A comparison of two types of catheters for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)
Abstract
This study was undertaken to critically examine the value of the curled Tenckhoff catheter for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) access with respect to the incidence of catheter-related complications. In the setting of a prospective, randomised, double-blind comparison, we were unable to demonstrate any advantage of the curled Tenckhoff catheter over the conventional straight type.
