Abstract
in English, French

Volume overload in peritoneal dialysis (PD) is common and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. If left untreated, it can result in premature technique failure in patients receiving PD. Practitioners should be aware of common causes and formulate a stepwise approach in the management of volume overload.

La surcharge volumique est fréquente chez les patients traités par dialyse péritonéale (DP) et elle est associée à davantage de morbidité et de mortalité. Une surcharge volumique non traitée peut entraîner une défaillance technique prématurée chez les patients sous dialyse péritonéale. Il est important que les praticiens connaissent les causes communes de la surcharge volumique et qu’une approche par étapes soit formulée pour sa prise en charge.

Keywords: automated peritoneal dialysis; dialysis; peritoneal dialysis; volume overload.
