Pyogenic liver abscesses in peritoneal dialysis patients: A single-centre retrospective case series
This study aims to describe the characteristics, management and outcomes of liver abscesses in PD patients from a retrospective review of prevalent PD patients on follow-up at Tan Tock Seng Hospital between 1st January 2016 and 30th June 2021. A total of 11/383 PD patients (2.9%) were treated for liver abscesses. Most were diabetic (n =10, 90.9%), with a median PD vintage of 541 days (interquartile range: 310-931 days). Fever (n = 7, 63.6%), bacteraemia (n = 7, 63.6%) and concomitant PD peritonitis (n = 7, 63.6%) were the most common presenting symptoms. Majority of patients underwent radiological aspiration of abscess in ...

Health-related quality of life in paediatric patients on peritoneal dialysis: Data from a tertiary centre
Perit Dial Int. 2024 Apr 17:8968608241241177. doi: 10.1177/08968608241241177. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTKidney failure has a negative impact on both children and families' quality of life (QOL). We evaluated the burden of home peritoneal dialysis (PD) using two local questionnaires and the French version of PedsQL3.0 end-stage kidney disease module and family impact module. Data are expressed as median (min-max). We reviewed the charts of 12 patients, at a median age of 8.8 (1.2-16.7) years, undergoing maintenance PD for 8 (1-42) months. Parathyroid hormone and haemoglobin levels were 215 (17-606) ng/L and 117 (104-141...

Is social deprivation associated with the peritoneal dialysis outcomes? A cohort study with REIN registry data
CONCLUSION: In PD patients, social deprivation was not associated with death or the composite event of death or transfer to HD. Socially deprived individuals had a greater risk of transfer to HD and lower access to kidney transplantation in the competing risk analysis.PMID:38632672 | DOI:10.1177/08968608241237685 (Source: Peritoneal Dialysis International)

Transition between peritoneal dialysis modalities: Impact on blood pressure levels and drug prescription in a national multicentric cohort
CONCLUSIONS: Transition between PD modalities seems to directly impact on BP levels. Further studies are needed to confirm if switching to APD could be an effective treatment for uncontrolled hypertension among CAPD patients.PMID:38596899 | DOI:10.1177/08968608241240566 (Source: Peritoneal Dialysis International)

Exercise perceptions and practices of people receiving peritoneal dialysis: An international cross-sectional survey
CONCLUSIONS: Knowledge gaps suggest that education for both healthcare providers and patients is needed regarding the practice of exercise for people living with PD. Common areas of confusion include the maximum weight a person should lift, whether exercise was safe with or without intrabdominal PD fluid in situ and whether swimming is allowed. Further research is needed to provide patients with evidence-based recommendations rather than defaulting to restricting activity.PMID:38562120 | DOI:10.1177/08968608241237686 (Source: Peritoneal Dialysis International)
