Of all complications from central venous catheters (CVC) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) is one of the most devastating consequences. The option of catheter salvage is not an effective measure with metastatic infections. However, in patients with severe vasculopathy and/or near end-stage vascular disease, preservation of the venous access should be given utmost importance as the luxury of utilizing another vascular site is markedly limited. Providing adequate renal replacement therapy in this group of patients can be remarkably challenging for nephrologists...

BACKGROUND: There is paucity of comparative data on the objective performance of arteriovenous fistulas (AVF), grafts (AVG), hemodialysis (HD) catheter and peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter in the pediatric population. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of all patients <21 years in the United States Renal Database System who had an AVF, AVG, HD catheter or PD catheter placed for dialysis access between 1/2007 and 12/2014 was performed. Multivariable cox regression was used to evaluate mortality, patency (primary, primary-assisted and secondary), maturation and catheter survival...

BACKGROUND: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease, with afflicted patients often progressing to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT). As the timelines to ESKD are predictable over decades, it follows that ADPKD patients should be optimized regarding kidney transplantation, home dialysis therapies, and vascular access. OBJECTIVES: To examine the association of kidney transplantation, dialysis modalities, and vascular access in ADPKD patients compared with a matched, non-ADPKD cohort...

REVIEW
Maurizio Gallieni, Antonino Giordano, Anna Ricchiuto, Davide Gobatti, Maurizio Cariati
ABSTRACTHemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) represent two complementary modalities of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage renal disease patients. Conversion between the two modalities is frequent and more likely to happen from PD to HD. Every year, 10% of PD patients convert to HD, suggesting the need for recommendations on how to proceed with the creation of a vascular access in these patients. Criteria for selecting patients who would likely fail PD, and therefore take advantage of a backup access, are undefined...

BACKGROUND: Acute pediatric dialysis is provided by a single center in New Zealand. Most acute dialysis in our center is performed in the under 5 age group. The advantage of using peritoneal dialysis (PD) in these children is the ability to perform continuous renal replacement therapy without always requiring an ICU setting, avoiding central venous access and promoting greater cardiovascular stability. The disadvantage of PD in the acute setting includes the requirement for immediate use and the potential for early leaks due to peritoneal disruption with resulting delayed use and restricted volumes...

BACKGROUND: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) are often regarded as equivalent choices of renal replacement therapy. However, little is known about the outcome of patients who failed PD and converted to long-term HD. METHODS: We reviewed 197 patients who received long-term HD after failed PD in a University hospital from 1994 to 2008 (the PD-first group) and 140 patients who received long-term HD as their initial therapy during that period (the primary-HD group)...
