2 liter fill and drain test Inflow difficulty Fibrin clot Incomplete drainage Positional drainage Leaks PD: mechanical complications Problem Details Management considerations Inflow problem Outflow problem Pleural effusion Typically seen early after catheter placement Pain can result from low ph of PD solution or from peritonitis From clots, fibrin, or constipation From congenital or acquired defects in diaphragm; more common on right side, in women, and in PKD patients -Reduce fill volume and intraperitoneal pressure -Can accomplish this with bed rest -Test for peritonitis -Can slow infusion rate, add bicarbonate or lidocaine to bag -Treat constipation -Leaving fluid incompletely drained after prior dwell reduces outflow pain -Diagnose by testing glucose on pleural fluid and or with radio-labeled albumin or methylene blue -Treat with PD holiday, VATS, or open surgery -Can suffer from under-dialysis -Must achieve drain volume > 9 L/24 hrs Courtesy Dr. Eliot Heher, MGH Peritoneal Equilibration Testing Type Frequency, % D/P Creatinine at 4 hours Comments High 10 0.82-1.03 -Best managed with cycler -Can experience UF failure -Albumin often low High Average > 50 0.65-0.81 -Can be managed with CAPD or cycler-7.5 to 9 L/24 hrs Low Average > 30 0.50-0.64 -Standard PD high dose needed for larger patients Low 5 0.34-0.49 -Manage with long dwell CAPD -Can suffer from underdialysis -Must achieve drain volume > 9 L/24 hrs Courtesy Dr. Eliot Heher, MGH 11
Peritoneal dialysis: monitoring and prevention of volume overload Monitoring for volume overload Active surveillance Monthly review of PD prescription Urine volume measurement on every 1-2 month basis Overnight drain volume review in CAPD patients Day time drain volume review in APD patients PET testing as indicated 12
Potential areas of intervention Dietary salt and fluid intake Residual renal function Diuretics Avoid nephrotoxic agents Angiotensin inhibition Control of HTN Treatment of urinary obstruction Adherence to PD prescription PD catheter function Matching dwell time to transport type Adapted from Abu-Alfa et al. Kidney Int Suppl. 2002 Oct;(81):S8-16 and UpToDate. Diuretics in PD Evolution of urine volume (UV) over one year of peritoneal dialysis (PD). UV at randomization was comparable between groups. In the diuretic group ( ), it remained constant over one year of CAPD, whereas in the control group ( ), UV declined. Data presented are mean SEM at each time point. Medcalf et al.

Questions Fluid Overload vs UF Failure An Important Distinction Fluid overload is a common clinical syndrome with multiple causes It is the inability to maintain target weight and oedema free state UF failure is a pathophysiologic characterisation of one of the causes of the clinical syndrome Distinction between syndrome and cause determines the intervention to be taken Mujais, et al.
