Most patients in the United States who opt to be on peritoneal dialysis (PD) choose automated PD, where they perform their home PD treatments using cyclers. This study was approved by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Institutional Review Board (IRB-17–02704).

The HomeChoice Pro and AMIA cycler patients had a similar number of PD training days, PD-related telephone/office encounters, and PD-related emergency room visits/hospitalizations. Conclusionsĭespite the difference in features provided between the 2 cyclers, patient overall satisfaction rates were high irrespective of the PD cycler. No difference in terms of patient-reported troubleshooting issues requiring assistance. Higher rate of patient comfort with AMIA, but similar overall patient satisfaction with both cyclers.

Prospective Arm: 32 patients on AMIA and 6 patients on HC. Number of PD training days, Kt/Vs achieved, PD-related telephone/office encounters, and PD-related emergency room visits/hospitalizations were all similar. Retrospective arm: 43 patients on AMIA and 27 patients on HC. Prospective arm: Patients > 18 years old, on Amia or HC for ≥ 3 months between 9/1/19 and 2/29/20 were surveyed on their comfort, troubleshooting, satisfaction and reported assistance needed with their cyclers. Number of office/telephone encounters, PD-related emergency room visits/hospitalizations, PD training days, and dialysis adequacy (Kt/V) were recorded. Retrospective arm: Patients > 18 years old, on Amia or HomeChoice Pro (HC) for ≥ 3 months between 8/1/17 and 1/31/18. Single center study with retrospective and prospective arms. Understanding the effect that different cyclers and their features have on patient treatments and support needs is important. HomeChoice Pro) replaced by more sophisticated and technologically advanced versions (e.g. Cyclers have evolved considerably over time with older versions (e.g.
