Complications of CAPD/CCPD in Pediatric Patients

  • Chapter
Chronic Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) and Chronic Cycling Peritoneal Dialysis (CCPD) in Children

Part of the book series: Topics in Renal Medicine ((TIRM,volume 4))

Abstract

Although the principles of peritoneal dialysis were described in the early 1920s [1], the development of the Tenckhoff catheter in the mid-1960s [2] was the advance that allowed for chronic peritoneal dialysis to become a viable long-term treatment for patients with end stage renal failure. As with any treatment, initial reports have been full of promise [3–8]. The passage of time has provided us with the experience and reason so that we may more carefully analyze both the benefits and complications of chronic peritoneal dialysis therapy, especially in children. This chapter will consider the common physical costs of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD) in children with end stage kidney failure. The discussion is broken down into two major categories: a) technical complications limited to the peritoneal cavity and abdominal wall, and b) systemic complications.
