The difference between keeping the abdomen for peritoneal dialysis and not keeping the abdomen mainly lies in the different advantages and disadvantages.
Peritoneal dialysis can effectively avoid repeated intubation to bring patients pain and other uncomfortable symptoms and is more convenient, dialysis is sufficient. However, prolonged indwelling abdomen may cause bacteria to enter the patient’s abdominal cavity through the catheter, resulting in wound infection and intra-abdominal infection, which may lead to sepsis and septicemia in severe cases. Retaining the abdomen creates an additional volume load and increases cardiovascular complications.
Peritoneal dialysis without abdominal retention reduces the incidence of invasive and intra-abdominal infections, and allows the peritoneum to rest adequately. However, peritoneal dialysis without peritoneum will require repeated puncture, and repeated puncture for a long period of time will cause pain and other uncomfortable symptoms to the patient.
It is recommended to do peritoneal dialysis patients, usually pay attention to the diet of nutrition and light, avoid eating spicy, cold, irritating food. If symptoms occur, it is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor for targeted treatment.
