Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Residual Kidney Function in Patients Undergoing Three or Four Exchanges CAPD

July 20, 2016 updated by: Aiwu Lin, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine
The purpose of this study was to explore the impacts of different continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) dosage (three 2-Liter exchanges CAPD vs. four 2-Liter exchanges CAPD) on residual kidney function, technique survival, patient survival, and peritonitis in incident Chinese peritoneal dialysis patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

  1. The primary end point for this study was changes in residual kidney function including GFR, daily urine volume (Uvol), and anuria-free survival. GFR and Uvol were evaluated within 1 week before CAPD initiation (the baseline), and then at month 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24. At the same time, body weight, blood pressure, daily net ultrafiltration, dialysis adequacy, peritoneal solute transport rate, and biochemical parameters etc. were assessed. Once an episode of peritonitis or other serious reversible intercurrent illness occurred, all the assessments were delayed one month after being cured. Anuria was termed by daily Uvol permanently less than 100 ml.
  2. The secondary end points included technique survival, patient survival and peritonitis. Technique failure was defined as switching to maintenance hemodialysis.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Residual kidney function including glomerular filtration rate (GFR), daily urine voume (Uvol), and anuria-free survival.
Time Frame: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation
GFR was calculated by the mean of renal clearance of urea and creatinine from a 24-h urine collection. Anuria was termed as consistently Uvol < 100 ml/day for more than a month.
Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Number of participants having technique failure refering to switching to maintenance hemodialyisis
Time Frame: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation.
Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation.
Number of participants died
Time Frame: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation
Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation
Episodes of peritonitis
Time Frame: Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation
Up to 24 months after CAPD initiation
