Risk Assessment of Peritoneal Dialysis Failure Based on Catheter Tip Location.

• Conditions: Renal Failure

• Registration Number: NCT01868854
• Lead Sponsor: Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia Ignacio Chavez

Brief Summary

The location of the catheter tip in radiographic planes 1 and 2, is a protection factor for the mechanical performance of peritoneal Dialysis. Instead radiographic planes 3 and 4 are risk factors.

Detailed Description

Radiolucency of the peritoneal dialysis catheter, allow to classify the location of the tip into 4 radiographic planes. Plane 1: below the zone of a line on the head of the femur. Plane 2: is the area above the plane 1 and below a line connecting the two iliac spines. Plane 3: is the area that is above the plane 2 and below a line connecting the upper edge of the two iliac crests. Plane 4: is the area located above the plane 3.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
MECHANICAL OPERATION OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER	TWELVE HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT	MEASURE THE TIME THAT RETURNING IN 1 LITER OF SOLUTION AFTER INFUSION PERITONEAL. TAKE IT AS FLUID RETURN FAILURE WHEN A DELAY SAME OR GREATER THAN 20 MINUTES.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
LOCATION OF THE TIP OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER THROUGH STANDING ABDOMINAL RADIOGRAPHY	12 HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT, AND THE PATIENT WILL BE OBSERVED BY 1 WEEK	RADIOGRAPIC PLANS ARE CLASSIFIED IN 4 LEVEL: 1) BELOW THE "HEADS OF THE FEMUR", 2) BELOW " ILIAC SPINES", 3) BELOW THE "ILIAC CREST", 4) ABOVE "THE ILIAC CREST".
