“…KEY WORDS: Hemodialysis; hospitalization. P eople with kidney failure have a high burden of comorbid illness (1) and consume a disproportionate share of resources (2,3), including hospital beds (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14). Hospitalization rates are a relevant consideration when choosing or recommending a dialysis modality, because those rates affect quality of life for patients (15,16), inform resource allocation (for example, the number of inpatient beds earmarked for a dialysis program), and influence the cost of caring for the dialysis population (2).…”

“…The data about relative rates of hospitalization for people treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) are conflicting (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14). Given that many jurisdictions around the world are promoting PD and that a randomized comparison is not likely to be successful, efforts to reduce bias in observational studies are important.…”

“…The percent contribution of cardiovascular death to the overall mortality of the dialysis population is not significantly different between patients receiving CAPD and patients receiving HD. Several large European studies estimated cardiovascular pathology to be responsible for 27%-56% of the deaths of patients on CAPD and 25%-44% of the deaths of patients on HD in series, [4][5][6] and in the United States it is estimated to cause around 45% of the deaths of patients on dialysis by either technique. 7 Many studies have found CAPD patients to have a more atherogenic lipoprotein profile than do HD patients.…”

“…5 The percent contribution of cardiovascular death to the overall mortality of the dialysis population is not significantly different between patients treated with chronic hemodialysis and patients treated with chronic peritoneal dialysis. Some European studies have estimated cardiovascular pathology to be responsible for 27%-56% of the deaths of patients on CAPD and for 25%-44% of the deaths of patients on hemodialysis [4][5][6] ; in the United States it is responsible for around 45% of the deaths of patients receiving dialysis by either technique. 7 High-resolution B-mode ultrasonography is increasingly used in epidemiologic and clinical research to noninvasively study the atherosclerotic process in the carotid artery.…”

“…Their rate of cardiovascular mortality is approximately 50%-five to 10 times higher than in the general population. [1][2][3][4] EVorts to optimise the medical management of these patients in order to improve their quality of life and survival prospects are thus warranted.…”
