Abstract

The previous decade saw the generation of a series of consensus and evidence-based guidelines for the optimal management of dialysis patients. The majority of these have emanated from national and regional committees. There is not always agreement among these documents; part of this disparity may have to do with the nuances of dialysis practice in different parts of the world. The International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) has commissioned a working group with representation from Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America to formulate a series of recommendations concerning the delivery of adequate peritoneal dialysis (PD). It is the hope of the authors that the comments and recommendations presented here are relevant and applicable to those worldwide who manage patients on PD, and that they are readable, precise, and concise. These recommendations have been approved by the Standards and Education Committee of the ISPD.
