Abstract

Peritoneal dialysis is not that popular in India as compared to Hemodialysis due to several factors like economic constraints, cultural, social, medical, infrastructure and supplies-related factors. There is a significant increase in the number of chronic dialysis patients globally as well as in India. The search for the reasons for the low popularity of Peritoneal dialysis (PD) among ESRD patients in India can help to rectify the recent challenges faced by patients with PD and that may lead to more acceptance of PD among them.
