}BACKGROUND
A systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) with all forms of automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) was performed to assess their comparative clinical effectiveness.
METHODS
The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, EMBASE and CINAHL, were searched for relevant RCTs. Analysis was by a random effects model and results expressed as relative risk (RR) and weighted mean difference (WMD…

APD was associated with a borderline reduction in the likelihood of a first episode of Gram-positive peritonitis compared with CAPD, and with lower rates of culture-negativeperitonitis and higher rates of gram-negativePeritonitis.
Comparison of patient survival and technique survival between continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and automated peritoneal dialysis

APD is associated with a lower risk of technique failure than CAPD, particularly for male patients, and patients aged 50–65 years, with diabetes, without CVD, patients with high or high average peritoneal permeability, or patients initiating PD in an earlier era.

Investigating the relative merits or demerits of APD compared with CAPD concluded that APD can be adapted to the targeted adequacy and is at least as efficacious as CAPD when it is expertly applied.
Similar survival on automated peritoneal dialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis in a large prospective cohort.
- Medicine, BiologyClinical journal of the American Society of Nephrology : CJASN
- 2009
No difference was found in overall mortality and technique failure for APD compared with CAPD in incident dialysis patients as well as Hazard ratios with a follow-up of 5 yr.
The outcomes of continuous ambulatory and automated peritoneal dialysis are similar.
- Medicine, BiologyKidney international
- 2009
Under intent-to-treat, time-dependent, and as-treated analysis, there was little or no difference in risk for death or in technique failure, and the improved chronic peritoneal dialysis outcomes cannot be attributed to a greater use of automated peritoneAL dialysis.
Long-Term Outcomes in Automated Peritoneal Dialysis: Similar or Better than in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis?
- Medicine, BiologyPeritoneal dialysis international : journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis
- 2009
The preponderance of the evidence suggests that peritonitis rates are somewhat lower in APD patients than in patients treated with continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD), and the long-term outcomes of CAPD and APD appear to be similar.
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis versus automated peritoneal dialysis and peritonitis in the short and very long term at risk.
- Medicine, BiologyAdvances in peritoneal dialysis. Conference on Peritoneal Dialysis

A lower P frequency and a trend of less time to first P was observed for APD compared with CAPD, and CPR is a reliable index in the very long term at risk.
Superior survival of high transporters treated with automated versus continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

APD treatment is associated with a significant survival advantage in high transporters compared with CAPD, however, APD treatment are associated with inferior survival in lowTransporters.
Clinical Comparison of Automated Peritoneal Dialysis with Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

This study compared APD with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) to assess the influence of mode of PD on various measures of clinical performance and found no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics.

Automated PD is associated with a lower incidence of peritonitis than is CAPD, while exit-site infection is similarly incident under both modes of therapy.

The quality-of-life studies showed that significantly more time for work, family, and social activities was available to patients on APD compared to those on CAPD, and there was a tendency for less physical and emotional discomfort caused by dialysis fluid in the APD group.

This study confirms that TPD does not improve the results of CCPD and that the urea D/P ratio at 180 min and the creatinine D/p ratio at 240 min of the PET were the parameters that better estimated nocturnal clearances on APD.

Compared with CCPD, CAPD is associated with a slightly but significantly lower risk for development of a first peritonitis episode after 9 months of peritoneal dialysis therapy.

The majority of indicator variables monitored by the PD-CPM have improved since 1995 and PD patients have higher hemoglobins and a greater proportion of patients meet the criteria for adequate dialysis, however, serum albumin values remain marginal and unchanged over the five-year project.

RRF declined rapidly in APD patients whereas it was well preserved in CAPD patients, which may be explained by the less stable fluid and osmotic load together with the intermittent nature of APD and the larger use of hypertonic dialysate.

It is concluded that individual rates of peritonitis were different for patients maintained on either manual or continuous CPD therapy, while the overall rate of peritoneitis was found to be similar for both groups of patients.

Based on the experience, APD may extend method acceptance criteria and reduce the technique dropout rate in PD; however, connection technique may need to be improved in order to reduce the risk of peritonitis from exogenous contamination.
