Just a quick update to those who see these videos and are curious how I am doing... as of 6/11 I am almost 2.5 years post transplant and doing great. My donor is also doing great. :) I am so glad that these videos have helped to show the process of PD to potential patients. ESRD is a lot of work no matter what the treatment method, but is manageable and you can live a full life. I wish everyone the best.
@sevakili not washing hands, not showering, not cleaning the exit site, having a fan on in your room while connecting, not masking, touching the tube etc
Thanks for sharing your video, tonight was my 3 year old son's first PD at home. He did 10 cycles and is sound asleep. It's 4:50AM and I would like people to please visit his site at rayarodriguez.blogspot .com
I believe the most serious complication that can result from peritoneal dialysis is infection, so you are right about caution with aseptic technique. I get the impression you have had a transplant, hope all is well,and thanks for posting this...I am a nursing student and we don't always get to see live everything we are studying. Not only does this make the process more clear, but it puts a human face on it as well, which is the most important thing!
nice iodine stain man!

what other factors have you found that can put the home peritoneal dialysis patient at a higher risk for coming in with peritonitis?

I wish I had a camera back when I was on PD. I have a kidney transplant now myself. What date did you get yours?
