Risk Assessment of Peritoneal Dialysis Failure Based on Catheter Tip Location.

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The location of the catheter tip in radiographic planes 1 and 2, is a protection factor for the mechanical performance of peritoneal Dialysis. Instead radiographic planes 3 and 4 are risk factors.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Radiolucency of the peritoneal dialysis catheter, allow to classify the location of the tip into 4 radiographic planes. Plane 1: below the zone of a line on the head of the femur. Plane 2: is the area above the plane 1 and below a line connecting the two iliac spines. Plane 3: is the area that is above the plane 2 and below a line connecting the upper edge of the two iliac crests. Plane 4: is the area located above the plane 3.

Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Radiographic Plane 1<br>the tip of peritoneal dialysis catheter is located at the bottom of the pelvis, below a line connecting the head of the femur | |
| Radiographic Plane 2<br>the tip of the peritoneal dialysis catheter is located above the plane 1 and below a line connecting the two iliac spines | |
| Radiographic plane 3<br>The location of the catheter tip is on the line connecting iliac spines and below a line connecting the iliac crests | |
| Radiographic plane 4<br>The location of the catheter tip is on the line connecting the iliac crests | |

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| MECHANICAL OPERATION OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER | MEASURE THE TIME THAT RETURNING IN 1 LITER OF SOLUTION AFTER INFUSION PERITONEAL. TAKE IT AS FLUID RETURN FAILURE WHEN A DELAY SAME OR GREATER THAN 20 MINUTES. | TWELVE HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| LOCATION OF THE TIP OF PERITONEAL DIALYSIS CATHETER THROUGH STANDING ABDOMINAL RADIOGRAPHY | RADIOGRAPIC PLANS ARE CLASSIFIED IN 4 LEVEL: 1) BELOW THE HEADS OF THE FEMUR, 2) BELOW  ILIAC SPINES, 3) BELOW THE ILIAC CREST, 4) ABOVE THE ILIAC CREST. | 12 HOURS AFTER CATHETER PLACEMENT, AND THE PATIENT WILL BE OBSERVED BY 1 WEEK |
