Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a leading cause of kidney failure, affects most dialysis patients and associates with adverse outcomes. Hypertension can be difficult to control with dialysis modalities having differential effects on sodium and water removal. There are two main types of peritoneal dialysis (PD), automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). It is unknown whether one is superior to the other in controlling blood pressure (BP). Therefore, the aim of our study was to analyse the impact of switching between these two PD modalities on BP levels in a nationally representative cohort. METHODS This was a cohort study of patients on PD from 122 dialysis centres in Brazil (BRAZPD II study). Clinical and laboratory data were collected monthly throughout the study duration. We selected all patients who remained on PD at least 6 months and 3 months on each modality at minimum. We compared the changes in mean systolic/diastolic blood pressures (SBP/DBP) before and after modality transition using a multilevel mixed-model where patients were at first level and their clinics at the second level. RESULTS We analysed data of 848 patients (814 starting on CAPD and 34 starting on APD). The SBP decreased by 4 (SD 22) mmHg when transitioning from CAPD to APD (p < 0.001) and increased by 4 (SD 21) mmHg when transitioning from APD to CAPD (p = 0.38); consistent findings were seen for DBP. There was no significant change in the number of antihypertensive drugs prescribed before and after transition. CONCLUSIONS Transition between PD modalities seems to directly impact on BP levels. Further studies are needed to confirm if switching to APD could be an effective treatment for uncontrolled hypertension among CAPD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microcirculatory endothelial dysfunction is a complex phenomenon that contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease. However, the relationship between microcirculatory endothelial dysfunction and macrovascular disease remains incompletely understood. Fluid overload is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. Therefore, we investigated the effects of chronic fluid overload on both the microcirculation and macrocirculation in these patients. METHODS Thirty patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis were included in this cross-sectional study. We measured their central blood pressure and pulse wave velocity, assessed their microvascular endothelial function using drug-induced iontophoresis with laser Doppler flowmetry, and determined the amount of fluid overload using bioimpedance. We conducted a Spearman correlation analysis, univariate analysis, and stepwise multivariate regression models to determine the associations among the hemodynamic parameters. RESULTS Acetylcholine-induced iontophoresis with laser Doppler flowmetry showed a correlation with both brachial and central pulse pressure (PP), but not with pulse wave velocity. Fluid overload was associated with both central and brachial PP and remained an independent predictor of central PP even after adjusting for multiple factors. However, fluid overload was not associated with microcirculatory endothelial function. CONCLUSION In peritoneal dialysis patients, we observed a significant association between central PP and microvascular endothelial function, indicating a connection between macrocirculation and microcirculation. However, conclusive evidence regarding fluid overload as a mediator between these circulatory systems is lacking. Further research is needed to investigate this relationship.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with end-stage kidney disease. Currently, thrice-weekly in-center hemodialysis for 3 to 5 hours per session is the most common therapy worldwide for patients with treated kidney failure. Outcomes with thrice-weekly in-center hemodialysis are poor. Emerging evidence supports the overarching hypothesis that a more physiological approach to administering dialysis therapy, including in the home through home hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, may lead to improvement in several cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular outcomes compared with thrice-weekly in-center hemodialysis. The Advancing American Kidney Health Initiative, which has a goal of increasing the use of home dialysis, is aligned with the American Heart Association's 2024 mission to champion a full and healthy life and health equity. We conclude that incorporation of interdisciplinary care models to increase the use of home dialysis therapies in an equitable manner will contribute to the ultimate goal of improving outcomes for patients with kidney failure and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) devices can help assess volume overload in patients receiving maintenance peritoneal dialysis. However, the effects of BIA on the short-term hard end points of peritoneal dialysis lack consistency. This study aimed to test whether BIA-guided fluid management could improve short-term outcomes in patients on peritoneal dialysis. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS A single-center, open-labeled, randomized, controlled trial was conducted. Patients on prevalent peritoneal dialysis with volume overload were recruited from July 1, 2013 to March 30, 2014 and followed for 1 year in the initial protocol. All participants with volume overload were 1:1 randomized to the BIA-guided arm (BIA and traditional clinical methods) and control arm (only traditional clinical methods). The primary end point was all-cause mortality and secondary end points were cardiovascular disease mortality and technique survival. RESULTS A total of 240 patients (mean age, 49 years; men, 51%; diabetic, 21%, 120 per group) were enrolled. After 1-year follow-up, 11(5%) patients died (three in BIA versus eight in control) and 21 patients were permanently transferred to hemodialysis (eight in BIA versus 13 in control). The rate of extracellular water/total body water decline in the BIA group was significantly higher than that in the control group. The 1-year patient survival rates were 96% and 92% in BIA and control groups, respectively. No significant statistical differences were found between patients randomized to the BIA-guided or control arm in terms of patient survival, cardiovascular disease mortality, and technique survival (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Although BIA-guided fluid management improved the fluid overload status better than the traditional clinical method, no significant effect was found on 1-year patient survival and technique survival in patients on peritoneal dialysis.

