Because of medical advances, kidney failure is no longer a death sentence. Today, those with kidney failure have treatment options like dialysis and kidney transplantation. Unfortunately, many aren't aware that home hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis treatments are available. What is peritoneal dialysis and who can benefit from it? Today, Britney Dickerson, dialysis patient, and Jenny Wilson, Davita's regional director of home dialysis in New York City, are here to break it down. Jennie Wilson, MSN, RN has been working in Home Dialysis for over a decade and currently oversees several centers in the New York Metro Area that provide training and care to home dialysis patients. Her interest in population health and healthy equity has led to her passion for educating patients on their dialysis modality options. She has partnered with the National Kidney Foundation on various projects to share the clinical and lifestyle benefits of home dialysis. Brittany Dickerson- I am a dedicated mother, motivational speaker, and compassionate life coach living with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). I use my kidney failure battle to educate and help others regarding kidney disease and transplantation. My personal journey has fueled my passion for helping others navigate life's challenges with courage and grace. Through partnership with the National Kidney Foundation, I have had the opportunity to mentor others and to be a guest for the National Kidney Foundation Podcast channel. My dedication to kidney awareness has led me to pursue becoming a National Kidney Foundation Advocate. I use my voice to spread my powerful message of perseverance and hope. My goal is to continue making an impact on individuals facing adversity, offering guidance, support, and being a shining example of strength in the face of hardship.    Do you have comments, questions, or suggestions?

This Podcast discusses a study on the effect of fluid overload-related hospitalizations on survival in PD patients. The study found that patients hospitalized due to fluid overload within the first 12 months of starting PD had higher mortality rates.

This episode highlights a study on the time-varying effect of assistance on risk of PD cessation using data from the RDPLF of 15675 incident PD patients. Patients treated with assisted PD had a greater risk of death and a lower risk of transfer to HD.

Direct Peritoneal Resuscitation!  We're not just dumping fluids into the open abdomen.  What is DPR?  Why do it?  Who should get it?  Does it work? Come try and stay awake for some basic science talk before then learning all about why you should consider adopting DPR into your Trauma/EGS practice? Join Drs. Cobler-Lichter, Kwon, Meizoso, Urréchaga, and Rattan as they guide you through all this and more!  Hosts: Michael Cobler-Lichter, MD, PGY2: University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital/Ryder Trauma Center @mdcobler (twitter) Eva Urrechaga, MD, PGY6/R4: University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital/Ryder Trauma Center @urrechisme (twitter) Eugenia Kwon, MD, Trauma/Surgical Critical Care Fellow: University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital/Ryder Trauma Center Jonathan Meizoso, MD, MSPH Assistant Professor of Surgery, 3 years in practice University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital/Ryder Trauma Center @jpmeizoso (twitter) Rishi Rattan, MD, Attending Surgeon in Trauma/Critical Care, 7 years in practice Legacy Emanuel Medical Center @DrRishiRattan (twitter) Learning Objectives: - State the proposed benefits of DPR - Identify who can benefit from DPR - Demonstrate the proper way to set up a DPR circuit - Discuss the proposed basic science mechanism for DPR's efficacy Quick Hits: 1.      Consider DPR in all your open abdomens in EGS/Trauma.  You never know when you're going to be able to close some of these patients. 2.     The principal of DPR is to allow the fluid to dwell in the abdomen as long as possible.  Keep the catheter deep and don't put holes in your dressing. 3.     DPR is ideal for patients with packing, who are in discontinuity, and for fresh anastomoses.  These will only benefit from DPR, not be harmed by it.  4.     Make sure these patients are receiving hourly I/Os.  Nursing by-in is huge for this procedure. 5.     DPR is associated with higher rates of fascial closure, reduces inflammation, and improves blood flow to the abdomen.

Let's discuss the sheets of connective tissue in the abdominal cavity, aka the peritoneum. Let's explore how the folds of this membrane are called different things depending on how many folds there are, & how these folds form spaces……that us anatomists also name. In addition to the terminology, let's discuss the functions & clinical relevance of all these membranes, to justify knowing them. Terms covered this week: The peritoneum & the parietal & visceral iterations of this. Peritoneal fluid. The mesentery. The greater & lesser omentum. The greater & lesser sacs. Finally, what on earth is meant by retroperitoneal?

