New Acute Peritoneal Dialysis Technique: Wire-Guide Insertion and Long-Term Indwelling of Peritoneal Catheter

Abstract: This paper presents the application of wire-guide insertion of peritoneal dialysis catheter. 30 patients who required acute peritoneal dialysis were treated using a total of 37 peritoneal catheters with the wire-guide method. The catheters were left in place as long as possible (periods totalling 644 days in all). The complication of insertion was minor bleeding with blood-tinged dialysate that tended to clear spontaneously in a few days. Leakage occurred in 17 indwelling catheters but did not occur on the day… Show more

“…Wire-guided percutaneous placement of an indwelling PDC has been described since 1984–1985 (32-35). To date, there are at least 20 other published reports on bedside percutaneous PDC insertion in the English literature, mostly retrospective cohort studies (6-16,22,36-43).…”

“…The indwelling peritoneal catheter was first developed by Henry Tenckhoff in 1968 and was placed using an open surgical technique (12). The percutaneous technique of catheter placement was described as early as 1984 (13). We compared the blind, bedside, midline, percutaneous technique for PD catheter insertion between diabetics and non-diabetics in 245 patients.…”

“…CAPD catheter placement with direct visualization via laparotomy has been the conventional mainstay of access placement, but it necessitates the availability of surgical and anaesthetic services and increases the cost and duration of the hospital stay. Catheter placement by the percutaneous technique was described as early as 1984, 3 and over the last decade has been increasingly used by trained doctors with similar success rates as open placement, reducing incision size and the duration of hospital stay, 4 as well as obviating the need for specialist anaesthetic or surgical services.…”
