Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a home-based form of kidney replacement therapy for people with end-stage kidney disease. It uses the peritoneum — the natural lining of the abdomen — as a filter, allowing waste products and excess fluid to pass out of the blood and into a sterile cleansing solution that is introduced through a soft catheter placed in the abdominal wall. Exchanges of this fluid are performed either manually several times during the day (CAPD) or automatically overnight by a small bedside machine (APD). For international patients coming to India, the key steps are catheter placement, a healing period, and a structured training programme so the patient or a caregiver can perform exchanges independently at home. Once trained, the patient continues treatment in their home country, returning to their nephrologist for ongoing monitoring.
