Abstract:

Individuals with end-stage kidney disease have the treatment options of receiving conservative care, dialysis or a kidney transplant. There are two main types of dialysis – haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. For a peritoneal dialysis (PD) program to be successful, close attention must be paid to preventing PD-related infections. A common and serious complication of PD is peritonitis. Peritonitis is a contributing cause of death in about 16% of PD patients and is a major cause of PD technique failure, which results in patients having to switch to long-term haemodialysis. The peritonitis rat

Abstract:

Worldwide, approximately 11% of patients on dialysis receive peritoneal dialysis (PD). Whilst PD may offer more autonomy to patients compared with hemodialysis, patient and caregiver burnout, technique failure, and peritonitis remain major challenges to the success of PD. Improvements in care and outcomes are likely to be mediated by randomised trials of innovative therapies, but will be limited if the outcomes measured and reported are not important for patients and clinicians. The aim of the Standardised Outcomes in Nephrology-Peritoneal Dialysis (SONG-PD) study is to establish a set of core

Abstract:

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a life-saving form of renal replacement therapy for those with End Stage Kidney Disease. Peritoneal fibrosis is a considerable problem for PD patients, and mesothelial cells, which line the peritoneal cavity, play a central role in response to injury and fibrogenesis within the peritoneum. Mesothelial cells may undergo mesothelial to mesenchymal transition (MMT) contributing to peritoneal fibrosis and treatment failure. miRNAs are important regulators of fibrosis but their roles in peritoneal fibrosis are largely unknown.

Background: Peritoneal dialysis is a daily, life-saving treatment for end-stage renal disease, performed at home by patients and their relatives. Increasing numbers of patients are requiring treatment for this disease and therefore clinicians are calling for more patients to use peritoneal dialysis. However, the literature revealed only a small number of qualitative studies that considered patients’ experiences of their treatment, while a dearth of studies that explored relatives’ perspectives was noted.

Abstract:

Despite advances in treatment, peritoneal infection remains one of the main causes of technique failure in Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) patients. Understanding the nature of the peritoneum's response to inflammation is vital if we wish to reduce the negative impact of inflammation and infection on the peritoneal membrane. Given that aberrant leukocyte recruitment and activation appears to be a feature of these responses it is particularly important that we understand the contributions made by both resident and recruited peritoneal leukocytes in controlling this process as well as their direct cont
