DaVita Dietitian Reference Manual Module 9 - Counseling Skills CASE STUDIES Case 1 Sandy is a 28 year old female patient who is new to dialysis and is having difficulty adjusting to her diagnosis of chronic kidney failure. She has poor vision as a result of poorly controlled diabetes for over 15 years. She has had excessive fluid weight gains between her first two treatments. What is your approach to counseling and what tools would you use? Case 2 Smiley is a 90 year old gentleman who is new to dialysis. He is hard of hearing and speaks little English. He lives with his wife who also has limited comprehension of the English language. His daughter states that he has a diagnosis of multiple myeloma. How would you plan for counseling Smiley about his new diet regimen and what materials would you use?

DaVita Dietitian Reference Manual Module 12--Peritoneal Dialysis CASE STUDIES Case 1 A 38 year old female patient with polycystic kidney disease is here for a clinic visit. She presents with the following labs: albumin 3.5, Hgb 12.1, Corrected Ca 10.8 (3rd time 10.2), Phosphorus 6.9, K 5.4. Her weight is 185 lbs and she is 6'1" tall. She reports a good appetite and weight has been stable. Two months ago, intact PTH was 1972. She has been counseled numerous times on the importance of controlling calcium and phosphorus, however, she loves milk and cheese. She is on Rocaltrol 0.25 mcg/day. She takes Renvela 800 mg as her phosphate binder, using 3 with meals and 2 with snacks, and she is adherent. Her nephrologist has just prescribed Sensipar 30 mg q dinner. What is your care plan for this patient and what nutritional counseling and patient education would you provide? Case 2 A 65 year old man, S/P heart transplant, Hepatitis C and six-month history on hemodialysis is beginning PD. He is…

DaVita Dietitian Reference Manual Module 12-Peritoneal Dialysis DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Identify 3 advantages and 3 disadvantages of peritoneal dialysis compared to hemodialysis. 2. How do the nutritional needs of PD patients differ from those of HD patients? 3. What are the goals for Kt/V for PD?

DaVita Dietitian Reference Manual Module 12--Peritoneal Dialysis 1. 2 3. 4 5 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. REVIEW QUESTIONS True False With PD, there is a greater responsibility for patients to monitor their own dialysis than with hemodialysis. The higher the dextrose concentration in the PD solution, the more fluid removed and the more calories absorbed. PET testing is used to measure peritoneal dialysis adequacy. PD is contraindicated in diabetics due to the high glucose load of PD solutions. Malnutrition is prevalent among PD patients due to protein losses through the peritoneal membrane. This protein malnutrition contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. Sodium and phosphorus are restricted in the diet for PD patients, however potassium intake is usually more liberal than for HD patients. Protein losses are greater during peritonitis. The calories absorbed from dialysate are negligible. Insulin can be given intraperitoneally, if necessary. PD patients are at risk for high triglycerides…
