Chronic peritoneal dialysis use is rising, with few contraindications. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is the main method, and complications like peritonitis are treatable with antibiotics.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Chronic peritoneal dialysis has seen significant recent growth.
  • The procedure is well-tolerated with minimal contraindications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current status and predominant methods of chronic peritoneal dialysis.
  • To highlight the manageability of common complications.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current practices in chronic peritoneal dialysis.
  • Analysis of complication management strategies.

Main Results:

  • Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is the leading regimen.
  • Mild peritonitis shows rapid response to intraperitoneal antibiotics.

Conclusions:

  • Chronic peritoneal dialysis is an increasingly utilized and viable treatment option.
  • Effective management strategies exist for common complications, supporting its widespread use.
