Effects of initial peritoneal dialysis prescription on clinical outcomes in Japanese peritoneal dialysis patients: a cohort study

Abstract Effects of the initial peritoneal dialysis (PD) prescription on clinical outcomes are unknown in Japan. We conducted a cohort study using data from Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study. The patients were divided into two groups by the volume of the initial PD prescriptio...

description Abstract Effects of the initial peritoneal dialysis (PD) prescription on clinical outcomes are unknown in Japan. We conducted a cohort study using data from Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study. The patients were divided into two groups by the volume of the initial PD prescription (≤ 4 L/day or > 4 L/day). Cause-specific Cox proportional hazards survival models were used to model the association between different PD prescriptions and the clinical outcomes. The outcomes included transfer to HD, mortality, the composite of mortality and transfer to HD, peritonitis, hospitalization, and the patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Of the 342 patients, 98 were prescribed ≤ 4 L/day, and 244 were prescribed > 4 L/day. Patients prescribed ≤ 4 L/day were older with a lower percentage being male, had more cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease but lower diabetes prevalence, were more likely to be receiving CAPD, used more assisted PD, and had lower BMI and mean serum creatinine levels. There were no significant differences between groups in terms of transfer to HD, mortality, transfer to HD or mortality, hospitalization, incidence of peritonitis, and PROs. Patients with initial PD prescriptions of ≤ 4 L/day compared to > 4 L/day had similar clinical outcomes. This practice may provide health economic benefits in Japan.
