What is Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Insertion Study about?

This study compared outcomes of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter insertion using either a paramedian or midline surgical approach. The study reviewed medical records of 349 Thai patients undergoing continuous ambulatory PD between 2008-2010. Patients who underwent paramedian insertion had significantly fewer early post-operative complications (7.78% vs 18.82%), longer PD catheter survival time (985.5 vs 698.1 days), and better overall patient survival (915.4 vs 700.6 days) compared to midline insertion.