A comparative analysis of ambulatory BP profile and arterial stiffness between CAPD and APD. J Hum Hypertens 2021; 36:254-262. [PMID: 33692459 DOI: 10.1038/s41371-021-00516-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2020] [Revised: 02/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Prior studies have associated automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) with less effective volume and blood pressure (BP) control as compared with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Our study aimed to compare the volume status, ambulatory BP profile and severity of arterial stiffness between patients treated with CAPD versus APD. In a case-control design, 28 CAPD patients were matched in 1:1 ratio with 28 controls receiving APD for age, gender and diabetic status. Body composition was assessed with the method of bioimpendence spectroscopy. Twenty-four hours ambulatory BP monitoring with the Mobil-O-Graph device (IEM, Germany) was performed to determine peripheral and central hemodynamic parameters, heart rate-adjusted augmentation index (AIx75) and pulse wave velocity (PWV). Standardized office BP, antihypertensive medication use and extracellular-to-total body water ratio did not differ between CAPD and APD groups. Twenty-four hours brachial systolic BP (129.0 ± 17.3 vs. 128.1 ± 14.2 mmHg, P = 0.83) and 24-h aortic systolic BP (116.9 ± 16.4 vs. 116.4 ± 11.6 mmHg, P = 0.87) were similar in patients treated with CAPD versus APD. Similarly, there was no significant difference between PD modalities in severity of arterial stiffness, as assessed with 24-h AIx75 (24.8 ± 8.9 vs. 22.5 ± 9.1, P = 0.36) and 24-h PWV (9.1 ± 2.4 vs. 8.8 ± 2.1 m/s, P = 0.61). The present study suggests that there is no difference in peripheral and central hemodynamic parameters as well as in the severity of arterial stiffness between CAPD and APD. However, these observations should be interpreted within the context of clinical characteristics of patients included in this case-control study. The comparative effectiveness of these 2 PD modalities warrants further investigation in larger longitudinal studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION It is widely known that dialysis patients have significantly impaired functional outcomes and arterial stiffness, but still few studies have investigated the effects of dialysis longitudinally by a multidimensional approach. We aimed to assess longitudinal patterns of physical activity (PA), physical functioning (PF), health-related quality of life (HrQoL), body composition (BC), and arterial stiffness in prevalent dialysis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-nine prevalent dialysis patients (23 conventional hemodialysis [CHD] and 16 peritoneal dialysis) with a mean vintage of 25.7 (±22.1) months were included in this observational prospective study with a 2-year follow-up, and at baseline 20 healthy controls were included. Measurements were performed every 6 months. HrQoL was assessed using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire. PA was assessed using the SenseWear™ Pro3 accelerometer. PF was assessed by walking speed, the PF subscale of the SF-36, and handgrip strength (HGS). BC was assessed using the Body Composition Monitor® and arterial stiffness by measuring carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV). The longitudinal trend was assessed using linear mixed models, correcting for sex, age, and dialysis vintage. For PWV, the trend was additionally corrected for diabetes and systolic blood pressure. RESULTS After correction, no statistically significant changes over time were observed for the parameters of PA, PF, HrQoL, and BC. In the combined group and in the group of CHD patients only, a significant change was observed for PWV (overall trend: p = 0.007 and p = 0.008, respectively). A statistically significant difference at baseline was observed between dialysis patients and healthy controls in all parameters, except for HGS and PWV. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION We observed no statistically significant changes in functional outcomes during a 2-year follow-up period, but a significant increase was observed for arterial stiffness. These results might suggest that after a certain period in time, a relatively stable course is present in functional outcomes, but an ongoing deterioration in arterial stiffness occurs, which might increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in these patients.

Abstract
AIM In peritoneal dialysis (PD), fluid overload is frequent and associated with cardiac dysfunction and mortality. As it is considered a modifiable risk factor, we wished to describe clinical determinants of fluid overload in a longitudinal cohort of PD outpatients. METHODS We consecutively included PD outpatients treated with continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) or automated PD (APD) attending for their routine clinical visit at a single tertiary hospital. Extracellular water (ECW) to total body water (TBW) ratio was measured by multifrequency bioelectrical impedance. Peritoneal transport characteristics were measured with a standard peritoneal equilibration test. Patients had a second follow-up visit with the same measurements. Univariable and multivariable mixed linear regression models were conducted with ECW/TBW as the dependent variable. RESULTS A total of 155 patients were enrolled with a median follow-up time of 12 months. Median dialysis vintage was 13.5 ± 3.4 months. Overall mean value of ECW/TBW was 39.3% ± 1.1. In multivariable analysis, factors positively associated with ECW/TBW were: Age (P < .001), diabetes (P = .002), and SBP (P = .028). Factors negatively associated with ECW/TBW were: nPNA (P = .001), serum albumin (P < .001) and PTH (P = .014). None of the considered variable showed a significant interaction with time. CONCLUSION We confirm a high prevalence of fluid overload in PD patients and show that it is strongly associated with older age, diabetes, hypoalbuminemia and protein energy wasting. In contrast, when PD prescription is tailored to patient's individual characteristics, residual renal function, PD modality and peritoneal characteristics are not decisive in controlling volume status.

Abstract
Background Failure to control volume is the second most common cause of peritoneal dialysis (PD) technique failure. Sodium is primarily removed by convection, but according to the three-pore model, water and sodium movements are not necessarily concordant. We wished to determine factors increasing sodium to water clearance in clinical practice. Methods We reviewed 24-h peritoneal dialytic sodium removal (DSR) and ultrafiltration (UF) volume in consecutive PD patients attending for routine assessment of peritoneal membrane function and adequacy testing. We used a regression model with the DSR/UF ratio as the dependent variable. A second model with DSR as the dependent variable and interaction testing for UF was used as sensitivity analysis. Results We included 718 adult PD patients. Mean values were 51.8 ± 64.6 mmol/day and 512 ± 517 mL/day for DSR and UF, respectively. In multivariable analysis, DSR/UF ratio was positively associated with transport type (fast versus slow, P < 0.001), serum sodium (P < 0.001) and diabetes (P = 0.026), and negatively associated with PD mode [automated PD versus continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD), P < 0.001] and the use of 2.27% glucose dialysate (P < 0.001). Sensitivity analysis showed positive interaction with UF for transport type (P < 0.001) and serum sodium (P = 0.032) and negative interaction for PD mode (P < 0.001) and cycles number (P < 0.001). Conclusions CAPD, fast transport and high serum sodium allow relatively more sodium to be removed compared with water. Icodextrin has no effect on sodium removal once confounders have been accounted for. Although widely used in the assessment of PD patients, UF should not be considered as a surrogate for DSR in clinical practice.

