Journal ArticleDOI
A Randomized, Controlled Trial of Early versus Late Initiation of Dialysis
Bruce A. Cooper,Pauline Branley,Liliana Bulfone,John F. Collins,Jonathan C. Craig,Margaret B. Fraenkel,Anthony Harris,David W. Johnson,Joan Kesselhut,Jing Jing Li,Grant Luxton,Andrew Pilmore,David J. Tiller,David Harris,Carol A. Pollock +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether the timing of the initiation of maintenance dialysis influenced survival among patients with chronic kidney disease and found no significant difference between the groups in the frequency of adverse events, infections, or complications of dialysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-Effectiveness of Initiating Dialysis Early: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Anthony Harris,Bruce A. Cooper,Jing Jing Li,Liliana Bulfone,Liliana Bulfone,Pauline Branley,John F. Collins,Jonathan C. Craig,Margaret B. Fraenkel,David W. Johnson,Joan Kesselhut,Grant Luxton,Andrew Pilmore,Martin Rosevear,David J. Tiller,Carol A. Pollock,David Harris +16 more
TL;DR: Planned early initiation of dialysis therapy in patients with progressive chronic kidney disease has higher dialysis costs and is not associated with improved quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Initiating Dialysis Early and Late (IDEAL) study: study rationale and design
Bruce A. Cooper,Bruce A. Cooper,Pauline Branley,Liliana Bulfone,John F. Collins,Jonathan C. Craig,Jenny Dempster,Margaret B. Fraenkel,Anthony Harris,David Harris,David W. Johnson,Joan Kesselhut,Grant Luxton,Andrew Pilmore,Carol A. Pollock,David J. Tiller +15 more
TL;DR: The IDEAL study will provide evidence for the optimal time to commence dialysis and determine the impact of “early start’ versus “late start” dialysis on nutritional and cardiac morbidity, quality of life, and economic cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Early Initiation of Dialysis on Cardiac Structure and Function: Results From the Echo Substudy of the IDEAL Trial
Gillian A. Whalley,Gillian A. Whalley,Thomas H. Marwick,Thomas H. Marwick,Robert N. Doughty,Bruce A. Cooper,David W. Johnson,Andrew Pilmore,David Harris,Carol A. Pollock,John F. Collins +10 more
TL;DR: Advanced cardiac disease in these patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease did not progress during the 12-month study period and planned early initiation of dialysis therapy did not result in differences in any echocardiographic variables of cardiac structure and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Timing of Dialysis Commencement on Clinical Outcomes of Patients with Planned Initiation of Peritoneal Dialysis in the Ideal Trial
David W. Johnson,Muh Geot Wong,Bruce A. Cooper,Pauline Branley,Liliana Bulfone,John F. Collins,Jonathan C. Craig,Margaret B. Fraenkel,Anthony Harris,Joan Kesselhut,Jing Jing Li,Grant Luxton,Andrew Pilmore,David J. Tiller,David Harris,Carol A. Pollock +15 more
TL;DR: Early initiation of dialysis in patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease who planned to be treated with peritoneal dialysis with PD was associated with clinical outcomes comparable to those seen with late dialysis initiation.
