Popis: Despite theoretical advantages of CCPD, only 1 of 13 patients trained in this modality continue on CCPD in a 3 year review period. Average duration on CCPD was only 7 months. When compared with our CAPD population higher transplant rates, death rates, and dissatisfaction with the dialysis technique, but not higher peritonitis rates were reasons for terminating CCPD.
