As every treatment has some problems, peritoneal dialysis may cause some problems such as:
Pollution:
Contamination of the catheter exit from the patient's abdomen. Or inside the peritoneal membrane itself. As is well known, these conditions can be easily treated at home using antibiotics and do not need to be transferred to the hospital. The medical base says: "The sooner treatment is done, the faster the cure"
It is important to train the patient on how to reduce the incidence of pollution and even prevent it at all and other problems that may be encountered
2- Excessive solutions:
The second problem is the problem of increasing the solutions inside the patient's body. When the kidney stops working, the patient's kidney can not control the amount of urine coming out. This means that patients with renal failure produce too little urine and urine output may stop at all. They also retain excess water in the tissues of the body.
Renal failure patients must learn how to retain excess water in their bodies. Which should be done in the event of such a problem.
Remember that renal failure patients should learn all the basics of peritoneal dialysis prior to discharge from the hospital. The patient should contact the wash unit if any problems occur.