Abstract
Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is routinely used in peritoneal dialysis patients and might aid fluid status assessment in patients with liver cirrhosis, but the effect of ascites volume removal on BIS-readings is unknown. Here we determined changes in BIS-derived parameters and clinical signs of fluid overload from before to after abdominal paracentesis. Per our pre-specified sample size calculation, we studied 31 cirrhotic patients, analyzing demographics, labs and clinical parameters along with BIS results. Mean volume of the abdominal paracentesis was 7.8 ± 2.6 L. From pre-to post-paracentesis, extracellular volume (ECV) decreased (20.2 ± 5.2 L to 19.0 ± 4.8 L), total body volume decreased (39.8 ± 9.8 L to 37.8 ± 8.5 L) and adipose tissue mass decreased (38.4 ± 16.0 kg to 29.9 ± 12.9 kg; all p < 0.002). Correlation of BIS-derived parameters from pre to post-paracentesis ranged from R² = 0.26 for body cell mass to R² = 0.99 for ECV. Edema did not correlate with BIS-derived fluid overload (FO ≥ 15% ECV), which occurred in 16 patients (51.6%). In conclusion, BIS-derived information on fluid status did not coincide with clinical judgement. The changes in adipose tissue mass support the BIS-model assumption that fluid in the peritoneal cavity is not detectable, suggesting that ascites (or peritoneal dialysis fluid) mass should be subtracted from adipose tissue if BIS is used in patients with a full peritoneal cavity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal fluid balance for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients requires both water and sodium removal. Previous studies have variously reported that continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) removes more or equivalent amounts of sodium than automated PD (APD) cyclers. We therefore wished to determine peritoneal dialysate losses with different PD treatments. METHODS Peritoneal and urinary sodium losses were measured in 24-h collections of urine and PD effluent in patients attending for their first assessment of peritoneal membrane function. We adjusted fluid and sodium losses for CAPD patients for the flush before fill technique. RESULTS We reviewed the results from 659 patients, mean age 57 ± 16 years, 56.3% male, 38.9% diabetic, 24.0% treated by CAPD, 22.5% by APD and 53.5% APD with a day-time exchange, with icodextrin prescribed to 72.8% and 22.7 g/L glucose to 31.7%. Ultrafiltration was greatest for CAPD 650 (300-1100) vs 337 (103-598) APD p < 0.001, vs 474 (171-830) mL/day for APD with a day exchange. CAPD removed most sodium 79 (33-132) vs 23 (- 2 to 51) APD p < 0.001, and 51 (9-91) for APD with a day exchange, and after adjustment for the CAPD flush before fill 57 (20-113), p < 0.001 vs APD. APD patients with a day exchanged used more hypertonic glucose dialysates [0 (0-5) vs CAPD 0 (0-1) L], p < 0.001. CONCLUSION CAPD provides greater ultrafiltration and sodium removal than APD cyclers, even after adjusting for the flush-before fill, despite greater hypertonic usage by APD cyclers. Ultrafiltration volume and sodium removal were similar between CAPD and APD with a day fill.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ultrafiltration failure and fluid overload are common in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Knowledge of intraperitoneal volume (IPV) and time to peak IPV during a dwell would permit improved PD prescription. This study aimed to utilize trunk segmental bioimpedance analysis (SBIA) to quasi-continuously monitor IPV (IPVSBIA) during the peritoneal dwell. METHODS IPVSBIA was measured every minute using lower-trunk SBIA (Hydra 4200; Xitron Technologies Inc., CA, USA) in 10 PD patients during a standard 240-min peritoneal equilibration test (PET). The known dialysate volume (2 L) rendered IPVSBIA calibration and calculation of instantaneous ultrafiltration volume (UFVSBIA) possible. UFVSBIA was defined as IPVSBIA - 2 L. RESULTS Based on dialysate-to-plasma creatinine ratio, 2 patients were high, 7 high-average, and 1 low-average transporters. Technically sound IPVSBIA measurements were obtained in 9 patients (age 59.0 ± 8.8 years, 7 females, 5 African Americans). Drained ultrafiltration volume (UFVdrain) was 0.47 ± 0.21 L and correlated (r = 0.74; p < 0.05) with end-dwell UFVSBIA (0.55 ± 0.17 L). Peak UFVSBIA was 1.04 ± 0.32 L, it was reached 177 ± 61 min into the dwell and exceeded end-dwell UFVSBIA by 0.49 ± 0.28 L (95% CI: 0.27-0.7) and UFVdrain by 0.52 ± 0.31 L (95% CI: 0.29-0.76), respectively. CONCLUSION This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of trunk segmental bioimpedance to quasi-continuously monitor IPVSBIA and identify the time to peak UFVSBIA during a standard PET. Such new insights into the dynamics of intraperitoneal fluid volume during the dwell may advance our understanding of the underlying transport physiology and eventually assist in improving PD treatment prescriptions.

Lower Phase Angle Measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis Is a Marker for Increased Mortality in Incident Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis Patients. J Ren Nutr 2019; 30:119-125. [PMID: 31420236 DOI: 10.1053/j.jrn.2019.06.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2019] [Revised: 05/11/2019] [Accepted: 06/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Phase angle (PA) determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis has been suggested to be a predictor of death in a variety of disease conditions, but its associations with outcomes have not yet been assessed in a large continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patient cohort. The aim of the present study was to examine the association of PA with risks for all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients treated with CAPD. METHODS Incident CAPD patients were enrolled from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2015 and were followed until December 31, 2017. Multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis was conducted in the morning with patients in a fasting state. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to study the relationships between PA and other variables. Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the association between PA and mortality. RESULTS A total of 760 incident CAPD patients were enrolled in this study. Patients have a median PA value of 4.59° ranging from 2.30° to 7.22°. Aging, presence of diabetes mellitus, and fluid overload were independently associated with lower PA, whereas male sex, higher body mass index, higher serum levels of albumin and creatinine, and better residual renal function were independently associated with higher PA in a multivariable linear regression model. A total of 125 (16.4%) patients died during a median follow-up of 42 months. In the Cox model with adjustment for confounders, PA was significantly associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in incident CAPD patients (hazard ratio, 0.584; 95% confidence interval, 0.403 to 0.844, P = .004; hazard ratio, 0.597; 95% confidence interval, 0.359 to 0.993, P = .047, respectively). CONCLUSIONS PA reflected a combined dimension of the illness including deranged hydration status and nutritional status. Lower PA was associated with both all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients with CAPD.

Abstract
Background Prospective studies combining physical functioning (PF), physical activity (PA), and body composition (BC) after living donor transplantation/donation are scarce. We aimed to study differences in these parameters between kidney transplant recipients and their living donors by examining changes in these parameters in the first post-operative year in both groups. Methods Twenty-two kidney transplant recipients and 22 healthy kidney donors were included in this prospective longitudinal study with a follow-up until twelve months. PF was assessed by handgrip strength (HGS), and by the physical domains of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) using the Short Form-36 questionnaire [PF (SF-36 PF) and physical component summary (PCS) score]. BC was measured by the Body Composition Monitor©, and PA was measured by the SenseWear™ pro3. Results At baseline, recipients had significantly lower HGS (after adjustment for sex and body weight), SF-36 PF, PCS, and PA, as compared with their donors. In recipients HGS significantly increased in the first year after transplantation, but PA did not change in the first six months after transplantation. Furthermore, no significant increase in lean tissue mass was observed. For healthy donors no significant changes in these parameters were observed, with exception of SF-36 PF, which declined in the first three months after donation, but equaled baseline values after twelve months. Conclusion Recipients showed impressive improvements in PF and the physical domains of HRQOL in the first year after transplantation, reaching levels of healthy kidney donors already three to six months after transplantation. On the contrary, living kidney donation did not show any deterioration of the investigated parameters, supporting little impact for well-screened donors, while there is high benefit for transplant recipients.

