Advantages of PD in children • The quality of life of children and their family is better during PD than HD. • The residual renal function is better preserved during PD than HD. • There are logistical advantages of PD. It requires:a lower staff : patient ratio than HD a lower dose of rHUEPO
PD is the dialysis of choice : • For children with weight < 15 kg • For children expected to have a prolonged period of dialysis • For children living too far from a pediatric hemodialysis unit

Multi-disciplinary team • Structure Doctors, nurses, dietitians, social workers, psychologists, play therapists, teachers. • Goal To deliver to children the care required for their long-term well being and for their optimal quality of life. • Team meetings give the entire team opportunity for interaction and collaborative decision making.
Team working improves patient care and enhances the quality of the working life.
Quality improvement on the organization of PN centers • Continuous education of all health professionals. • Each member of the team should have inovative approach and the goal to achieve the excellence. • A set of standards of clinical practice and detailed protocols should be available. • A detailed registry of patients should be updated. • Networking with other PN centers, multicenter studies and global cooperation should be a priority

Steps for quality reassurance in PPD • All children on PD should be managed in a pediatric nehrology center. • Peritoneal catheters should implanted surgically under general anesthesia. • A lateral technique through the rectus muscle and two purse-string sutures around the peritoneum might reduce the risk for leakage. • The training for the parents at the initiating PD treatment should be detailed and last > 2 weeks. • A '’closed twin-bag PD system with Y-line'' or automated PD should be preferred.
Targets for adequacy of peritoneal dialysis Adequate dose of PD is the amount of PD below which there is an increase in morbidity and mortality Optimal dose of PD is the amount of PD yielding clinical results which cannot further improve Optimal dose Adequate dose CJ Stefanidis 2001
Νational Κidney Foundation D O Q I Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative NKF-DOQI began in March 1995 Work Groups of 70 professionals reviewed > 11,000 articles. Only 206 articles were included at the final publication. In 1997 114 evidence-based clinical practice guidelines were developed.

Clinical outcome goals of K/DOQI for PD patients • Measurement of PD Patient Survival • Measurement of PDTechnical Survival • Measurement of Hospitalization • Measurement of Hemoglobin /Hematocrit • Measurement of Albumin Concentration • Measurement of Normalized PNA • Measurement of Patient-Based Assessment of quality of life • Measurement of Growth, Developmental Progress and School Attendence Am J Kidn Dis S94-S99 2001
Clinical outcome goals of K/DOQI for PD patients • PD Patient Survival is dependent uponuncontrollable and controllable (inadequste dialysis) variables • PD Technical Survival is dependent upon: • Complications (peritonitis) • inadequste dialysis malnutrition peritonitis • ` 75% 2-year technique survival rate • Inability to perform PD • (lack of access, medical contraindications) • Patient request/lifestyle issues (burnout)
Clinical outcome goals of K/DOQI for PD patients • Measurement of Hospitalizations • 1.8 times/year (CANUSA) • Measurement of Hemoglobin • Should be 11-13 g/dl in 75% of patients. • Measurement of Albumin Concentration • Measurement of Normalized PNA Am J Kidn Dis S94-S99 2001
Quality Improvement on PPD what SEPNWG should do ? • Register the PN centers of the area of SEPNWG. • Enhance the appropriate organization of the PN. centers and disseminate the use of clinical guidelines. • The clinical outcome of patients should be continuously evaluated. • The problems of children on PD should be discussed and appropriate solutions should be advised.
