secondary outcomes were healthcare resource consumption, the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) subscales assessed with the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form questionnaire, and clinical laboratory parameters.ResultsSignificant improvements were observed in the TSQM-9 subscales of Effectiveness (64.4 ± 18.8 vs. 57.8 ± 18.8; P = 0.006) and Convenience (76.3 ± 15.4 vs. 63.3 ± 17.3; P < 0.001) in patients on Sharesource®. Moreover, Sharesource® reduced the total amount of healthcare resource consumption (0.80 ± 1.32 vs. 1.87 ± 2.39 times/12 weeks; P = 0.02) and consultation time during regular monthly visits (813 ± 269 vs. 1024 ± 292 s; P < 0.001). A significant increase in ultrafiltration volume was found associated with more frequent modification of APD prescription in patients with Sharesource®. Sharesource® also improved the HRQOL subscale of General Health and Vitality.ConclusionSharesource® can improve patient-centered outcomes in patients on APD while reducing the treatment burden for both patients and medical staff.Trial registrationThe study was registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT Number: jRCTs032190005).

Project description:AIMS:Remote monitoring (RM) can improve management of chronic diseases. We evaluated the impact of RM in automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) in a simulation study. MATERIALS AND METHODS:We simulated 12 patient scenarios with common clinical problems and estimated the likely healthcare resource consumption with and without the availability of RM (RM+ and RM- groups, respectively). Scenarios were evaluated 4 times by randomly allocated nephrologist-nurse teams or nephrologist-alone assessors. RESULTS:The RM+ group was assessed as having significantly lower total healthcare resource consumption compared with the RM- group (36.8 vs. 107.5 total episodes of resource consumption, p = 0.002). The RM+ group showed significantly lower "unplanned hospital visits" (2.3 vs. 11.3, p = 0.005), "emergency room visits" (0.5 vs. 5.3, p = 0.003), "home visits" (0.5 vs. 5.8, p = 0.016), "exchanges over the telephone" (18.5 vs. 57.8, p = 0.002), and "change to hemodialysis" (0.5 vs. 2.5, p = 0.003). Evaluations did not differ between nephrologist-nurse teams vs. nephrologist-alone assessors. CONCLUSION:RM can be expected to reduce healthcare resource consumption in APD patients.?.

Project description:IntroductionIt is still controversial whether automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) or hemodialysis (HD) is a more favorable choice for the rapid initiation of peritoneal dialysis (PD).MethodsA pilot randomized prospective controlled trial was carried out in Shanghai Ruijin Hospital. Sixty-seven patients who chose long-term PD treatment and needed unplanned dialysis were enrolled and randomized into HD-CAPD group (33 cases) or APD-CAPD group (34 cases) based on the dialysis modality during the transition period (within 14 days from the day PD catheter was implanted). Continuous ambulatory PD started after the transition period. The primary outcome was the decline rates of residual glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Secondary outcomes included the rates of mechanical complications, the rates of infectious complications, and complications of end-stage renal disease.ResultsWe found residual GFR decline was faster in HD-CAPD group than in APD-CAPD group (0.06 mL/min/w vs. 0.03 mL/min/w, p < 0.01). The incidences of mechanical complications were similar in APD-CAPD group comparing with HD-CAPD group, including hernia (2.9% vs. 3.0%, p = 1.00), catheter malposition (0.02 episodes/patient-months vs. 0.02 episodes/patient-months, p = 0.70), leakage (5.9% vs. 6.1%, p = 1.00), and omental wrap (0 episode vs. 3 episodes, p = 0.368). Though the 1-year overall infection rates were similar (0.03 episodes/patient-months vs. 0.05 episodes/patient-months, p = 0.10), APD-CAPD group had lower rate of bacteremia compared to HD-CAPD group (0 episodes/patient-months vs. 0.02 episodes/patient-months, p < 0.01).ConclusionsBoth APD and HD could be used for patients who need to start dialysis in an unplanned manner. APD may have the advantage in protecting residual renal functions among these patients.

Project description:Remote patient management (RPM) programs are one of the most crucial innovations in the peritoneal dialysis (PD) field that have been developed in the last decade. RPM programs are associated with favourable clinical outcomes by increasing the adherence of the patients to PD prescription. The literature supports that RPM is associated with increased blood pressure control and technique survival, and decreased hospitalization rate, length of hospital stay and health costs. RPM programs also facilitate patient follow-up during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, increase treatment adherence and lead to better clinical outcomes. However, published data remain scarce and mainly consist of observational or retrospective studies with relatively low numbers of patients. Therefore, randomized controlled trial results will be more informative to demonstrate the effect of RPM programs on clinical outcomes.