Abstract
Approximately 7%-10% of patients with ESKD worldwide undergo peritoneal dialysis (PD) as kidney replacement therapy. The continuous nature of this dialytic modality and the absence of acute shifts in pressure and volume parameters is an important differentiation between PD and in-center hemodialysis. However, the burden of hypertension and prognostic association of BP with mortality follow comparable patterns in both modalities. Although management of hypertension uses similar therapeutic principles, long-term preservation of residual diuresis and longevity of peritoneal membrane function require particular attention in the prescription of the appropriate dialysis regimen among those on PD. Dietary sodium restriction, appropriate use of icodextrin, and limited exposure of peritoneal membrane to bioincompatible solutions, as well as adaptation of the PD regimen to the peritoneal transport characteristics, are first-line therapeutic strategies to achieve adequate volume control with a potential long-term benefit on technique survival. Antihypertensive drug therapy is a second-line therapeutic approach, used when BP remains unresponsive to the above volume management strategies. In this article, we review the available evidence on epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension among patients on PD and discuss similarities and differences between PD and in-center hemodialysis. We conclude with a call for randomized trials aiming to elucidate several areas of uncertainty in management of hypertension in the PD population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has emerged as a mechanistically relevant therapeutic option for patients with heart failure (HF), volume overload, and varying degrees of renal dysfunction (i.e., chronic cardiorenal syndrome). Congestion has been identified as a potent ominous prognostic factor in this patient population, outperforming a number of established risk factors. As such, excess fluid removal is recognized as a relevant therapeutic target in this setting. METHODS Accumulating evidence points to the importance of sodium removal as part of any decongestive strategy because extraction of sodium-free water has little or no impact on the outcomes of these patients. Hence, optimization of sodium removal by PD should be the primary focus in the setting of HF and cardiorenal syndrome, especially if PD is started when the patient still has adequate residual renal function for clearance of waste products. RESULTS Herein, we provide an overview of approaches that can tailor PD treatment to the patients' characteristics and clinical needs (e.g., choice of PD modality) to fully exploit its decongestive properties. Other methods that could prove helpful in the future will also be briefly discussed. CONCLUSION While these strategies could help with efficient sodium extraction and volume optimization, future studies are needed to evaluate their impact on the outcomes of this specific patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid overload is a major risk factor for mortality in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). However, few studies have investigated the effect of chronic exposure to sustained fluid overload on long-term outcomes. METHOD A total of 284 prevalent PD patients were included in this prospective study. Repeated multifrequency body composition analysis was performed 12 months apart, and 1-year cumulative chronic fluid overload were used to predict all-cause mortality and the risk for transfer to hemodialysis (HD) during the ensuing 15.6 ± 9.1 months. RESULTS The prevalence of fluid overload was approximately 27%. Interestingly, a substantial number of hypervolemic patients at first test were persistently hypervolemic at their second test. With this, chronic fluid overload was observed in 18.3% (n = 52). Notably, most of chronic fluid overload patients had diabetes (86.5%), and it was accompanied by concomitant changes in peritoneal membrane characteristics, a higher progression rate to high transporter. The risk of transfer to HD increased 2.8 times in patients with chronic fluid overload than in those without. Also, it significantly increased the risk of mortality (p = 0.038). Surprisingly, subgroup analysis found that patients with euvolemic status at follow-up experienced no mortality despite being in a fluid overload state at baseline. CONCLUSIONS One-year chronic exposure to fluid overload is a strong independent risk factor for transfer to HD and death in prevalent PD patients. Although the fluid status of most PD patients is not easily changed over time, becoming euvolemic during the entire PD treatment period seems to be very important.

Abstract
Congestion is an integral component of cardiorenal syndrome and portends an adverse impact on the outcomes. Recent studies suggest that congestion has the ability of modulating the interactions between the kidney and the heart in this setting. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a home-based therapeutic modality that is not only offered to patients with end-stage renal disease to provide solute clearance and ultrafiltration, but it has also been used in patients with refractory heart failure and fluid overload to help optimize volume status. Several uncontrolled studies and case series have so far evaluated the role of PD in management of hypervolemia for patients with heart failure. They have generally reported favorable results in this setting. However, the data on the outcomes of patients with end-stage renal disease and concomitant heart failure is mixed, and the proposed theoretical advantages of PD might not translate into improved clinical endpoints. Congestion is prevalent in this patient population and has a significant effect on their survival. As studies suggest that a significant subset of patients with end-stage renal disease who receive PD therapy are hypervolemic, suboptimal management of congestion could at least in part explain these conflicting results. PD is a highly flexible therapeutic modality and the choice of techniques, regimens, and solutions can affect its ability for optimization of fluid status. This article provides an overview of the currently available data on the role and clinical relevance of congestion in patients with cardiorenal syndrome and reviews potential options to enhance decongestion in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Physical inactivity in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients is associated with increased mortality, and might be related to abnormalities in body composition (BC) and physical performance. It is uncertain to what extent starting dialysis influences the effects of ESRD on physical activity (PA). This study aimed to compare PA and physical performance between stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD-5) non-dialysis and dialysis patients, and healthy controls, to assess alterations in PA during the transition from CKD-5 non-dialysis to dialysis, and to relate PA to BC. METHODS For the cross-sectional analyses 44 CKD-5 non-dialysis patients, 29 dialysis patients, and 20 healthy controls were included. PA was measured by the SenseWear™ pro3. Also, the walking speed and handgrip strength (HGS) were measured. BC was measured by the Body Composition Monitor©. Longitudinally, these parameters were assessed in 42 CKD-5 non-dialysis patients (who were also part of the cross-sectional analysis), before the start of dialysis and 6 months thereafter. RESULTS PA was significantly lower in CKD-5 non-dialysis patients as compared to that in healthy controls but not as compared to that in dialysis patients. HGS was significantly lower in dialysis patients as compared to that in healthy controls. Walking speed was significantly lower in CKD-5 non-dialysis patients as compared to that in healthy controls but not as compared to that in dialysis patients. Six months after starting dialysis, activity related energy expenditure (AEE) and walking speed significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS PA is already lower in CKD-5 non-dialysis patients as compared to that in healthy controls and does not differ from that of dialysis patients. However, the transition phase from CKD-5 non-dialysis to dialysis is associated only with a modest improvement in AEE.

Abstract
PURPOSE In peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, body fluid homeostasis is dependent on peritoneal elimination of water and solutes. Patients with less favorable peritoneal transport parameters should be more overhydrated. Despite this, the association between faster transport and overhydration (OH) is weak, and the factors that influence hydration status are still poorly characterized. Modified peritoneal equilibration tests (PET) offer us new parameters that might correlate better with hydration status, like free water transport (FWT). The aim of this study was thus to establish the relationships between new peritoneal transport parameters and body composition parameters estimated by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS). METHODS Prospective observational study on incident PD patients with a baseline and 1-year follow-up evaluation. RESULTS 61 patients were included in the baseline evaluation, 19 of whom had a 1-year follow-up evaluation; 67.2% were fluid overloaded. There was a negative correlation between D/P creatinine and FWT (r = -0.598, p = 0.000). The fraction of FWT was negatively correlated with OH (r = -0.302, p = 0.018). Peritoneal protein losses (PPL) were also correlated with OH (r = 0.287, p = 0.028). There were no significant differences in OH according to small-solute transport status or fluid output parameters. After 1 year, we observed a significant worsening of renal function and an improvement in 24-hour ultrafiltration (UF) and hydration status, but we detected no differences in peritoneal transport of water or solutes that could explain these changes. CONCLUSIONS There is a poor relationship between kidney/peritoneal function parameters and body composition parameters. The fraction of FWT and PPL may be underestimated markers of peritoneal health and of its contribution to the hydration status.

