The types of PD include: automated peritoneal dialysis (APD), which consists of continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD) performed with a machine called a cycler, and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), which is performed manually. PD is a dialysis option wherever home dialysis is offered.
Temporary access devices are plastic tubes (catheters) which are inserted directly into a large vein. More permanent access is obtained by creating a high flow connection between an artery and a vein, typically in the patients arm, which can be hooked up quickly and easily to the dialysis machine.
