- Abstract
Background: Several elderly patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) had to undergo urgent‐start peritoneal dialysis (USPD). This study aimed to determine whether break‐in period (BI) within 24 h was feasible in elderly patients undergoing USPD. Methods: Patients with ESRD who underwent PD at five hospitals were screened. Patients were divided into the BI ≤24 h and >24 h groups. Complications were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to determine whether BI ≤24 h was associated with complications. Results: A total of 175 elderly patients were included: BI ≤24 h group, 78; and BI >24 h group, 97. There was no significant difference in the rate of complications between the two groups (all p > 0.05). Furthermore, BI ≤24 h was not an independent risk factor for complications (all p > 0.05). Conclusions: Starting PD within 24 h after PD catheter insertion was feasible in elderly ESRD patients.