Abstract
UNLABELLED ♦ BACKGROUND Fluid overload is frequently present in dialysis patients and one of the important predictors of patient outcome. This study aimed to investigate the influence of fluid overload on all-cause mortality and technique failure in Southern Chinese continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. ♦ METHODS This was a post hoc study from a cross-sectional survey originally designed to investigate the prevalence and associated risk factors of fluid overload defined by bioimpedance analysis (BIA) in CAPD patients from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2009. All 307 CAPD patients completing the original study were followed up until December 31, 2012. ♦ RESULTS With a median follow-up period of 38.4 (19.2 - 47.9) months, 52 patients died. Patients with fluid overload (defined by extracellular water/total body water [ECW/TBW] ≥ 0.40) had a significantly higher peritonitis rate (0.016 vs 0.011 events/month exposure, p = 0.018) and cerebrovascular event rate (3.9 vs 1.1 events/100 patient years, p = 0.024) than the normal hydrated patients. Moreover, the results showed a significant rising of all-cause mortality (log-rank test = 5.59, p = 0.018), and a trend of increasing cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality (log-rank test = 2.90, p = 0.089) and technique failure (log-rank test = 3.78, p = 0.052) in the patients with fluid overload. Fluid overload independently predicted all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 12.98, 95%, confidence interval [CI] = 1.06 - 168.23, p = 0.042) and technique failure (HR = 13.56, 95% CI = 2.53 - 78.69, p = 0.007) in CAPD patients after adjustment for confounders. ♦ CONCLUSIONS Fluid overload defined by BIA was an independent predictor for all-cause mortality and technique failure in CAPD patients. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients with fluid overload had a higher peritonitis rate, cardiovascular event rate, and poorer clinical outcome than those patients with normal hydration.

Abstract
Background Non-euvolaemia in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is associated with elevated mortality risk. There is an urgent need to collect data to help us understand the association between clinical practices and hydration and nutritional status, and their effects on patient outcome. Methods The aim of this prospective international, longitudinal observational cohort study is to follow up the hydration and nutritional status, as measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy using the body composition monitor (BCM) of incident PD patients for up to 5 years. Measures of hydration and nutritional status and of clinical, biochemical and therapy-related data are collected directly before start of PD treatment, at 1 and 3 months, and then every 3 months. This paper presents the protocol and a pre-specified analysis of baseline data of the cohort. Results A total of 1092 patients (58.1% male, 58.0 ± 15.3 years) from 135 centres in 32 countries were included. Median fluid overload (FO) was 2.0 L (males) and 0.9 L (females). Less than half of the patients were normohydrated (38.7%), whereas FO > 1.1 L was seen in 56.5%. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were 139.5 ± 21.8 and 80.0 ± 12.8 mmHg, respectively, and 25.1% of patients had congestive heart failure [New York Heart Association (NYHA) 1 or higher]. A substantial number of patients judged to be not overhydrated on clinical judgement appeared to be overhydrated by BCM measurement. Overhydration at baseline was independently associated with male gender and diabetic status. Conclusions The majority of patients starting on PD are overhydrated already at start of PD. This may have important consequences on clinical outcomes and preservation of residual renal function. Substantial reclassification of hydration status by BCM versus on a clinical basis was necessary, especially in patients who were not overtly overhydrated. Both clinical appreciation and bioimpedance should be combined in clinical decision-making on hydration status.

Body composition in dialysis patients: a functional assessment of bioimpedance using different prediction models. J Ren Nutr 2014; 25:121-8. [PMID: 25443694 DOI: 10.1053/j.jrn.2014.08.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2014] [Revised: 08/21/2014] [Accepted: 08/25/2014] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The assessment of body composition (BC) in dialysis patients is of clinical importance given its role in the diagnosis of malnutrition and sarcopenia. Bioimpedance techniques routinely express BC as a 2-compartment (2-C) model distinguishing fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM), which may be influenced by the hydration of adipose tissue and fluid overload (OH). Recently, the BC monitor was introduced which applies a 3-compartment (3-C) model, distinguishing OH, adipose tissue mass, and lean tissue mass. The aim of this study was to compare BC between the 2-C and 3-C models and assess their relation with markers of functional performance (handgrip strength [HGS] and 4-m walking test), as well as with biochemical markers of nutrition. METHODS Forty-seven dialysis patients (30 males and 17 females) (35 hemodialysis, 12 peritoneal dialysis) with a mean age of 64.8 ± 16.5 years were studied. 3-C BC was assessed by BC monitor, whereas the obtained resistivity values were used to calculate FM and FFM according to the Xitron Hydra 4200 formulas, which are based on a 2-C model. RESULTS FFM (3-C) was 0.99 kg (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.27 to 1.71, P = .008) higher than FFM (2-C). FM (3-C) was 2.43 kg (95% CI, 1.70-3.15, P < .001) lower than FM (2-C). OH was 1.4 ± 1.8 L. OH correlated significantly with ΔFFM (FFM 3-C - FFM 2-C) (r = 0.361; P < .05) and ΔFM (FM 3-C - FM 2-C) (r = 0.387; P = .009). HGS correlated significantly with FFM (2-C) (r = 0.713; P < .001), FFM (3-C) (r = 0.711; P < .001), body cell mass (2-C) (r = 0.733; P < .001), and body cell mass (3-C) (r = 0.767; P < .001). Both physical activity (r = 0.456; P = .004) and HGS (r = 0.488; P = .002), but not BC, were significantly related to walking speed. CONCLUSIONS Significant differences between 2-C and 3-C models were observed, which are partly explained by the presence of OH. OH, which was related to ΔFFM and ΔFM of the 2-C and 3-C models, is therefore an important parameter for the differences in estimation of BC parameters of the 2-C and 3-C models. Both FFM (3-C) and FFM (2-C) were significantly related to HGS. Bioimpedance, HGS, and the 4-m walking test may all be valuable tools in the multidimensional nutritional assessment of both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remaining edema-free is a challenge for many automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) patients, especially those with fast ("high") transport characteristics. Although increased use of peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions with high glucose concentrations may improve volume control, frequent use of such solutions is undesirable. METHODS We used the 3-pore kinetic model to evaluate 4 alternative therapy prescriptions for the APD day exchange in anuric patients with high, high-average, and low-average transport characteristics. Four prescriptions were modeled: Therapy 1: Optimal, individualized dwell times with a dry period. Therapy 2: Use of a midday exchange. Therapy 3: Use of an icodextrin-containing dialysate during a 14-hour dwell. Therapy 4: Use of optimal, individualized dwell times, followed by an icodextrin dwell to complete the daytime period. The alternative therapies were compared with a reference standard therapy using glucose solution during a 14-hour dwell. The nighttime prescription was identical in all cases (10 L over 10 hours), and all glucose solutions contained 2.27% glucose. Net ultrafiltration (UF), sodium removal (NaR), total carbohydrate (CHO) absorption, and weekly urea Kt/V for a 24-hour period were computed and compared. RESULTS The UF and NaR were substantially higher with therapy 1 than with standard therapy (1034 mL vs 621 mL and 96 mmol vs 51 mmol respectively), without significant changes in CHO absorption or urea Kt/V. However, therapy 1 resulted in reduced β2-microglobulin clearance (0.74 mL/min vs 0.89 mL/min with standard therapy). Compared with therapy 1, therapy 2 improved UF and NaR (1062 mL vs 1034 mL and 99 mmol vs 96 mmol); however, that improvement is likely not clinically significant. Therapy 2 also resulted in a higher Kt/V (2.07 vs 1.72), but at the expense of higher glucose absorption (difference: 42 g). The UF and NaR were highest with a long icodextrin-containing daytime dwell either preceded by a short optimized dwell (1426 mL and 155 mmol) or without such a dwell (1327 mL and 148 mmol). CONCLUSIONS The 3-pore model predictions revealed that patient-specific optimal dwell times and regimens with a longer day dwell might provide improved UF and NaR options in APD patients with a variety of peritoneal membrane transport characteristics. In patients without access to icodextrin, therapy 1 might enhance UF and NaR and provide a short-term option to increase fluid removal. Although that approach may offer clinicians a therapeutic option for the overhydrated patient who requires increased UF in the short term, APD prescriptions including icodextrin provide a means to augment sodium and fluid removal. Data from clinical trials are needed to confirm the predictions from this study.

