Peritoneal Dialysis as an Option for Unplanned Dialysis Initiation in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease and Diabetes Mellitus

Aims: This study aimed to compare the short-term complications and long-term prognosis between urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD), and explore the safety and feasibility of PD in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with diabetes. Methods: This retrospective study enrolled ESRD patients with diabetes who required urgent-start dialysis at a single center from January 2011 to December 2014. Short-term (30-day) dialysis-related complications and patient survival trends were compared between patients receiving PD and HD. Results: Eighty patients were included in the study, including 50 (62.5%) who underwent PD. The incidence of dialysis-related complications and complications requiring reinsertion during the first 30 days was significantly lower in PD patients. Logistic regression identified urgent-start HD as an independent risk factor for dialysis-related complications compared with urgent-start PD. The patient survival rate was higher in the PD compared to that in the HD group. Conclusions: PD may be acceptable, safe, and feasible for urgent-start dialysis in ESRD patients with diabetes.
