Condition: Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) · Kidney Failure · Sponsor: The University of Queensland
Kidney failure is fatal without dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) completed at home offers greater flexibility and autonomy for patients . However, PD is often prescribed for 24 hours/day, 7 days/week for every patient starting dialysis. This practice is not evidence-informed, may be unnecessary and potentially harmful. The STEP-PD trial aims to determine the optimal approach to commencing patients on PD through starting at low dose PD and incrementing over time.