Abstract
UNLABELLED ♦ BACKGROUND In recent years, results from clinical studies have changed the focus of peritoneal dialysis (PD) adequacy from small solute clearance to volume control, resulting in continued efforts to improve fluid and sodium removal in PD patients. We used a modified 3-pore model to theoretically predict fluid and solute removal using glucose-based and icodextrin solutions for a wide range of transport characteristics with automated PD (APD) and continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) therapies. ♦ METHODS Simulations were performed for the day (APD: 15-hr, 2.27% glucose and 7.5% icodextrin; CAPD: 3x5-hr, 1.36% and 2.27% glucose) and night (APD: 9-hr, 1.36% glucose; CAPD: 9-hr, 2.27% glucose and 7.5% icodextrin) dialysis periods separately. During APD, the number of night exchanges (N) was varied from 3 to 7. Ultrafiltration (UF), sodium removal (NaR), total carbohydrate absorption (CHO), UF efficiency (UFE), and sodium removal efficiency (NaRE) were calculated. Typical patients in fast (i.e. high, H), average (high-average, HA; low-average, LA), and slow (low, L) transport groups with no residual kidney function were considered. ♦ RESULTS The effective dwell times varied between 1.0 and 14.7 hours depending on the number of exchanges. With glucose-based solutions, differences in UF and NaR between H and L transport patients ranged from 140 mL and 2 mmol (APD night, n = 7) to 778 mL and 56.4 mmol (CAPD day, 2.27%). With icodextrin, differences in UF and NaR ranged from 1 mL and 1.1 mmol (CAPD night) to 59 mL and 6.1 mmol (APD day). The use of icodextrin resulted in greater CHO than 2.27% glucose (APD: 27.1 - 35.6 g more; CAPD: 17.1 - 17.5 g more). The UFE and NaRE were greater for all patients with icodextrin than with glucose-based solution in both therapy modalities, except for slow transport patients in CAPD. ♦ CONCLUSION This modeling study shows that the dependence of UF and NaR on patient transport type observed with glucose-based solutions can be minimized using icodextrin during the long dwells of APD and CAPD. While this approach simplifies the PD prescription by minimizing the dependencies of ultrafiltration and sodium removal on patient transport type when using icodextrin, it improves fluid and sodium removal efficiencies in fast and average transport patients without any added glucose exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volume status, lean and fat tissue are gaining interest as prognostic predictors in patients on dialysis. Comparative data in peritoneal dialysis (PD) versus haemodialysis (HD) patients are lacking. METHODS In a cohort of PD (EuroBCM) and HD (Euclid database) patients, matched for country, gender, age and dialysis vintage, body composition was assessed by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BCM, Fresenius Medical Care). Time-averaged volume overload (TAVO) was defined as the mean of pre- and post-dialysis volume overload (VO), and relative (%) (TA)VO as (TA)VO/ECV. RESULTS Four hundred and ninety-one matched pairs (55.2% males, median age 60.0 years) were included. The body mass index (BMI, PD = 26.5 ± 4.7 versus HD = 25.9 ± 4.6 kg/m(2), P = 0.18 in males and 27.4 ± 5.8 versus 27.5 ± 6.6 kg/m(2), P = 0.75 in females) and fat tissue index (males: 11.5 ± 5.3 versus 11.4 ± 5.4 kg/m(2), P = 0.90, females: 14.8 ± 6.7 versus 15.4 ± 7.2 kg/m(2), P = 0.30) were not different in PD versus HD patients, whereas the lean tissue index (LTI) was higher in PD versus HD patients (males: 14.5 ± 3.4 versus 13.7 ± 3.1 kg/m(2), P = 0.001, females: 12.6 ± 3.3 versus 11.5 ± 2.6 kg/m(2), P < 0.0001). VO/extracellular water (ECW) was not different between PD versus just before the HD treatment (males: 10.8 ± 12.1 versus 9.2 ± 10.2%, P = 0.09; females: 6.5 ± 10.8 versus 7.7 ± 9.4%, P = 0.19). The relative TAVO was higher in PD versus HD (10.8 ± 12.1% versus 3.2 ± 11.2%, and 6.5 ± 10.8% versus 1.2 ± 10.9%, both P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The LTI was impaired, and this was more in males versus females, but was better preserved on PD versus HD, whereas fat tissue index (FTI) was increased, but not different between PD and HD. Volume overload was more present in PD versus HD when TAVO, but not when predialysis volume status, was used as a reference.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is a valuable tool to assess nutrition and volume status in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, data about the influence of intraperitoneal fluid on body composition measures are conflicting, and there is no clear consensus about whether the abdomen should be drained before the procedure. We designed a comparison study to detect the influence of intra-abdominal fluid on BIS results. METHODS We performed 73 pairs of BIS measurements in 34 stable PD patients, first with the peritoneum filled with a 1.36% glucose dialysate solution and then after the solution was drained. Patients stayed in the supine position for 10 minutes before the BIS procedure, and the electrodes were not moved between measures. Clinical and demographic data were collected, as were analytic parameters of nutrition and volume status. RESULTS Fluid overload is overestimated when BIS is performed with a full abdomen (1.82 ± 1.73 L vs 1.64 ± 1.68 L, p = 0.043). We also found a spurious overestimation in extracellular water (16.40 ± 3.21 L vs 16.24 ± 3.16 L, p < 0.001) and in relative overhydration (8.29% ± 6.96% vs 7.14% ± 6.79%, p = 0.017). No differences in intracellular water or parameters of nutrition were found. We observed negative correlations for the extracellular water overestimation with age (r = -0.245, p = 0.037), serum B-type natriuretic peptide (r = -0.366, p = 0.036), body mass index (r = -0.248, p = 0.035), and lean tissue index (r = -0.427, p = 0.001). The difference in extracellular water correlated only with body mass index (r = -0.259, p = 0.039). We also found that, assessed at 50 KHz, whole-body impedance (-4.52 ± 8.37, p = 0.001) and phase angle (-0.08 ± 0.23 degrees, p = 0.002) were both lower when BIS was performed in patients with a full abdomen. CONCLUSIONS Fluid overload is overestimated by BIS when performed in patients with dialysate in the peritoneum. The observed differences are greater in younger, more poorly nourished, or less overhydrated patients. If more precise results are required, we suggest that the abdomen be drained before BIS is performed.

