Q.661 What are the recommendation related to placement and maintenance of P.D. catheter?                                        

A. Consistent “ease” bidirectional flow of Dzt. is 🠊 the main function of PD cth.. Cth.'s function depends upon:[design, implantation site & configuration of system used to perform DX. exchanges]. Most cth. are flexible tubes é multiple ports in distal (intraabd.) segment wch is ideally positioned freely in intraabd. pelvic area. Many types are available. Cth. used by PD program primarily depends upon preferences & experience of clinician , é some guidelines stating tht no sp. cth. is definitively better. However, double is preferred over single cth., it hs fewer complic. & longer time to 1st peritonitis episode & longer survival.

Site of placement: paramedian or lateral abdominal rather thn midline. In some ptns, presternal cth. may be preferred. A downwardly-directed tunnel is preferred & prox. A.B. shd be given at time of placement. Choice of cth. technique depends upon preferences & expertise of surgeon or nephrologist inserting the cath.. No technique showed to be preferable overall, each method hs its benefits & S.E.

Q.662. How to prevent peritonitis in continuous P.D.?  

A. To limit the risk of peritonitis in PD. : All ptns must be taught  proper techniques to 🠋 risk of infection. A.B., e.g. cephalosporin, just prior to cth. placement to 🠋incidence of wound infc. & peritonitis is recommended.

Close attention👆 to cth. implantation technique is needed. Improper cth. placement predisposes to cth. infection. All ptns should use Y systems or cyclers & if cost is not an issue, Y & double bag systems are recommended to further decrease likelihood of contamination. Standard spike 💢 systems shd not be utilized. Ptn. é recurrent peritonitis, one needs to review their technique, rule out exit site or cth. biofilm problems, or consider possibility that ptn is a nasal carrier for S. aureus.

Q.663. What are the noninfectious complications of continuous P.D.? 

 

A. These complications occur é either CAPD or CCPD us. due to 🠝IAP resulting fr. pres. of Dzt into Pr. cavity 🠞 [GERD & delayed gastric emptying, back & abdominal pain & pl. effusion]. Other problems incl.[hemoPr., hypo-k+, & dys.Mg+]. GERD & delayed gastric emptying should be considered in well-dialyzed ptn C/O of n. & v., fullness & epigastric discomfort. Added to general measures, ttt of GERD in CAPD/CCPD may involve 🠋supine intra.Pr. fluid vol.. However, since achieving adequate DX. depends in large part on exchange vol., this strategy usyally require careful tailoring of DX. prescription to avoid inadequate Ssc.. A pleuroPr. leak should be considered in ptn. é pl. eff. (esp. Rt.-sided eff.) without other Sns of H.F.. Abdominal pain shd prompt consideration of peritonitis, cth. malfunc., or infusion pain fr. high dextrose or acidic Dzt. infusion pain may be ttt é intra-Pr. infusion of HCO3. Unlike HDX., hypoK+ is common in PD. Liberalization of dietary K+ & oral K+ suppl. can be needed.

Q.664. How to adjust iron balance in predialysis, P.D., & home HDX patients?

A. Iron stores must be assessed prior to starting iron therapy & non-R. causes of anemia shd be excluded. Evaluation of R. anemia must include:[RBCs indices, Retics, s. iron, TIBC, TSAT, s. ferritin & occult bld in stool]. “Absolute” iron def. is to be present when TSAT ≤20 % in CKD & s. ferritin ≤100 ng/mL in pre-DX. & P.D. ptns &200 ng/mL in home HDX ptn.“Functional” iron def. is ch.ch. by pres. of adequate iron stores, but é relative inability to mobilize iron for erythropoiesis . Functional def. is ass. é  TSAT ≤20 % & 🠝ferritin (100-800 ng/mL or higher). However, TSAT & s. ferritin above these levels (20 % & 800 ng /mL, resp.) do not necessarily indicate tht further iron wd be without an EPO stimulating effect. Targeting HB. é range of 10-12 g/dL in CKD ttted é Epo is suggested. Thus, iron thpy & Epo are indicated in anemia due to CKD & H.B. <10 g/dL. Do NOT target HB. >13 g/dL. Ptn é anemia due to CKD & absolute iron deficiency (TSAT ≤20 % [for preDX., P.D., & home HDX] & ferritin100 ng/mL [for preDX & P.D.] or ferritin200 ng/mL [for home HDX.]), iron thpy prior to use of Epo is recommended. Anemia due to CKD & borderline iron indices, i.e TSAT20 % (for preDx, P.D., & home HDX.) & ferritin between 100 & 500 ng/mL (for pre-DX & P.D.) or ferritin betw. 200 & 500 ng/mL (for home HDX.), oral iron thpy prior to Epo. is suggested. In such ptn., ttt é i.v. iron cn be considered but only if underlying infec. and/or cause of  inflmm. state have been excluded. Such ptn must be closely monitored for incr. ferritin & adverse effects of iron. We do not routinely give i.v. iron to ptn é ferritin > 500 ng/mL👆. Among preDX. & P.D., initial iron therapy é oral iron rather thn parenteral iron thpy is recommended.