Project description:Longitudinal surveillance of peritoneal membrane function is crucial in defining patients with a risk of ultrafiltration failure. Long PD is associated with increased low molecular weight solute transport and decreased ultrafiltration and free water transport. Classic PET test only provides information about low molecular solute transport, and the vast majority of longitudinal studies are based on this test and include patients using conventional dialysates. Our aim was to prospectively analyze longitudinal data on peritoneal function in patients on biocompatible solutions using a novel test. Membrane function data were collected based on uni-PET (a combination of modified and mini PET). A total of 85 patients (age 61.1 ± 15.1 years) with at least one test/year were included. The median follow up was 36 months (21.3, 67.2). A total of 219 PETs were performed. One-way repeated measures ANOVA showed that there were no statistically significant differences over time in ultrafiltration, free water transport, ultrafiltration through small pores, sodium removal, D/D0 and D/PCre in repeated PET-tests. Twenty-three tests revealed ultrafiltration failure in 16 (18.8%) patients. Those patients were longer on PD, had higher D/P creatinine ratios, lower ultrafiltration at one hour with lower free water transport and higher urine volume at baseline. Multivariate analysis revealed that the variation of ultrafiltration over repeated PET-tests independently correlated only with D/Pcreatinine, free water transport and ultrafiltration through small pores. Uni-PET is a combination of two tests that provides more information on the function of the membrane compared with PET. Our study on a PD cohort using only biocompatible solutions revealed that function membrane parameters remained stable over a long time. Ultrafiltration failure was correlated with increased D/P creatinine and decreased free water transport and ultrafiltration through small pores.

Project description:Introduction:In the current study, an extended 3-pore model (TPM) is presented and applied to the problem of optimizing automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) with regard to osmotic water transport (UF), small/middle-molecule clearance, and glucose absorption. Methods:Simulations were performed for either intermittent APD (IPD) or tidal APD (TPD). IPD was simulated for fill and drain volumes of 2 L, whereas TPD was simulated using a tidal volume of 0.5 L, 1 L, or 1.5 L with full drains and subsequent fills (2 L) occurring after every fifth dwell. A total of 25 cycles for a large number of different dialysate flow rates (DFR) were simulated using 3 different glucose concentrations (1.36%, 2.27%, and 3.86%) and 3 different peritoneal transport types: slow (peritoneal equilibrium test D/Pcrea < 0.6), fast (peritoneal equilibrium test D/Pcrea > 0.8), and average. Solute clearance and UF were simulated to occur during the entire dwell, including both fill and drain periods. Results:It is demonstrated that DFRs exceeding ? 3 L/h are of little benefit both for UF and small-solute transport, whereas middle-molecule clearance is enhanced at higher DFRs. The simulations predict that large reductions (> 20%) in glucose absorption are possible by using moderately higher DFRs than a standard 6 × 2 L prescription and by using shorter optimized "bi-modal" APD regimens that alternate between a glucose-free solution and a glucose-containing solution. Discussion:Reductions in glucose absorption appear to be significant with the proposed regimens for APD; however, further research is needed to assess the feasibility and safety of these regimens.

Project description:It is unclear if the pharmacokinetics of vancomycin are the same during automated peritoneal dialysis (APD), where cycler exchanges may affect the systemic, peritoneal, and urinary disposition of drug. We conducted a prospective pharmacokinetic study evaluating the pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in plasma, dialysis fluid, and urine in peritonitis-negative patients on APD. Patients underwent four drug-free exchanges with 1.5% or 2.5% dextrose following the initial dwell period. Plasma, dialysis fluid, and urine was collected over the course of 7 days for pharmacokinetic analysis. Four patients completed the study with no adverse events. Following a median (range) dwell of 14.6 (14.2-17.6 h), the mean (±SD) observed maximum plasma concentration was 28.7 ± 4.9 mg/L with a mean bioavailability of 98.5 ± 1.4% prior to starting the cycler. The overall mean total plasma clearance estimated from study start to completion was 7.6 ± 1.2 ml/min. Mean total clearance during the dialytic exchange was 13.6 ± 4.9 ml/min. In patients with residual renal function, the mean vancomycin renal clearance was 3.1 ± 1.5 ml/min, representing 21.4%-58.9% of the overall total plasma clearance during the study period. Despite the small sample size, this pilot study suggests that the dwell time has important implications for systemic vancomycin exposure, time to therapeutic plasma concentration, and dosing. Dose is driven by dwell time, whereas the cycler determines the dosing interval. Rapid exchanges from APD will determine the frequency of dosing rather than the adequacy of absorption when vancomycin is given in the peritoneum.

