Questions About PD

  1. Hello-Is there guidance on a current PD patient continuing with PD after a colostomy has been placed? Does the patient have to switch to hemodialysis? Thank you!

  2. I am trying to achieve a target of 1.7 for a PD patient who has Crohn's disease. Patient was a slow transporter back in 2010 ( was transplanted) but now upon return to PD is a fast transporter. Patient can only fill with 2L max. Currently is on Cycler for 5 cycles over nine hours - KT/V is 1.45. Patient does make urine last collection approximately 750ml and is on Lasix. I am thinking of keeping APD regimen the same but adding icodextrin for day dwell. Thank you.

  3. What does the acronym SOB mean in reference to peritoneal disease?
