17 The advantages of PD Privacy, flexibility and comfort of home treatment No travelling to dialysis centre to perform treatment Can work and plan own days Supplies can be delivered abroad to your holiday destination Less diet and fluid restrictions No needles required
18 Points to consider : Training by dedicated team is required A plastic tube is inserted into your abdomen Storage space is needed for supplies Some people may need help if they have problems with eyesight, dexterity and mobility There is a very small risk of infection

24 Haemodialysis and points to consider Travel to clinic 3 times a week on a fixed schedule Requires permanent access (fistula or dialysis line) Insertion of 2 needles at each treatment Fluid and diet restrictions Work may need to fit around dialysis times Holidays need careful planning
25 Home Haemodialysis Training at QEH normally take place in approx. 6 weeks At designated training suite with times to suit Normally need a carer whilst on dialysis Advantages of dialysis time to suit individual Treatment sessions daily Nocturnal Dialysis
26 Conservative care An alternative for people who are frail or would not benefit from dialysis Older patients not undertaking dialysis there may be no significant shortening of life expectancy Support given from medical team to treat and reduce symptoms of kidney disease Plan for future care