Home HDX.: initial iron therapy é oral iron rather thn parenteral iron is suggested. Oral iron=200 mg/d. elemental iron. Due to simplicity & cost issues🠞 ferrous So4 325 mg (65 mg elemental iron/t.) t.i.d.. Among pre-DX., P.D. & home HDX., goals é initial iron therapy incl.:[🠝H.B. & 🠝TSAT> 20-25 % but <50 %]. In preDx. & P.D., aiming to maintain ferritin > 100 ng/mL but <500 ng/mL & for home HDX., aim to maintain ferritin>200 ng/mL but <500 ng/mL. Ptn.s receiving EPO 🠞 maintenance iron thpy . Among preDX & P.D.: goalsof maintenance iron to be TSAT betw. 20-50 % & s. ferritin between 100 & 500 ng/mL . In home HDX., it’s recommended: TSAT be maintained>20 % & s. ferritin> 200 ng/mL & TSAT < 50 % & s. ferritin <500 ng/mL. Iron indices are reevaluated after 1-2 m. of oral iron. If HB. doesn’t incr. to target (é modest Epo.), TSAT remains < 20 % for all ptn. , and/or s.ferritin still< 100 (for preDx & P.D.) or < 200 ng/mL (for HDX. Ptn.)  parenteral iron shd be started. If parenteral iron initiated, ferric gluconate in sucrose cx or iron sucrose rather than iron 👽dextran is recommended, optimal reg. are unclear, but the following regimen are suggested :

300-400 mg iron sucrose, once/w. (or less often if necessary, i.e for ptn. convenience, etc.): 2-3 doses🠞total: 600-1000 mg, as needed. If not well tolerated, additional 200 mg can be used. 250 mg of ferric gluconate in sucrose cx can given once/ w. (or less often if necessary, ie é ptn. convenience, etc.) 3-4 doses, as needed. We don’t routinely give i.v iron é ferritin>500 ng/mL& anemia, alth. ptn. should be individualized. So, initial 🠝Epo. dose alone, without i.v. iron, may be considered if H.B. is <11 g/dL é Epo dose that’s not partic. high. If this’s not successful in raising H.B or further increase is desired 🠞judicious suppl. iron with or without further🠝 in Epo dose.   💋

                                                  

Q.665. What are the suggested modalities for diagnosis of abdominal & thoracic cavity defects in P.D. patients?            

A. Different diagnostic modalities can be used alone or in combination to diagnose abd. wall and/or thoracic defects in PD. Based on sensitivity, specificity & cost, we use & recommended CT peritoneography as initial diagnostic modality . It’s the most commonly used modality in U.S. & offers distinct adv. over plain CT scans.

Although MR peritoneography hs  similar sensitivity to CT pr. graphy in Dgx these defects, use of gadolinium in DX ptn.s has been ass. é 🠞 severe syndrome of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. So, Gadolinium-based img. should be avoided  MR peritoneography using DX. fluid as a contrast medium may offer a valuable, cheap & user friendly alternative. However, further study in additional centers is required to validate its usefulness. Isotope scanning is principally used in allergic ptn. to iodinated contrast used in CT Pr.graphy.
