Summary

This study compared two types of peritoneal dialysis for people with end-stage kidney disease: one done manually during the day (CAPD) and one done automatically at night (APD). 137 non-diabetic adults participated, each trying both methods for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if nighttime dialysis was as good as daytime dialysis at removing waste from the blood, and to check effects on sleep, quality of life, and blood pressure.
