Introduction
Term used for treatment of end-stage renal disease. Treatment modalities would include:
- renal dialysis
- renal transplantation
- investigational wearable artificial kidney[4]
* clinical outcomes are the same for peritoneal dialysis vs hemodialysis
Indications
- end-stage renal disease
- early renal replacement therapy of no benefit for patients with septic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome or other critical illness[1][2]
- oliguria or anuria for > 72 hours or elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN; > 112mg/dL)[3]
Management
- patient education prior to end-stage renal disease increases likelihood of
- listing for renal transplant
- preemptive renal transplantation
- superior quality of life, improved survival, less expensive than long-term renal dialysis[1]
- selection of home modality (peritoneal dialysis)[1]
- mortality benefit
