To compare acute peritoneal dialysis with sustained low-efficiency dialysis in critically Ill patients requiring renal replacement therapy

There are very few studies comparing these two modalities of RRT,[1] so we undertook a prospective study to evaluate outcomes of patients receiving intermittent PD (IPD) using rigid peritoneal catheter with SLED.Patients who died within 12 h of initiating RRT, those having preexisting chronic kidney...

Summary:There are very few studies comparing these two modalities of RRT,[1] so we undertook a prospective study to evaluate outcomes of patients receiving intermittent PD (IPD) using rigid peritoneal catheter with SLED.Patients who died within 12 h of initiating RRT, those having preexisting chronic kidney disease/or end-stage renal disease, pregnant patients and subjects with obstructive uropathy were excluded from this study.[...]in the management of dialysis-requiring AKI in critically ill patients, IPD is comparable to SLED in terms of correction of metabolic and clinical derangements.