In this panel episode recorded at SIR 2023, Drs. Stephen Hunt, Chuck Martin, and Gaurav Gadodia update us on current applications and future directions of augmented reality in interventional radiology. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Medtronic Ellipsys Vascular Access System https://www.medtronic.com/ellipsys --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn free AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/voyqG5 --- SHOW NOTES Dr. Hunt explains the differences between virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) since there is increasing levels of overlap between virtual and real worlds with each category . He notes that all three are being explored in surgical fields, especially orthopedics and neurosurgery. Within IR, augmented reality can be used to adjust images and subtract out respiratory motion, making biopsies and ablations safer and more effective. Dr. Hunt became interested in AR when his PIGI Lab at the University of Pennsylvania needed 3D models to access liver tumors in experimental mice. Additionally, AR is a useful tool for planning difficult procedures and teaching interventional procedures to trainees across the globe. Dr. Martin speaks about the intersection of medicine and industry. He directs research studies for Mediview, a company focused on bringing AR into medical imaging. Dr. Martin speaks about the important role that industry plays in commercializing an invention and getting it into operators' hands. As larger companies enter the AR space, accessibility and user interfaces will improve. Additionally, the shift towards AR product development can guide future FDA regulations. Dr. Gadodia's engineering background made him excited to enter the AR space as resident at the Cleveland Clinic. He highlights applications of AR in the non-academic setting. Using a headset could increase procedural efficiency and access to care. Finally, we discuss major shifts in industry and medicine that favor the increasing use of AR, such as industry's need for clinician input in product development, the multitude of startups working on the same issues, and the overarching goal of patient safety. --- RESOURCES Ep. 7- Lung Tumor Ablation with Dr. Stephen Hunt: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/7/lung-tumor-ablation Ep. 53- International IR Volunteer Work with Dr. Stephen Hunt: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/53/international-ir-volunteer-work Mediview: https://mediview.com/ Microsoft HoloLens: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/hololens Penn Image-Guided Interventions (PIGI) Lab: https://www.med.upenn.edu/pigilab/

 March 24, 2023Mark, Ray, and Scott discuss FAQs:  Would you consider interposition of peritoneal flaps separately billable with a Prostatectomy/lymphadenectomy? “The peritoneum at the dome of the bladder was folded over itself and anchored to the front sides of the bladder”. There is no guidance out there that I can find for coding, other than studies that show it is more of a prophylactic procedure to prevent lymphoceles. I am currently not coding for it but was wanting a second opinion. With the PHE ending on 5/11/2023, but telehealth being extended thru 12/31/2024, what is the ruling on using non HIPAA compliant platforms such as Facetime?  Will this exception being going away with the 1135 waiver ending ?If a provider is only interested to do a post void residual (51798) and do not have a bladder scanner, can we use the ultrasound information (76857) as a post void residual and charge that way? Can you bill 76857 since the provider interprets the result of the post void residual?  Thank you.   Join The Urology Coding Compliance and Education Network and get started today!Pricing and More Information The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/ThrivingPractice  Join the discussion:Urology Coding and Reimbursement Group - Join for free and ask your questions, and share your wisdom.Click Here to Start Your Free Trial of AUACodingToday.com

FDA D.I.S.C.O. Burst Edition: FDA approval of Elahere (mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx) for FRα positive, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Jorge Hoegl to discuss peritoneal carcinomatosis after minimally invasive surgery in cervical cancer. Dr. Jorge Hoegl is an early career gynecologic oncologist at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the General Hospital of the East “Dr. Domingo Luciani” in Caracas, Venezuela. Highlights: -Peritoneal carcinomatosis represented more than 15% of all recurrences, with a recurrence rate of 22.2% in minimally invasive surgery compared to 8.8%. -Peritoneal carcinomatosis has been frequently grouped within distant recurrences and perhaps this made it not such a notorious fact. -Peritoneal carcinomatosis does not appear to be an unusual recurrence pattern associated with cervical cancer and it should be reported separately.