Abstract
Automated methods for delivering peritoneal dialysis (PD) to persons with end-stage renal disease continue to gain popularity worldwide, particularly in developed countries. However, the endeavor to automate the PD process has not been advanced on the strength of high-level evidence for superiority of automated over manual methods. This article summarizes available studies that have shed light on the evidence that compares the association of treatment with continuous ambulatory PD or automated PD (APD) with clinically meaningful outcomes. Published evidence, primarily from observational studies, has been unable to demonstrate a consistent difference in residual kidney function loss rate, peritonitis rate, maintenance of euvolemia, technique survival, mortality, or health-related quality of life in individuals undergoing continuous ambulatory PD versus APD. At the same time, the future of APD technology appears ripe for further improvement, such as the incorporation of voice commands and expanded use of telemedicine. Given these considerations, it appears that patient choice should drive the decision about PD modality.

Abstract
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) has been considered as a more efficient modality for sodium removal than automated peritoneal dialysis (APD), due to the longer dwell times and the sodium sieving phenomenon. However, because studies regarding sodium removal in peritoneal dialysis (PD) report rather controversial results and carry various methodological flaws, it remains uncertain whether they offer enough significant information regarding PD prescription and therapy. The aim of the present observational cross-sectional study was to evaluate the impact of the optimal prescription of CAPD and APD, regarding solute clearances and daily ultrafiltrate, on daily sodium removal. Forty-six (46) patients aged 52.3 ± 14 years were studied. Twenty-six (26) patients were subjected to CAPD, and 20 patients were subjected to APD. Ten (10) patients per group were prescribed icodextrin for the long dwell to achieve optimal adequacy and ultrafiltration (UF) targets. CAPD patients removed a higher, albeit not statistically significant, daily amount of sodium (131.7 ± 98.2 mmol) compared with APD patients (79.4 ± 129.2 mmol). Their Kt/V urea was lower (1.48 ± 0.3 vs. 2.17 ± 0.33, P < 0.05), and there were no differences on daily UF (1119 ± 533 vs. 1005 ± 517 mL). In both groups, icodextrin use for the long dwell resulted in equal sodium removal with that of patients not prescribed icodextrin. Our results, derived from an unselected PD population, indicate that although classic CAPD may be more efficient for sodium removal than APD, the use of icodextrin as an adjuvant for higher daily UF not only increases solute clearance but also removes more sodium for both modalities. In addition, calculations of sodium removal in PD do not seem to benefit the everyday clinical practice, provided that PD patients can achieve the adequacy targets and present optimal daily UF without signs of volume overload.

Abstract
Background Fluid overload is frequently present in CAPD patients and one of important predictors of mortality. The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence and associated risk factors in a cohort study of Southern Chinese CAPD patients. Methods The patients (receiving CAPD 3 months and more) in our center were investigated from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2009. Multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to assess the patient’s body composition and fluid status. Results A total of 307 CAPD patients (43% male, mean age 47.8±15.3 years) were enrolled, with a median duration of PD 14.6 (5.9–30.9) months. Fluid overload (defined by Extracellular water/Total body water (ECW/TBW)≥0.40) was present in 205 (66.8%) patients. Univariate analysis indicated that ECW/TBW were inversely associated with body mass index (r = −0.11, P = 0.047), subjective global assessment score (r = −0.11, P = 0.004), body fat mass (r = −0.15, P = 0.05), serum albumin (r = −0.32, P<0.001), creatinine (r = −0.14, P = 0.02), potassium (r = −0.15, P = 0.02), and residual urine output (r = −0.14, P = 0.01), positively associated with age (r = 0.27, P<0.001), Chalrlson Comorbidity Index score (r = 0.29, P<0.001), and systolic blood pressure (r = 0.22, P<0.001). Multivariate linear regression showed that lower serum albumin (β = −0.223, P<0.001), lower body fat mass (β = −0.166, P = 0.033), old age (β = 0.268, P<0.001), higher systolic blood pressure (β = 0.16, P = 0.006), less residual urine output (β = −0.116, P = 0.042), and lower serum potassium (β = −0.126, P = 0.03) were independently associated with higher ECW/TBW. After 1 year of follow-up, the cardiac event rate was significantly higher in the patients with fluid overload (17.1% vs 6.9%, P = 0.023) than that of the normal hydrated patients. Conclusions The prevalence of fluid overload was high in CAPD patients. Fluid overload in CAPD patients were independently associated with protein-energy wasting, old age, and decreased residual urine output. Furthermore, CAPD patients with fluid overload had higher cardiac event rate than that of normal hydrated patents.

