Abstract

This investigation has sought to determine reasons for the disproportionately higher number of females entering CAPD as opposed to home hemodialysis. A sample of 295 home dialysis patients, 97 women and 198 men, were compared in terms of modality of choice, baseline demographic characteristics, treatment outcome, and quality of life. The results indicate that there is no apparent rationale for the current selection basis.
