International peritoneal dialysis training practices and the risk of peritonitis.
In peritoneal dialysis (PD), the impact of training on patient outcomes is not well understood, with a lack of evidence to inform best practices in training. The purpose of this study was to compare international PD training practices and evaluate their association with peritonitis. In this prospective study, a cohort of 1,376 adult patients from 120 facilities across 7 counties were included, all of whom were participating in the Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (PDOPPS) and were on PD for greater than 3 months. Training characteristics were reported at patient and facility levels and included duration, location, and modality of training, use of individual/ group training, use of written/ oral competency assessments, training of family members, and nurse affiliation. The study found that training was most typically conducted in a one-on-one setting (79%) by facility-affiliated nurses (87%) at the facility (81%). In 5 of 14 United Kingdom facilities, receiving training from both facility and external, third-party nurses was associated with a reduced risk of peritonitis. However, no other training characteristics were significantly associated with risk of peritonitis. The study concluded that in this study, there was no evidence that risk of peritonitis was associate with the assessed characteristics of PD patient training.
