6 Definitions and meanings Here is some brief information regarding some of the terminology you will come across during the course of your illness as a kidney patient on Peritoneal Dialysis (PD). The detailed information is available in an individual leaflet. Working Kidneys purify blood by throwing out toxins via urine while retaining blood, protein and other important substances in body tablets. Renal Patient View (RPV) provides online information about renal patients' diagnosis, treatment, and their latest test results. Patients can share this information with anyone they want, and view it from anywhere in the world. Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) is carried out via fluid introduced into the abdomen, then drained out using a Cannula or Catheter (tube). PD is a dialysis technique that uses the patient's own body tissues inside the abdominal cavity (Peritoneum) as a filter. This can be done either manually or by a machine at home, thereby avoiding hospital dialysis. Anaemia means there are not enough red blood cells in your blood. This is measured as haemoglobin (Hb). In kidney patients a substance called erythropoietin which helps in the formation of red blood cells is produced less by the kidneys. CRP: (CRP) levels increase during peritonitis which is a potentially fatal inflammation of the abdomen's lining. You will have CRP measured with your other monthly bloods. Strict hand hygiene is paramount when undergoing PD. You will be taught what signs to look for by your Nurse. Albumin: is a protein in the blood. It will be low if you are unwell or unable to eat properly. Your Dietician will help you understand your dietary needs. Calcium & Phosphate: Kidneys produce vitamin D which helps body to maintain calcium and phosphorous - substances to keep bones and your vessels healthy. If these minerals are too high or low they can be dangerous. Transplant of a Kidney from another individual is considered when the kidneys do not function. A Family member or Friend can volunteer to do this for you at any time. You will have routine Transplant bloods taken in January, April, July & October. 6 Aintree renal patient care plan January Lead: Dr B K Pandya

14 KNOW YOUR NUMBERS Brief information (The details given below is only brief for your basic knowledge and does not include all the points. The detailed information is available in relevant leaflets. Please ask your Doctor or Nurse if necessary) Adequacy Clearance in Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) is typically measured by either Kt/V (Clearance, time and volume) or creatinine clearance (CrCl). Potassium is a substance which we consume in our diet accumulates in the body when kidneys functions are significantly reduced. Very high levels of potassium can cause various complications including sudden death. Bicarbonate is a measure of acid status in body. Kidneys produce bicarbonate to titrate acid produced normally in body. Bicarbonate level is reduced when kidney function deteriorates. PTH (Parathyroid Hormone): This hormone mainly maintains body s calcium and phosphate balance. The levels increase in response to low calcium and high phosphate in body. Increased PTH levels make bones brittle and arteries thickened. PET Test: (Peritoneal Equilibrium Test) can suggest how long PD fluid should stay (dwell) in your abdominal cavity for the best results. A PET will show if your peritoneum has a high, average, or low transport rate. The test looks at your drain volume, how much dextrose is left in the fluid sample, and how much creatinine is in your drain fluid vs. your blood. Your Nurse will explain what this means to you. Peritonitis: is an infection and inflammation of the Peritoneum. At best this is unpleasant and can be life threatening. Hand hygiene is essential when handling your PD Cannula. Your Nurses will educate you on this & how to be alert to the signs of infection. 14 Aintree renal patient care plan January Lead: Dr B K Pandya
