Abstract
The National Institutes of Health have supported a CAPD Registry. Since there is no USA Registry for patients undergoing all forms of chronic dialysis therapy, the USA CAPD Registry was created to monitor certain outcome measures during the rapid growth and development of this relatively newer form of therapy. Although newer Registry reports will have been released by the time this book is published, a copy of the report released in early 1984 is enclosed for several reasons. First, the report represents the status of the Registry at the time this book was prepared. This may clarify to some extent the state of affairs impacting on the thinking of respective authors. Secondly, the report will provide the reader with an example of the type of information that can be expected to evolve from the Registry.
