Peritoneal dialysis in children

  • Chapter
Peritoneal dialysis

Abstract

Peritoneal dialysis has been a mainstay in the treatment of uremic infants and children for more than twenty years. The intrinsic simplicity and safety of the technique and the relative ease with which it can be adapted for use in patients of widely divergent ages and sizes have resulted in widespread acceptance of peritoneal dialysis as the dialytic treatment of choice for infants and children with acute renal failure (ARF) [1, 2]. Most nephrologists who routinely treat pediatric patients have had extensive clinical experience with peritoneal dialysis in the setting of ARF. Until very recently, however, a role for peritoneal dialysis in the treatment of large numbers of children with chronic renal failure seemed doubtful, despite the fact that successful maintenance peritoneal dialysis had been described in children as early as 1973 [3]. Of the 823 children under the age of 15 years who were alive on dialysis in the member countries of the European dialysis and Transplant Association on December 31, 1979, only 38 (4.6%) were being treated with peritoneal dialysis [4]. A similar situation existed in the United States where of the 1819 children under the age of 20 years who received maintenance dialysis during the last six months of 1980, only 128 (7%) were treated with peritoneal dialysis [5].
