1. Glossary

Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD)

With CAPD, the blood is being cleaned continuously, both day and night. The

dialysis solution passes from a plastic bag through the catheter and into the

peritoneal cavity. The solution stays in the peritoneal cavity with the transfer

set closed. After several hours, the solution is drained into a disposable bag.

Then the peritoneal cavity is refilled with fresh solution through the catheter

to begin the cleaning process again. This is a manual type of peritoneal

dialysis (PD) and does not use a cycler.

Continuous Cycling Peritoneal Dialysis (CCPD)

CCPD is a form of APD. It is a continuous therapy in which a cycler performs

exchanges while you sleep. Dialysis solution can be left in the peritoneal cavity

during the daytime, or it can be completely drained before ending the

treatment (referred to as Nocturnal Intermittent Peritoneal Dialysis, or NIPD).

Cycle (Exchange)

In peritoneal dialysis, a cycle consists of three phases: a Fill phase, a Dwell

phase, and a Drain phase. Every APD therapy contains one or more cycles.

Cycler

A mechanical device that performs peritoneal dialysis solution exchanges in

regular cycles. Your HomeChoice/HomeChoice PRO APD System device is a

cycler.

Day Fills

The amount of solution the system delivers to your peritoneal cavity for a

daytime exchange. During the Dwell phase of a daytime exchange, you can

disconnect from the system and have the freedom to conduct your normal

daytime activities. The daytime exchanges are a part of Hi-Dose therapy. See

also Hi-Dose CCPD/Hi-Dose Tidal.

Day Fill Volume

The volume of solution for each daytime exchange. This volume is based on

your prescription.
