Brief summary

The Silencia PD (peritoneal dialysis) cycler offers a pediatric (PAED) mode with advanced features such as Time and Volume Optimization (TAVO), supporting precise and individualized treatment. This study evaluates the efficacy and tolerability of Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD) using the Silencia PD cycler in patients weighing ≤ 20 kg and able to tolerate a minimum inflow volume of 100 mL. The primary objective is to determine whether patients achieve a total weekly Kt/Vurea ≥ 1.8.

Interventions

DEVICETreatment with the pedriatic mode of the APD cycler

Patients weighing less than 20 kg will be treated for 4 weeks with APD using the PAED mode of the Silencia PD cycler
