Risk Assessment of Peritoneal Dialysis Failure Based on Catheter Tip Location.

Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia Ignacio Chavez30 enrolled

Overview

The location of the catheter tip in radiographic planes 1 and 2, is a protection factor for the mechanical performance of peritoneal Dialysis. Instead radiographic planes 3 and 4 are risk factors.

Radiolucency of the peritoneal dialysis catheter, allow to classify the location of the tip into 4 radiographic planes. Plane 1: below the zone of a line on the head of the femur. Plane 2: is the area above the plane 1 and below a line connecting the two iliac spines. Plane 3: is the area that is above the plane 2 and below a line connecting the upper edge of the two iliac crests. Plane 4: is the area located above the plane 3.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

MECHANICAL OPERATION OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER

MEASURE THE TIME THAT RETURNING IN 1 LITER OF SOLUTION AFTER INFUSION PERITONEAL. TAKE IT AS FLUID RETURN FAILURE WHEN A DELAY SAME OR GREATER THAN 20 MINUTES.

Time frame: TWELVE HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT

Secondary Outcomes

LOCATION OF THE TIP OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER THROUGH STANDING ABDOMINAL RADIOGRAPHY

RADIOGRAPIC PLANS ARE CLASSIFIED IN 4 LEVEL: 1) BELOW THE "HEADS OF THE FEMUR", 2) BELOW " ILIAC SPINES", 3) BELOW THE "ILIAC CREST", 4) ABOVE "THE ILIAC CREST".

Time frame: 12 HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT, AND THE PATIENT WILL BE OBSERVED BY 1 WEEK
