The Burden of Peripheral Artery Occlusion Disease and Associated Factors in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

November 30, 2007 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital
The investigators want to evaluate the burden of peripheral artery occlusion disease in Taiwan peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients by using ankle-brachial pressure index (ABI) and toe-brachial pressure index (TBI). Furthermore, the investigators hope to demonstrate the possible casual factors of peripheral artery occlusion disease (PAOD) in PD patients.
