  3. Chronic Kidney Disease and End Stage Kidney failure (ESKF)

  4. Hemodialysis V/s Peritoneal Dialysis

  5. Setting up Peritoneal Dialysis Program • Infrastructure : PD service and education area, training area, treatment room, consultation room and waiting area • Manpower : Nephrologists/Physicians to prescribe PD, One PD Nurse per 20 patients, other support staff • Information Technology:for inventory management, monitoring, ordering pharmacy supplies, authorization & billing • Equipment:Mainly OT infrastructure for catherisation, bag scales, bag warmer, weighing scales, Blood Pressure machine, cleaning solutions, dressings, towels, dressing packs and PD cycler • Drugs & Diagnostics :to be provided free of cost through National Free drugs and diagnostic scheme, without this states are not advised to initiate the dialysis program

  6. Managing Entry of patients to dialysis • Planned - CKD under care of a nephrologists who has been prepared • Planned - transitioning from another RRT, e.g. failed transplant, switch from HD • Unplanned - including those presenting with ESKF for the first time directly to emergency (crash landers) • From primary care - under medical care but not prepared for dialysis The initial decision to start a patient on dialysis can be made by a nephrologist or a physician with appropriate training (with a confirmation within 4 weeks by a nephrologist).

  7. Requirements for PD in a home setting • Regular house keeping requirements like change of bed sheets, pillow covers etc • Dry space for storage approx one cubic meter • Room with minimum furniture • No Pets • Management Responsibility • Control of Documents • Control of records • Competence, awareness and training • Design and Development • Purchasing information • Control of Non-conforming product • Analysis of data • Corrective action and preventive action • Consumer related processes

  8. Family Support and PD The family supports the patient in: • PD preparation and exchange • Exit-site care, dressing, hand wash, general hygiene. • Ability to identify any complication, including the infections. • Measurement of blood-pressure, weight and continuous filling the log-book with ultra filtration measure • Ability to communicate with caregivers and ensure supplies - nurse, doctor their complaint

  9. Training Specifications • PD nurses are the owner of the PD training program • The recommended training format - VARK format-Visual, Aural, Read-write and Kinesthetic Types of training • Continuous ambulatory peritoneal (CAPD) • Post infection technique reviews Trainer • They should be a trained and certified nurse or clinical coordinator • They should be part of a designated PD team • Should be available to teach on a 1:1 basis with the patient throughout training • Trainee • If capable, the individual patient should be taught how to perform the procedure themselves. • A carer may be trained if the patient is incapable or a child

  10. Key performance Indicators : Peritonitis rate • Other KPIs : PD Penetration, catheter survival, technique survival, resolution of peritonitis and catheter reimplantation rates, culture positivity rates, drop out rates (with cause)

  11. Total Budget Requirement • Total Patients on therapy: 1.1 lacs • Monthly requirement: 90-120 bags per patient • Monthly per patient cost (range) INR 18,000-INR26,400 • Total Budget required (range) INR 2500 crore to INR 3704 crore

  12. Likely challenges in rolling our PD Program • Logistics related challenges : critical input for a successful PD program is the timely and adequate availability of prescription-specific quantity of PD fluids at the user’s end. Selected service/partnering with a credible, reliable logistics provider to overcome the challenges associated with logistics may be explored • Environmental concerns : Every month each patient generates approximately 200 L waste water, urea, creatinine and other biochemical wastes which require to be drained in toilet flush with 1:10 dilution of household bleach. Disposing of approximately 100 PD bags per patient per month would also be a likely challenge
