Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of follow-up frequency on the dialysis quality of patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Methods 298 CAPD pa-tients were selected for retrospective analysis from December 2005 to April 2007. All patients were di-vided into two groups according to different follow-up frequency: group A (shorter than 3 months),group B (longer than 3 months). The dialysis quality of the two groups was compared. Results The levels of hemoglobin, albumin and transferrin of group A were (112.19±20.62)mmol/L, (40.45±4.50) retool/L, (2.43±0.29) mmol/L,which were significantly higher than those of group B, (99.63±20.69) mmol/L, (38.01±5.02)mmol/L,(2.29±0.36) mmol/L (P＜0.05). In addition, edema level, life self-care,work capacity, median duration of dialysis, education level and address in group A were significantly different from those of group B (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Shortening follow-up frequency plays an im-portsnt role in improving the dialysis quality of CAPD patients.