In this podcast, James Matera, DO, speaks about the importance and benefits of urgent-start peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the management of patients with chronic kidney disease, the tools needed for a successful urgent-start PD program, and the pitfalls of urgent-start PD.

In this podcast, EIC Josie Briggs talks with Lekha Tummalapalli about a study addressing costs of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. An editorial on this issue is published in the November (33.11) issue of JASN.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Patients with recurrent ascites may need frequent outpatient or emergency department paracentesis which can be time consuming and uncomfortable for patients.  Tunneled peritoneal catheters are a permanent alternative therapy which allows fluid drainage at home by patient or caregiver.  There has been theoretical concern that long term placement of tunneled peritoneal catheters may increase risk of infection, thus they are more commonly placed as a palliative measure for patients with end stage cancer and malignant ascites with shorter anticipated life spans. However, a recent small study found that in both patients with malignant ascites and recurrent ascites from cirrhosis, tunneled peritoneal catheter placement reduced symptoms from ascites and did not increase risk of infection or leakage at catheter site, or spontaneous bacterial peritonitis after four weeks. More research is emerging and tunneled peritoneal catheters may become more common.   References Kimer N, Riedel AN, Hobolth L, et al.

In a subset of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), the peritoneum is the predominant site of dissemination. While cure can be achieved by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), this procedure is associated with long-term morbidity and high relapse rates. In this episode of ModPath CHAT, Drs. Siesing and Jirstrom from Lund University in Sweden discuss their recent study in Modern Pathology on the topic. Multi-region immunohistochemical profiling and deep targeted DNA-sequencing was performed on 7 mCRC patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). SATB2 was lacking in the majority of cases, and a conspicuous intra-patient heterogeneity was denoted for expression of (RBM3). Mutations in key CRC driver genes, i.e., KRAS, APC and TP53, were homogenously distributed across all samples. The authors conclude that their findings should trigger additional studies addressing the potential distinctiveness of mCRC with PC, which might pave the way for improved personalized treatment of these patients.

