Abstract:
:As continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis becomes more popular, the science of catheter selection, insertion, and maintenance becomes increasingly necessary. The proper use of and possible complications associated with several currently used catheters are discussed. The pros and cons of single- and double-cuff catheters, the optimal catheter tunnel direction, and the presentation and treatment of a few commonly occurring infections are reviewed to aid those considering intraperitoneal drug introduction and removal.
