AbstractAutomated peritoneal dialysis systems have helped make intermittent peritoneal dialysis an alternative to hemodialysis for long-term management of patients with end-stage renal disease. However, if not cleaned and maintained properly, these machines provide a reservoir for pathogens. The microbiologic barriers in these machines are not impenetrable, but sterile dialy-sate fluid can be produced if the machines are adequately cleaned and disinfected. Potential shortcomings of the microbiologic barriers are discussed, and guidelines to prevent contamination of the internal parts of a machine are suggested.

A female patient with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) was treated with automated peritoneal dialysis when she reached end-stage renal disease. The patient has been doing very well on automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) for almost 6 years without peritonitis or abdominal hernias. Intra-abdominal pressures are lower in the supine position than in an erect or sitting position. Larger volumes of dialysate are better tolerated while the patient is supine, as during nocturnal APD. Therefore, APD is an option of the renal replacement therapy for patients with PKD.