Project description:BackgroundNon-euvolaemia in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is associated with elevated mortality risk. There is an urgent need to collect data to help us understand the association between clinical practices and hydration and nutritional status, and their effects on patient outcome.MethodsThe aim of this prospective international, longitudinal observational cohort study is to follow up the hydration and nutritional status, as measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy using the body composition monitor (BCM) of incident PD patients for up to 5 years. Measures of hydration and nutritional status and of clinical, biochemical and therapy-related data are collected directly before start of PD treatment, at 1 and 3 months, and then every 3 months. This paper presents the protocol and a pre-specified analysis of baseline data of the cohort.ResultsA total of 1092 patients (58.1% male, 58.0 ± 15.3 years) from 135 centres in 32 countries were included. Median fluid overload (FO) was 2.0 L (males) and 0.9 L (females). Less than half of the patients were normohydrated (38.7%), whereas FO > 1.1 L was seen in 56.5%. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were 139.5 ± 21.8 and 80.0 ± 12.8 mmHg, respectively, and 25.1% of patients had congestive heart failure [New York Heart Association (NYHA) 1 or higher]. A substantial number of patients judged to be not overhydrated on clinical judgement appeared to be overhydrated by BCM measurement. Overhydration at baseline was independently associated with male gender and diabetic status.ConclusionsThe majority of patients starting on PD are overhydrated already at start of PD. This may have important consequences on clinical outcomes and preservation of residual renal function. Substantial reclassification of hydration status by BCM versus on a clinical basis was necessary, especially in patients who were not overtly overhydrated. Both clinical appreciation and bioimpedance should be combined in clinical decision-making on hydration status.

Project description:IntroductionThe impact of peritoneal dialysis modality on patient survival and peritonitis rates is not fully understood, and no large-scale randomized clinical trial (RCT) is available. In the absence of a RCT, the use of an advanced matching procedure to reduce selection bias in large cohort studies may be the best approach. The aim of this study is to compare automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) according to peritonitis risk, technique failure and patient survival in a large nation-wide PD cohort.MethodsThis is a prospective cohort study that included all incident PD patients with at least 90 days of PD recruited in the BRAZPD study. All patients who were treated exclusively with either APD or CAPD were matched for 15 different covariates using a propensity score calculated with the nearest neighbor method. Clinical outcomes analyzed were overall mortality, technique failure and time to first peritonitis. For all analysis we also adjusted the curves for the presence of competing risks with the Fine and Gray analysis.ResultsAfter the matching procedure, 2,890 patients were included in the analysis (1,445 in each group). Baseline characteristics were similar for all covariates including: age, diabetes, BMI, Center-experience, coronary artery disease, cancer, literacy, hypertension, race, previous HD, gender, pre-dialysis care, family income, peripheral artery disease and year of starting PD. Mortality rate was higher in CAPD patients (SHR1.44 CI95%1.21-1.71) compared to APD, but no difference was observed for technique failure (SHR0.83 CI95%0.69-1.02) nor for time till the first peritonitis episode (SHR0.96 CI95%0.93-1.11).ConclusionIn the first large PD cohort study with groups balanced for several covariates using propensity score matching, PD modality was not associated with differences in neither time to first peritonitis nor in technique failure. Nevertheless, patient survival was significantly better in APD patients.

Project description:IntroductionSpot urinary sodium emerged as a useful parameter for assessing decongestion in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Growing evidence endorses the therapeutic role of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in patients with refractory CHF and kidney disease. We aimed to examine the long-term trajectory of urinary, peritoneal, and total (urinary plus peritoneal) sodium removal in a cohort of patients with refractory CHF enrolled in a CAPD program. Additionally, we explored whether sodium removal was associated with the risk of long-term mortality and episodes of worsening heart failure (WHF).MethodsWe included 66 ambulatory patients with refractory CHF enrolled in a CAPD program in a single teaching center. 24-h peritoneal, urinary, and total sodium elimination were analyzed at baseline and after CAPD initiation. Its trajectories over time were calculated using joint modeling of longitudinal and survival data. Within the framework of joint frailty models for recurrent and terminal events, we estimated its prognostic effect on recurrent episodes of WHF.ResultsAt the time of enrollment, the mean age and estimated glomerular filtration rate were 72.8 ± 8.4 years and 28.5 ± 14.3 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. The median urinary sodium at baseline was 2.34 g/day (1.40-3.55). At a median (p25%-p75%) follow-up of 2.93 (1.93-3.72) years, we registered 0.28 deaths and 0.24 episodes of WHF per 1 person-year. Compared to baseline (urinary), CAPD led to increased sodium excretion (urinary plus dialyzed) since the first follow-up visit (p < 0.001). Over the follow-up, repeated measurements of total sodium removal were associated with a lower risk of death and episodes of WHF.ConclusionsCAPD increased sodium removal in patients with refractory CHF. Elevated sodium removal identified those patients with a lower risk of death and episodes of WHF.
