DOI: 10.1111/1744-9987.70076

Abstract: Accurate patient self‐assessment of catheter exit‐site conditions is vital to prevent catheter‐related infections (CRI) and ensure effective treatment in patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD). This study aimed to evaluate the concordance between PD patients' self‐assessment… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Nephrology"

DOI: 10.1111/nep.70155

Abstract: Peritoneal catheter thinning is a rare complication that often occurs in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis, finally leading to catheter rupture. Once it occurs near the proximal portion of the exit site, catheter removal and simultaneous… read more here.

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Seminars in Dialysis"

DOI: 10.1111/sdi.13094

Abstract: In case of intractable exit site and/or tunnel infections, peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter removal and re‐insertion are recommended. Previous studies have reported the possibility of catheter salvage before removal, but they were either case‐series or… read more here.
