To better define the survival and quality of life of patients with major left ventricular systolic dysfunction and end-stage renal disease treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), we reviewed all cases who started CAPD between May 1984 and March 1993 who had an isotopic left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < or = 35%. Seventeen patients (12 men and five women with a mean age of 51.6 +/- 14.9 years) met the inclusion criteria. Mean isotopic LVEF before initiation of CAPD was 24.8% +/- 8.2%. All patients were symptomatic from congestive heart failure. Thirteen patients were classified as New York Heart Association grade III or IV. Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis was associated with a significant improvement of isotopic LVEF, of functional status, and of blood pressure control. In 10 patients with a second measurement on CAPD, LVEF increased from a mean value of 23.2% +/- 9.1% to a mean value of 30.3% +/- 8.1% (P < 0.01). This represents a 30% increase of LVEF. After 6 months on CAPD, 94% of patients were classified as New York Heart Association grade I or II. Actuarial survival rates were 94%, 80%, and 64% at 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively. The mean duration of CAPD was 24 +/- 17 months. These results suggest that current CAPD treatment is an elective modality of treatment in patients with concomitant heart and renal failure.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
