Findings

Song et al. [20]

Prospective randomized

Urgent-start PD

21: gradual increase exchange volumes 38: full exchange volume (2 L)

Percutaneous placement

Overall, 1-year catheter survival was 84.2% No different on mechanical complication between full volume exchange and stepwise volume incremental methods

Bitencourt et al. [18]

Prospective study

Urgent-start PD

51

Percutaneous placement

Patients and technical survival in 6 months were 82.4 and 86%, respectively

Povlsen et al. [5]

Retrospective study

Urgent-start PD vs. Planned PD

52: urgent-start PD with automated PD

88: planned start PD

Open surgical

Higher rate of mechanical complication in urgent start PD (28.9 vs. 7.7%, p = 0.01) and surgical replacement (19.2% vs. 3.9%, p = 0.01)

Jin et al [7]

Retrospective study

Urgent-start PD vs. Urgent-start HD

96: PD

82: HD

Open surgical

Compared with PD patients. HD patients had higher rate of dialysis related complications requiring reinsertion (1.0% vs. 24.4%, p = 0.01), non-infectious complications (3.1% vs. 13.4%, p = 0.011), and catheter-related infection (0% vs. 11%, p = 0.003)

Xu et al. [10]

Observational cohort study

Urgent-start PD

922

Open surgical

The rate of abdominal wall and catheter complication were 4.8 and 9.5%, respectively

See et al. [22]

Matched case control study

Urgent-start PD vs. Conventional start PD

26: urgent-start PD

78: conventional-start PD

Laparoscopic technique

Higher rate of frequent leak of catheter insertion in urgent-start PD (12% vs. 1%, p = 0.007). Technique survivals were comparable between 2 groups

Htay et al. [14]

Meta-analysis

PD (different catheter implantation techniques)

3,144

Laparoscopy Percutaneous placement Open surgical

No different on catheter insertion technique on risk of PD-related infectious complications, technical survival, and patient survival
