1.	Peritonitis 01/01/2007 - "Intraperitoneal administration of antibiotic agents is the most effective treatment of peritoneal dialysis peritonitis" 07/01/2006 - "Early Tenckhoff catheter removal and prophylaxis (antifungal treatment, education, coexisting diseases treatment) may be beneficial for peritoneal dialysis patients with fungal peritonitis." 07/01/1998 - "As experience with peritoneal dialysis (PD) has improved and peritonitis rates have decreased, more patients are surviving for long periods on PD" 10/01/1999 - "IP rHuEPO is effective in children undergoing continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis without requiring increased rHuEPO dosages, but the possibility of an increased risk for peritonitis will need to be further explored." 01/01/1993 - "It is concluded that biofilm analysis and reduction in peritonitis incidence supports the theory that the new catheter and implantation technique form an improved bacteriological barrier in the access for peritoneal dialysis."

2.	Chronic Kidney Failure (Chronic Renal Failure) 07/01/1989 - "The renal pathway of excretion was shown to be important in 6 chronic renal failure patients on continuous peritoneal dialysis with residual renal function who eliminated in 24 h 51.4 +/- 24.0 micrograms Al by urine and only 27.2 +/- 18.4 micrograms Al across the peritoneum following a daily oral application of 342 mg Al. Studies with the isolated perfused rat kidney confirmed the limited renal capacity to eliminate Al. Al clearance declined from 0.75 to less than 0.08 mL/min when the kidney was perfused with 0.04-12.4 micrograms Al/mL medium" 01/01/2007 - "High Body Mass Index (BMI) has been associated with improved survival of End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients on chronic hemodialysis (HD); however, studies on the relationship of BMI with survival in Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) patients have yielded conflicting results" 07/01/2006 - "BACKGROUND: Residual renal function (RRF) is a marker for a good index of health and is associated with improved survival for individuals with end stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis" 06/01/2007 - "The aim of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of diagnostic/therapeutic laparoscopy in the management of peritoneal Tenchoff catheter placement in end-stage renal disease patients who had previous abdominal surgery and malfunctioning peritoneal dialysis catheters" 06/01/2004 - "BACKGROUND: It has been hypothesized that peritoneal dialysis compared to hemodialysis may be less effective in large patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD)" Order ALL the reference details at left...
3.	Kidney Failure (Renal Failure) 10/18/1980 - "In five consecutive patients with severe renal failure secondary to acute myeloma kidney early aggressive therapy, including chemotherapy and peritoneal dialysis, led to a significant improvement in the renal function of four; the fifth patient received a cadaveric renal transplant after 1 year of peritoneal dialysis" 06/01/1986 - "In the patients without renal failure, low-flow peritoneal dialysis (one exchange per day) seemed to be of some value in maintaining remission but was ineffective in treating more active disease" 01/01/1990 - "Peritoneal dialysis is effective in the newborn period in the management of metabolic disturbances as well as renal failure" 06/01/1996 - "The success of peritoneal dialysis in the management of chronic renal failure depends on the proper function of the implanted catheter" 06/01/1992 - "To evaluate the efficacy of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the management of post-traumatic renal failure, the authors reviewed the courses of five critically injured patients treated with PD over an 18-month period" Order ALL the reference details at left...

Infection 02/01/2005 - "Only in patients on hemodialysis or chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) was a significant reduction of the infection rate found" 05/01/2008 - "BACKGROUND: Although results of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in small children have improved during recent years, the youngest children have poorer growth, more infections and higher mortality than do older children" 01/01/2007 - "Many studies have reported the prevalence of transfusion-transmitted virus (TTV) infection in hemodialysis patients, but few reports studied the prevalence of TTV infection in peritoneal dialysis patients" 11/01/2006 - "This study compared infection between hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) from the start of dialysis and evaluated factors that have an impact on infection risk" 02/01/2005 - "Randomized, double-blind trial of antibiotic exit site cream for prevention of exit site infection in peritoneal dialysis patients."

5.	Acute Kidney Failure (Acute Renal Failure) 11/01/1991 - "We conclude that acute peritoneal dialysis is a safe and effective treatment in most pediatric patients with acute renal failure" 01/06/1984 - "In removing the uraemic toxins CAVH is more effective than peritoneal dialysis and, in most instances, satisfactory as sole renal replacement therapy in acute renal failure." 11/01/2006 - "Of 186 patients, 23 (12.3%) had acute renal failure, and 4 of them died (2.15% of all patients underwent operation, 17.3% of those with acute renal failure).It has been demonstrated that the combination of peritoneal dialysis with perioperative ultrafiltration application was effective in providing the required postoperative negative fluid balance in especially complex congenital heart cases and affected survival positively." 06/01/2003 - "CONCLUSION: The early initiation of peritoneal dialysis is an effective and safe method to treat acute renal failure after cardiac operation in children." 01/01/1995 - "To conclude, 10 daily peritoneal dialysis exchanges performed at 1-h intervals after initial stabilization using a surgically placed Tenckhoff catheter is an effective and safe mode of dialytic therapy for children with acute renal failure" Order ALL the reference details at left...
