Abstract
Background
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) necessitates renal replacement therapy, primarily through hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD). The results from implementing these treatment methods create ongoing disputes because they alter depending on patient characteristics and healthcare organizations.
Objectives
The research examines how dialysis through hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD) influences survival rates and quality of life and cardiovascular complications and cost-effectiveness in ESRD patients.
Methodology
An extensive review of peer-reviewed articles which covered the time period from 1999 to 2024 has been performed systematically. The research selection process relied on specific criteria that prioritized outcome data comparisons. The assessment included the analysis of pooled hazard ratios for determining mortality and hospitalization risk and patient-reported outcome results.
Results
Current evidence shows no consistent survival advantage of either modality in the general ESRD population. PD maintains the original kidney function better while providing superior value for money and better early outcomes according to patient reports of their quality of life. The choice of hemodialysis is appropriate for heart unstable patients and those in advanced age categories. Effectiveness of modality treatments in ESRD patients depended on geographic factors along with infrastructure conditions.
Conclusion
ESRD treatment stays viable through HD and PD yet the selection of patients and local healthcare environments determine patient outcomes. Patient-specific care plans require inputs from clinical profiles and patient preferences for the selection of optimal therapy options.