Epub 2017 Oct 19. PMID: 29049991.ScriptHello and welcome to our second episode of 2 truths and a lie, an NSMC podcast.Let's go over the ground rules.One at a time each member of our elite education panel will state two truths and one lie about Nephrology.This episode will focus specifically on peritoneal dialysis.The other panelist will then discuss which statement they think is The Lie.Our presenter will then educate us all on which statement is incorrect and why.So let's warm up our lie detectors.Let's meet our three players for today.I'm your host Dr.Mythri Shankar, Assistant Professor in Nephrology from Institute of Nephro-urology, Bengaluru, India.And here is our second Panelist Dr.Carlo from the Philippines! Hi Dr.Carlo, can you please introduce yourself? Our third Panelist is Dr.Brian Rifkin from the United states of America. Hello Dr.Brian, …..please introduce yourself?Great, so let me start, I will give you 3 statements…Number 1.Peritoneal Dialysis is a good option for patients with Diabetes mellitus. (True)The concern for diabetic patients undergoing PD is over the absorption of dextrose from the PD fluid which would cause hyperglycemia. But studies comparing HD and PD in daibetic population has not shown that one is superior over the other. European Renal Best Practice Diabetes Guideline Development Group conducted a systematic review of 25 observational studies on the type of dialysis and mortality and found no mortality differences across the subpopulations. There were some limitations with respect to study designs. In the absence of clear evidence of superiority of one modality over the other, PD should not be denied to diabetic patients. The modality of dialysis should be according to patient preference. High dextrose solutions should be avoided as much as possible. Multidisciplinary team approach should be used for blood glucose management.Number 2.The adequacy of Peritoneal dialysis (Kt/v) in obese patients is falsely low. (True)Traditional exit sites cannot to used in obese patients which is a barrier for PD catheter insertion. In motivated obese patients, presternal exit site is a good option. There are no studies showing superiority of one catheter type over the other due to technical issues.Also, it is thought that adequacy of dialysis is lesser in obese patients. This is because Kt/V can not be applied to obese patients. The watson equation assesses total body water using age, sex, height and weight which cannot be applied in obese patients.It give false high volume of distribution and hence, less kt/v. Alternatively, creatinine clearance can be calculated instead of kt/V.Another retrospective study, showed that obese pts had longer survival on PD compared to low BMI pts even after adjustment for transplant and modality failure.Number 3. Infectious complications are very frequent in Peritoneal Dialysis patients (False)Peritonitis, the most common infection among PD patients, is actually quite rare. A large multicenter study by Perl et al published in the year 2020 demonstrated that among 7000 patients across 209 facilities in 7 countries, there were 2272 peritonitis episodes during 7876 follow-up years. This translates to a crude rate of only 0.28 episodes per patient year . In comparison, catheter related bloodstream infections associated with hemodialysis tunneled catheters were much more common at 1.1 to 5.5 episodes per 1000 catheter days (Miller et al. 2016). The risk of peritonitis can be reduced with proper training and handwashing techniques. Mythri : (“You got me”, or “Nope, I fooled you”). (Then give a paragraph explanation of why it is a lie, or similar knowledge to explain why other statements are true.) OK, that was fun. Moving on to Dr.Carlo, can you give us your 2 truths and a lie.Person #2:A. Patients on PD have a lower risk of developing heart failure compared to their HD counterparts (True)In a large retrospective cohort study involving 4754 matched pairs of HD and PD patients, PD patients had a significantly lower incidence of CHF (19.71 per 1000 patient years versus 25.98 per 1000 patient years) (Sun et al. 2019). PD provides gentle ultrafiltration, resulting in lesser hemodynamic fluctuations, neurohormonal activation and myocardial ischemia. Unlike in HD, PD is not associated with myocardial stunning (Selby and McIntyre, 2011), an important process in the progression of heart failure.B. PD is a better dialysis modality than haemodialysis (false)There are numerous studies comparing PD to HD in terms of mortality and quality of life Zazzeroni L et al, 2017. Quality of life has been shown to be a useful outcome measure in patients with kidney failure Tannor et al, 2018. There is no difference between PD and HD with respect to survival and quality of life Gokal et al, 1999. PD and HD have been shown to be rather complementary and should be chosen based on availability and patient preference and be worked up for kidney transplantation which has rather been shown to be better than PD and HD in terms of cost, quality of life and survival Kawanishi H et al, 2008.C. Peritoneal dialysis is more expensive than Haemodialysis in low and lower-middle income countries. (True)Peritoneal dialysis has been suggested as less expensive than Haemodialysis in most developed countries as it is assumed to be operational without expensive machines. But there is evidence to suggest that this may not be the case in low and low-middle income countries as the cost is comparable to that of HD or even more expensive as there is no local production of PD fluid and the import duties on PD fluid and equipment are expensive. Karopadi AN, 2013OK, that was fun. Moving on to Dr.Brian, can you give us your 2 truths and a lie.Person #3:Doing Peritoneal Dialysis exchanges are time consuming (FALSE)PD may allow you more time to spend with family and friends, at work, or to simply do what you love most because you can perform dialysis outside of a dialysis center. Additionally, if you choose continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD), you will dialyze while you sleep and spend an average of three hours per week setting up and cleaning equipment.Peritoneal dialysis is not complicated and can be done by very elderly people and people with disabilities. (TRUE)Although PD may be more challenging for people with certain disabilities (blindness, deafness, amputation, etc.), this treatment may still be an option. With the help of a care partner and/or special equipment it can often be done. Training and safety programs are available to educate patients on how to perform safe and effective treatments.There are no age limits for this treatment option. Elderly people as well as children may be able to perform PD with assistance. Care partners can make it easier to perform treatments, which may help patients feel more confident and comfortable dialyzing at home.Peritoneal dialysis patients can own pets (TRUE)Pets cannot be in the room while you are performing PD, but you can still have them. Be sure to keep your home and designated treatment area clean. Also catheters are not toys. Women with a cat ended up with pasterella infection when cat bit the catheter.Conclusion by host:Well, that was really helpful and informative. I would like to thank our panelists for participating today. Be sure to tune in next time for more FOAMed nephrology education.
