STarting incrEmental Prescription of Peritoneal Dialysis
An International, Multi-centre, Randomised Controlled Trial Co-designed With Consumers With Lived Experience of Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) to Determine the Optimal Approach to Starting Patients With Kidney Failure on PD
Stručný súhrn
Kidney failure is fatal without dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) completed at home offers greater flexibility and autonomy for patients . However, PD is often prescribed for 24 hours/day, 7 days/week for every patient starting dialysis. This practice is not evidence-informed, may be unnecessary and potentially harmful. The STEP-PD trial aims to determine the optimal approach to commencing patients on PD through starting at low dose PD and incrementing over time.
