To assess the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on hemodialysis (HD) centers, The Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study ISN collaborated a web-survey centers.A combined approach random sampling open invitation was used between March 2020 2021. Responses were obtained from 412 centers in 78 countries all 10 regions.In 8 regions, rates SARS-CoV-2 infection <20% most but North East Asia (NE Asia) Newly Independent States Russia (NIS & Russia), ≥20% ≥30%, respectively. Mortality ≥10% although...
Home dialysis may minimize SARS-CoV2 exposure risks compared to center-based dialysis. We explored how the pandemic have introduced challenges related peritoneal (PD) supply availability, routine patient care, and facility practices changed during this time.
Recurrent hemodialysis (HD)-induced ischemia has emerged as a mechanism responsible for cognitive impairment in HD patients. Impairment of cerebrovascular function patients may render the brain vulnerable to HD-induced ischemic injury. Cerebrovascular reactivity CO2 (CVR) is noninvasive marker function. Whether CVR impaired unknown. In this study, we compared between healthy participants, patients, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) not yet requiring dialysis.This was single-center prospective...

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has many advantages as a home treatment. While sex differences exist in the diagnosis and management of numerous different diseases, including kidney disease, there is limited understanding whether influences PD outcomes. Using prospective worldwide Dialysis Outcomes Practice Patterns Study (PDOPPS), we have been able to describe some initial significant disparities several important
ABSTRACT Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome (HHS) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. The episodes HHS have been reported in patients with no prior history diabetes. However, these incidents rarely the literature. present study reports case hyperosmolar patient without after being prescribed high‐dose steroid therapy. This highlights importance regularly monitoring blood glucose levels supraphysiological doses steroids. presents 29‐year‐old male previous who presented HHS,...
Background: Home dialysis may be able to minimize SARS-CoV2 exposure risks. The pandemic have introduced unique challenges related supply disruption and care delivery changes. We sought assess the global burden of COVID-19 on peritoneal units (PD) understand PD unit practice changes during this time. Methods: Peritoneal Dialysis/Dialysis Outcomes Practice Patterns Study (PDOPPS/DOPPS) International Society Nephrology (ISN) administered a webbased survey (1) selected based random sample...
