Background and Aims Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is generally associated with a good survival rate and with great preservation of residual renal function (RRF). The various causes of technique failure are responsible for the relative short time staying in PD. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the outcome and factors correlated with maintenance peritoneal dialysis (PD) to guide for improving prognosis. Method In a retrospective way we examined our PD-cohort concerning mortality, technique survival, peritonitis rate, and other complications. Results From 2005 to 2019 the number of PD patients who have been treated in PD program for more than 3 months was around 199 patient, 29.1% diabetics, mean age 53.3±15.03 years old and meantime in therapy 32.39± 27.34 months. The PD was seen as an alternative for younger patients in the transplant list and elderly patients with comorbidity. Around 7.5% of the PD patients were transplanted and 8.5 % of patients were transferred from HD due to vascular access failure. Around 88.9% of patients were on PD for more than 1 year, 37.7% from 3 up to 5 years and 19.8% percent of the patients have stayed on PD for more than 5 years. Cardiovascular mortality was the main cause of mortality with 53% of the cases. Higher comorbidity index, lower albumin levels, and lower residual renal function were the main risk factors for lower survival. The technical survival of patients was 92.3% during the first year, 79.5% and 69.6% in the second and the fifth year, respectively. There was not found a difference in technical survival between diabetics and nondiabetics patients. Ultrafiltration failure followed by peritonitis was the main reason for transfer patients with more than 24 months in therapy in hemodialysis probably linked with the no availability of icodextrin. Peritonitis rate was 1:41 patient months. Conclusion PD program in our center is organized based in the concept of integrated care in RRT. The outcome of our patients was at least comparable to those reported by larger registries Although we have done good progress in the prevention of infection the nonavailability of icodextrin is an important factor for a technical failure. RRF is an important factor and we need to be more focused to maintain it longer in the future.
