“…It might be especially difficult to introduce a cycler machine for disabled patients, especially those with blindness or hearing loss, as well as with older patients. In order to induce APD for patients with hearing loss, a telemetry system as a communication tool might be useful [83].…”

This review article is an invited review by both the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) and Japanese Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (JSPD). Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) using a cycler machine is an alternative choice for patients who are on peritoneal dialysis (PD) for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The main purpose is to allow more free time and an improved quality of life for PD patients versus continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD). However, it remains unclear which modality is a better choice, especially with regard to the induction period of PD, due to a lack of research. When we propose PD therapy to ESRD patients, in addition to the obvious benefit of more free time, we also need to consider the advantages and disadvantages with regard to each patient's medical comorbidities, physical condition, social activities, psychological readiness, and medical economics. In this review, we attempted to determine which method is more advantageous overall, APD or CAPD. In conclusion, it is important to consider the medical, social, physical, and economic aspects for each PD patient as well as patient preference when helping patients choose between APD and CAPD.

Patients with kidney failure who require kidney replacement therapy (KRT) have been increasing globally. Home‐based therapies, such as peritoneal dialysis (PD), allow patients to undergo KRT in the home environment, alleviating treatment costs, patient transport, and hospital admission. Peritoneal dialysis‐related peritonitis is still the most frequent complication of PD and is often related to technique failure, which can result in PD failure, transfer to hemodialysis, or mortality. The cause of technique failure is multifactorial, and a portion of technique failure is due to underlying physical or cognitive disabilities. There are several connection devices that have been developed to reduce CAPD‐related peritonitis. These connection devices are reviewed in this article.
