In this episode of Life as a Nephrology Professional, host, Osama El Shamy is joined by Tom Golper, Olof Heimburger, and Anjali Saxena to discuss the future of peritoneal dialysis. Oftentimes, patients and providers may say that not much has changed in the last 20 years but the panel explains technological advancements made in the design of the machines and equipment used in the delivery of dialysis. Despite all these changes, there can be some skepticism about its future and what more can be done to advance both technology and patient care. Enjoy the discussion on the roadmap forward for peritoneal dialysis.
