Background
Baseline residual kidney function (RKF) and its rate of decline during follow-up are purported
to be reliable outcome predictors of patients undergoing Peritoneal Dialysis (PD).
The independent contribution of each of these factors has not been elucidated.
Method
We report a multicenter, longitudinal study of 493 patients incident on PD and satisfying two
conditions: a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) 1 mL/minute and a daily diuresis 300 mL.
The main variables were the GFR (mean of urea and creatinine clearances) at PD inception
and the GFR rate of decline during follow-up. The main outcome variable was patient mortality.
The secondary outcome variables were: PD technique failure and risk of peritoneal
infection. The statistical analysis was based on a multivariate approach, placing an emphasis
on the interactions between the two main study variables. |
