Cardiac Surgery Outcomes in Patients Receiving Hemodialysis Versus Peritoneal Dialysis.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale & objective

We sought to compare outcomes of patients receiving dialysis after cardiothoracic surgery on the basis of dialysis modality (intermittent hemodialysis [HD] vs peritoneal dialysis [PD]).

Study design

This was a retrospective analysis.

Setting & participants

In total, 590 patients with kidney failure receiving intermittent HD or PD undergoing coronary artery bypass graft and/or valvular cardiac surgery at Cleveland Clinic were included.

Exposure

The patients received PD versus HD (intermittent or continuous).

Outcomes
