          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción: Un número importante de pacientes que ingresan al programa de diálisis peritoneal reciben simultáneamente la noticia de que tienen enfermedad renal crónica en etapa terminal y requieren diálisis peritoneal. Para muchos de ellos la noticia es inesperada y desconsoladora, ya que tienen que acceder a la diálisis para poder seguir viviendo. Material y Método: Estudio cualitativo, descriptivo con enfoque fenomenológico. De 106 pacientes incidentes del programa de diálisis peritoneal ambulatoria a quienes se les solicitó consentimiento informado para contestar el instrumento (Coping Inventory Strategies), se seleccionaron 14 pacientes que relataron sus vivencias respecto a su diagnóstico de enfermedad renal crónica y la necesidad urgente de diálisis peritoneal. Se les pidió que escribieran en una cuartilla cómo enfrentaron la noticia de insuficiencia renal crónica y requerir diálisis peritoneal. Resultados: Se incluyeron en el estudio a 14 pacientes, con edad comprendida entre 41 y 61 años, y el 66% fueron mujeres. Se identificaron tres categorías y siete subcategorías: sociolaboral (estigma social e incertidumbre por el trabajo); actitud ante la muerte (resignación y sentimiento de culpa) y acompañamiento familiar (toma de decisiones, motivación y apoyo). El mayor número de pacientes se ubicó en la categoría de actitud ante la muerte y en la subcategoría de resignación como estrategia de afrontamiento. Conclusiones: Los pacientes describieron la fase en la que se enteraron de su diagnóstico y el ingreso a diálisis peritoneal como el momento más difícil y traumático, manifestaron sentimientos de angustia, limitaciones personales o sociales y reconocieron la dependencia del apoyo familiar.

          ABSTRACT Introduction: A significant number of patients starting on peritoneal dialysis are simultaneously told that they have end-stage chronic kidney disease and require peritoneal dialysis. For many patients the news is unexpected and heartbreaking, as they have to access dialysis in order to stay alive. Method: Qualitative, descriptive study with a phenomenological approach. Of the 106 patients who were admitted to the outpatient peritoneal dialysis program, and who were asked for informed consent to answer the (Coping Inventory Strategies) instrument, 14 patients were selected who expressed their experiences regarding the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease and the urgent need for peritoneal dialysis. They were asked to write in one page how they coped with the news of chronic renal failure and the need for peritoneal dialysis. Results: The mean age was 58.3 years, 66% female and 34% male. Three categories and seven subcategories were identified: socio-occupational (social stigma and uncertainty about the work situation); attitude to death (resignation and guilt) and family support (decision-making, motivation and support). The highest number of patients fell into the category of attitude to death and the subcategory of resignation as a coping strategy. Conclusions: Patients described the phase when they learned of their diagnosis and admission to peritoneal dialysis as the most difficult and traumatic time, expressed feelings of distress, personal or social limitations and confessed dependence on family support.

          Chronic Kidney Disease.

          The definition and classification of chronic kidney disease (CKD) have evolved over time, but current international guidelines define this condition as decreased kidney function shown by glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of less than 60 mL/min per 1·73 m(2), or markers of kidney damage, or both, of at least 3 months duration, regardless of the underlying cause. Diabetes and hypertension are the main causes of CKD in all high-income and middle-income countries, and also in many low-income countries. Incidence, prevalence, and progression of CKD also vary within countries by ethnicity and social determinants of health, possibly through epigenetic influence. Many people are asymptomatic or have non-specific symptoms such as lethargy, itch, or loss of appetite. Diagnosis is commonly made after chance findings from screening tests (urinary dipstick or blood tests), or when symptoms become severe. The best available indicator of overall kidney function is GFR, which is measured either via exogenous markers (eg, DTPA, iohexol), or estimated using equations. Presence of proteinuria is associated with increased risk of progression of CKD and death. Kidney biopsy samples can show definitive evidence of CKD, through common changes such as glomerular sclerosis, tubular atrophy, and interstitial fibrosis. Complications include anaemia due to reduced production of erythropoietin by the kidney; reduced red blood cell survival and iron deficiency; and mineral bone disease caused by disturbed vitamin D, calcium, and phosphate metabolism. People with CKD are five to ten times more likely to die prematurely than they are to progress to end stage kidney disease. This increased risk of death rises exponentially as kidney function worsens and is largely attributable to death from cardiovascular disease, although cancer incidence and mortality are also increased. Health-related quality of life is substantially lower for people with CKD than for the general population, and falls as GFR declines. Interventions targeting specific symptoms, or aimed at supporting educational or lifestyle considerations, make a positive difference to people living with CKD. Inequity in access to services for this disease disproportionally affects disadvantaged populations, and health service provision to incentivise early intervention over provision of care only for advanced CKD is still evolving in many countries.

            A Syllabus for Teaching Peritoneal Dialysis to Patients and Caregivers.

            Being aware of controversies and lack of evidence in peritoneal dialysis (PD) training, the Nursing Liaison Committee of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) has undertaken a review of PD training programs around the world in order to develop a syllabus for PD training. This syllabus has been developed to help PD nurses train patients and caregivers based on a consensus of training program reviews, utilizing current theories and principles of adult education. It is designed as a 5-day program of about 3 hours per day, but both duration and content may be adjusted based on the learner. After completion of our proposed PD training syllabus, the PD nurse will have provided education to a patient and/or caregiver such that the patient/caregiver has the required knowledge, skills and abilities to perform PD at home safely and effectively. The course may also be modified to move some topics to additional training times in the early weeks after the initial sessions. Extra time may be needed to introduce other concepts, such as the renal diet or healthy lifestyle, or to arrange meetings with other healthcare professionals. The syllabus includes a checklist for PD patient assessment and another for PD training. Further research will be needed to evaluate the effect of training using this syllabus, based on patient and nurse satisfaction as well as on infection rates and longevity of PD as a treatment.
