The majority of dialysis patients initiate dialysis using hemodialysis, rather than peritoneal dialysis (PD), although they may be candidates for either modality.Multiple factors account for this selection, including pre-dialysis education, physician familiarity with hemodialysis versus PD, and patient-related factors. This paper will discuss the various considerations by both providers and patients in the selection of PD as a modality.
大多数透析患者开始透析时采用血液透析，而非腹膜透析（PD），尽管他们可能适合这两种方式中的任何一种。多种因素导致了这种选择，包括透析前教育、医生对血液透析与腹膜透析的熟悉程度以及患者相关因素。本文将讨论提供者和患者在选择PD作为透析方式时的各种考虑因素。
