Catheter-related complications, including infection, dialysate leak, and malfunction, are the principal causes of peritoneal dialysis (PD) failure. To determine risk factors predisposing to these complications, we conducted a retrospective study of 90 children on chronic PD who received 127 catheters from January 1990 to December 2000. There was a significant risk for dialysate leak when PD catheters were used early (14 days). There was no significant difference in malfunction and infection rate between early and delayed use groups. Weight and height <5th percentile, low serum albumin, and history of abdominal surgery were not associated with an increased risk of complications. History of dialysis prior to catheter placement and presence of a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) were both associated with significant infection risk. Patients

“…Successful catheter salvage has also been demonstrated amongst patients requiring repeat wire-guided manipulations with secondary salvage rates as high as 63 % [212]. The utilization of a Fogarty balloon catheter placed through the lumen of the dialysis catheter has also been described to facilitate manipulation of the catheter under fluoroscopy [216]. In summary, wire manipulation has initial success rates of 64 to 86 % but longer term success ([30 days) is significantly lower (as low as 29 %).…”
