Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis versus automated peritoneal dialysis for end-stage renal disease

Abstract: APD has not been shown to have significant advantages over CAPD in terms of important clinical outcomes. APD may however be considered advantageous in select group of patients such as in the younger PD population and those in employment or education due to its psychosocial advantages. There is a need for a RCT comparing CAPD with APD with sufficiently large patient numbers looking at important clinical outcomes including residual renal function, accompanied by an economic evaluation to clarify the relative cli… Show more

“…Laboratory measures, except for eGFR, could not be incorporated in the analysis. Furthermore, different PD modalities were not evaluated because of frequent shifts between them and the fact that these modalities have previously been associated with similar outcomes (58,59). Similarly, specific HHD treatment schedules were not examined because of power issues and inconsistency in classification over the study period.…”

“…Of the remaining meta-analyses (20% each), one focused on the comparison of different techniques for the treatment of pilonidal sinus, 89 in which primary closure was associated with lower recurrence rates; one on the comparison of continuous ambulatory dialysis with automated peritoneal dialysis for end-stage renal diseases, 90 in which no difference was found between the types of dialysis in terms of mortality or peritonitis; one on the use of plastic adhesive drapes versus no drape during surgery, 91 in which no advantage was found in the use of drapes regarding the surgical site infection rates; one on the comparison of different techniques of tracheostomy, 92 in which percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy was superior to surgical tracheostomy in terms of wound infections rates; and one on the comparison of different hair removal techniques to reduce SSIs, 93 in which no advantage was found in preoperative hair removal of any type.…”