Abstract
PURPOSE AND METHODS The accurate estimation of volume status is a central problem in dialysis patients. Recently, a bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) device (BCM Body Composition Monitor FMC, Germany) has attained growing interest in this regard. By processing the raw data for extracellular water (ECW) and intracellular water (ICW) by means of a validated body composition model, this device allows a quantification of the individual fluid overload (FO) compared to a representative healthy population. In this study, we addressed the issue whether the presence of peritoneal dialysate has an impact on measurements of FO by BIS in PD patients. RESULTS Forty-two BIS measurements using the BCM device were performed both in the absence (D-) and presence (D+) of peritoneal dialysate in 17 stable PD patients. Data for ECW, ICW and FO (D+; D-) were analyzed by paired t test and linear regression. Mean FO was 0.99 ± 1.17 L in D- and 0.94 ± 1.27 in D+ (p = n.s. paired t test). Linear regression demonstrated an excellent degree of conformity between FO (D-) and FO (D+) (r (2) = 0.93). CONCLUSION The presence of peritoneal fluid in PD patients has a negligible influence on measurements of FO by BIS. The BIS measurements can be therefore conveniently and reliably done without emptying the peritoneal cavity; this may facilitate the use of BIS in this particular group of patients.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare fluid state, ambulatory blood pressure, and sodium removal in automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). This observational, cross-sectional study comprised 20 APD and 24 CAPD patients with a mean duration on peritoneal dialysis of 30 ± 26 and 21 ± 23 months, respectively. Sixty-four percent of the patients were treated with icodextrin. The methods used were 24 hr dialysate and urine collections, standardized 3.86% glucose peritoneal equilibration test (PET), bioimpedance analysis, and 24 hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Extracellular water (ECW) corrected for body weight was 0.23 6 0.03 L/kg both in APD and CAPD patients. The slope normovolemia value according to Chamney was 0.0 6 0.2 L/kg in APD patients and 0.0 6 0.05 L/kg in CAPD patients (not significant [NS]). Mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were respectively, 132 ± 25 and 79 ± 8 mm Hg in APD and 129 ± 16 and 76 ± 11 mm Hg in CAPD patients (NS). Sodium concentration in dialysate was respectively, 129.5 ± 3.5 mmol/L in APD and 132.4 ± 4.1 mmol/L in CAPD (p= 0.017). Dialysate sodium removal was 80.6 ± 78.4 mmol/24 hr in APD and 108.7 ± 96.8 mmol/24 hr in CAPD patients (NS). Natriuresis was respectively, in APD 76.6 ± 65.5 mmol/24 hr and in CAPD 93.5 ± 61.7 mmol/24 hr (NS). Total sodium removal was 149.5 ± 76.6 mmol/24 hr in APD and 198.4 ± 75.0 mmol/24 hr in CAPD (p= .039). Despite a higher daily sodium removal in CAPD patients, fluid state and blood pressure were not different between APD and CAPD. In general, volume status and blood pressure appeared to be reasonably controlled in this unselected population.

Abstract
Background and Objective Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) is being increasingly used as an alternative to continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). However, there has been concern regarding reduced sodium removal leading to hypertension and resulting in a faster decline in residual renal function (RRF). The objective of the present study was to compare patient and technique survival and other relevant parameters between patients treated with APD and patients treated with CAPD. Methods Data for incident patients were retrieved from the database of the Renal Research Institute, New York. Treatment modality was defined 90 days after the start of dialysis treatment. In addition to technique and patient survival, RRF, blood pressure, and laboratory parameters were also compared. Results 179 CAPD and 441 APD patients were studied. Mean as-treated survival was 1407 days [95% confidence interval (CI) 1211 - 1601] in CAPD patients and 1616 days (95% CI 1478 - 1764) in APD patients. Adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for mortality was 1.31 in CAPD compared to APD (95% CI 0.76 - 2.25, p = NS). Unadjusted as-treated technique survival was lower in CAPD compared to APD, with HR 2.84 (95% CI 1.65 - 4.88, p = 0.002); adjusted HR was 1.81 (95% CI 0.94 - 3.57, p = 0.08). Peritonitis rate was 0.3 episodes/ patient-year for CAPD and APD; exit-site/tunnel infection rate was 0.1 and 0.3 episodes/patient-year for CAPD and APD respectively (p = NS). Conclusions Patient survival was not significantly different between APD and CAPD patients, whereas technique survival appeared to be higher in APD patients and could not be explained by differences in infectious complications. No difference in blood pressure control or decline in RRF was observed between the 2 modalities. Based on these results, APD appears to be an acceptable alternative to CAPD, although technique prescription should always follow individual judgment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Euvolemia is an important adequacy parameter in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, accurate tools to evaluate volume status in clinical practice and data on volume status in PD patients as compared to healthy population, and the associated factors, have not been available so far. METHODS We used a bio-impedance spectroscopy device, the Body Composition Monitor (BCM) to assess volume status in a cross-sectional cohort of prevalent PD patients in different European countries. The results were compared to an age and gender matched healthy population. RESULTS Only 40% out of 639 patients from 28 centres in 6 countries were normovolemic. Severe fluid overload was present in 25.2%. There was a wide scatter in the relation between blood pressure and volume status. In a multivariate analysis in the subgroup of patients from countries with unrestricted availability of all PD modalities and fluid types, older age, male gender, lower serum albumin, lower BMI, diabetes, higher systolic blood pressure, and use of at least one exchange per day with the highest hypertonic glucose were associated with higher relative tissue hydration. Neither urinary output nor ultrafiltration, PD fluid type or PD modality were retained in the model (total R² of the model = 0.57). CONCLUSIONS The EuroBCM study demonstrates some interesting issues regarding volume status in PD. As in HD patients, hypervolemia is a frequent condition in PD patients and blood pressure can be a misleading clinical tool to evaluate volume status. To monitor fluid balance, not only fluid output but also dietary input should be considered. Close monitoring of volume status, a correct dialysis prescription adapted to the needs of the patient and dietary measures seem to be warranted to avoid hypervolemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients treated by peritoneal dialysis, especially those using automatic cyclers, are frequently found to be hypervolemic. To determine whether there are significant differences between the currently available modalities of peritoneal dialysis, we analyzed whether differences in transporter status and treatment modality had a discernible effect on extracellular fluid volumes as measured by multi-frequency bioimpedance. METHODS Two hundred prevalent peritoneal dialysis patients, 48% male, mean age 54.9 yr (SD+/-15.6), were studied using multi-frequency bioimpedance following a standard peritoneal equilibration test; 63 patients were treated by CAPD, 29 by APD, 96 by CCPD and 12 by OCCPD. RESULTS There were no differences in extracellular volumes, or extracellular volume adjusted for height, or as a ratio to total body water between the groups. As expected, extracellular volume adjusted for height depended upon bodyweight (r=0.412, p<0.001), sex (r=0.457, p<0.001) and systolic blood pressure (r=0.162, p=0.023), and extracellular volume to total body water related to the reciprocal of total daily peritoneal ultrafiltration losses (r=-0.0254, p=0.003) and urine output (-0.254, p=0.003). More importantly, on logistical regression analysis the ratio of extracellular fluid to total body fluid increased with falling albumin, F=21.5 p<0.001, increasing age, F=18.5 p<0.001, urine output F=6.46, p=0.014, total daily ultrafiltration, F=3.52 and protein intake p=0.003. Extracellular fluid adjusted for total body fluid was associated with CRP (males F=6.03, p=0.03, females F=4.438, p=0.04). CONCLUSION Patients were more likely to have an expanded extracellular fluid volume if they had reduced daily fluid losses, but also with biomarkers typically associated with poor nutrition and inflammation.
