Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What regulation shall we have for the operation? Shall a man transfuse he knows not what. to correct he knows not what. God knows how (l)? Dr. Henry Stubbs Royal College of Physicians circa 1670 If dialysis therapy were a new phannaceutical product being evaluated by the FDA now, it might not be approved for marketing. The recommended dose, its potential toxicity, the side effects of under-or over-dialysis as well as its efficacy have been the subject of very few studies. The high mortality rate associated with the treatment may raise a few eyebrows. That it is a life-saving modality of treatment is undoubtedly true for more than 100,000 patients in the United States and for more than a million patients world wide. Because dialysis has extended the lives of many people by a variable period of time, most nephrologists have "rested on their laurels" and did not vigorously pursue studies to optimize these treatments. But facts have a way of intruding in all our lives and the facts are that the overall mortality rate of dialysis patients in the United States is rising and stands close to 25% per year and is closer to 33% per year for patients between the ages of 65 and 74 (2). These mortality figures are considerably higher for age-adjusted dialysis populations in Europe and particu larly in Japan, and certainly for the age-adjusted nonnal population.

Download or read book Automated Peritoneal Dialysis written by Claudio Ronco and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has been the standard peritoneal procedure since the seventies, different schedules of automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) have emerged during the eighties. Today, APD is considered a valuable tool in the management of ESRD patients, together with CAPD and hemodialysis. However, despite its frequent use, APD has not yet been well assessed, and most pathophysiological and clinical studies on PD refer to CAPD. In this book, major experts in the field therefore discuss and evaluate the insights gained on APD up to now, presenting a comprehensive review of all experimental, technical and clinical aspects related to the various treatments grouped under the definition of APD. The recent developments presented are divided into four sections: membrane permeability, transport mechanisms and kinetic modeling applied to APD; prescription and adequacy of different APD treatment schedules; dialysis machines and solutions for APD, and, lastly, different clinical aspects such as the possibility to maintain APD program and residual renal function. Physicians involved in ESRD care, renal fellows and scientists both in the academic world and in the hospital setting will undoubtedly profit from this timely publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite constant significant advances, cardiovascular as well as more general outcomes of hemodialysis treatment remain unsatisfactory. The introduction of innovative 'high retention onset' membranes has led to the development of a new treatment modality called 'expanded hemodialysis' (HDx), which is the focus of this book. This new therapy is likely to benefit end-stage kidney disease patients, thanks to enhanced removal of molecules retained by current dialysis techniques. HDx is simple to set up and application does not require special hardware or specific nursing skills. This book contains emerging evidence and fascinating new hypotheses on HDx. It is highly recommended for all physicians and healthcare professionals who are caring for dialysis patients and are seeking innovation and improved care solutions. It will also be of considerable interest to students and fellows.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a generation haemodialysis has been the principal method of treating patients with both acute and chronic renal failure. Initially, developments and improvements in the system were highly technical and relevant to only a relatively small number of specialists in nephrology. More recently, as advances in therapy have dem onstrated the value of haemofiltration in the intensive therapy unit and haemoperfusion for certain types of poisoning, the basic principles of haemodialysis have been perceived as important in many areas of clinical practice. In this volume, the potential advantages of bicarbonate haemo dialysis are objectively assessed, the technical and clinical aspects of both haemofiltration and haemoperfusion discussed and the con tinuing problems associated with such extra corporeal circuits analysed. All the chapters have been written by recognized experts in their field. The increasing availability of highly technical facilities for appropriately selected patients should ensure that the information contained in the book is relevant not only to nephrologists but to all practising clinicians. ABOUT THE EDITOR Dr Graeme R. D. Catto is Professor in Medicine and Therapeutics at the University of Aberdeen and Honorary Consultant Phy sician/Nephrologist to the Grampian Health Board. His current inter est in transplant immunology was stimulated as a Harkness Fellow at Harvard Medical School and the Peter Bent Brighton Hospital, Boston, USA.

Download or read book Prescription Patterns in Dialysis Patients U2013 Differences Between Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis and Opportunities for Deprescription written by Judith Marin and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Dialysis patients are at high risk for polypharmacy with many comorbidities and complications from their disease and treatment. The prescribing patterns and burden of polypharmacy in dialysis patients, and specifically the difference between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis prescribing are not well characterized. The objectives of this study were to review prescribing patterns for dialysis patients, to analyse any differences between hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD), and to identify potential opportunities for deprescription.Methods: We completed a retrospective analysis of demographic and medication data for patients who were on chronic dialysis from June 3rd 2015 to October 1st 2015. Both prescription and non-prescription medications were collected. Medications were classified by indication - (1) renal complications (2) cardiovascular (CV) (3) diabetes (DM) or (4) symptom management. Medications were also classified as a u201cPotentially Inappropriate Medicationsu201d(PIMs) or not. Ethics approval was granted from the University of British Columbia Research and Ethics Board. Results: 3017 patients metinclusion/exclusion criteria (2,243 HD, 774 PD). The mean (SD) age was 66.2 (14.8) years. The HD group had more patients over 80 years old (22.1% vs 12.5%) and more patients with DM and CV disease. The mean number (SD) of prescribed medications was 17.71 (5.72) with more medications in the HD group versus the PD group. The mean number of medications increased with dialysis vintage in both groups. HD patients were on more medications for renal complication and symptom management than PD patients. . Patients on HD were prescribed more PIMs than patients on PD (5.37 (2.83) vs 4.02 (2.37)). Conclusion: This is the first study to review and characterize both the prescription and non-prescription medication use in HD patients and PD patients. Patients in both groups experience polypharmacy and prescription of PIMs. Patients on HD receive more overall medications and more PIMs. There are opportunities for future systematic and patient informed deprescription initiatives in both patient groups.
