Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in all its stages has become an important problem for older patients, stage 3 - 5 is expected to happen in 25 to 30% of the population, and a higher prevalence can be found in residential care and nursing homes, affecting the demand for patient education. Although older patients are able and keen to learn, there are specific needs that must be addressed. The focus of this paper is to review the demands to train and maintain older patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) at home.
慢性肾脏病(CKD)的各个阶段已成为老年患者面临的一个重要问题,预计3-5期在25%至30%的人群中会出现,在寄宿护理机构和疗养院中患病率更高,这影响了患者教育的需求。尽管老年患者有能力且渴望学习,但仍有一些特定需求必须得到满足。本文的重点是综述对居家腹膜透析(PD)老年患者进行培训和维持治疗的需求。
