👉Integrated home #dialysis model facilitates #transition from #peritoneal dialysis to self-care #hemodialysis: evidence from our 🇧🇪 cohort at Clin univ St-Luc 🔗 DOI:10.1093/joneph/aajag004 Key message: A “PD first → self-care HD second” pathway is feasible and helps preserve patient autonomy.

Our new #dialysis chairs just arrived : enhanced comfort for our patients : nice renewed sense of harmony in our unit @ clin St Luc #brussels 🇧🇪 Calming light blue tone from the chairs to the storage units, the nursing team uniforms ….. and even the shoes for some of them 💙 @inesdufour.bsky.social

We’ve worked closely over the last 6 months, sharing challenges and learnings in our self-care #dialysis unit. We ´d like to thank you Victoria Van Hove and Wouter Rosseels for your engagement. You’ve shown all the skills for moving in your own program. Now it’s time for a well-deserved break 😊

Had an amazing time in #Valencia for the #EuroPD Congress! 🇪🇸 Inspiring discussions, great interactions, and it was wonderful to reconnect with friends and colleagues from across Europe. Already looking forward to the next edition! #EuroPD #Networking #Nephrology #Valencia

Our DIDO study (Double Icodextrin Dose in older CAPD patients) continues to raise interest! Read “Critical Appraisal of Endpoints and Statistical Strategies in the DIDO trial” 📖 Read here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ek... Great to see ongoing discussion that helps strengthen future research.

🌍💡 Excited to be part of this study on home dialysis trends in Europe: 📈 HHD rising, 📉 PD declining, Belgium shows strong HHD growth. Congrats to Maria Slon, Ann Kramer and all co-authors ! 🔗all co-authors pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40880108/

Thank you for your post. Yes indeed, it’s impressive : all our new elderly patients are now on this DIDo CAPD regimen : 3 bags/day leaving whole day free of manipulations and a short 2-3 hrs glucose dwell in laye afternoon. In older patients, water and sodium removal is the key point !

It was an honor to welcome Dr. Freddy Bampoye at Cliniques Saint-Luc, Brussels. He brought a message of gratitude from the Medical Director of Kira Hospital (Burundi), after the donation of 12 dialysis machines to their center. This support will improve local care for patients with kidney failure.

On ne m'otera pas l'idée que le Belge est l'avenir de l'homme.

The goal of the DIDo Study was really to show that using 2 #icodextrin dialysates a day is a save and efficient approach ; enfanced #ultrafiltration and reduced #glucose exposure ! Even at #CAPD initiation : a paradigm shift in the #PD prescription

Truly a ‘milk-shake’ - very nice explanation and resolution ! #NephSky

‘ Strawberry milkshake ´ dialysate in a Peritoneal Dialysis patient at PD onset ? What is your diagnosis ? ➡️ authors.elsevier.com/a/1lSI0_1y3u... @inesdufour.bsky.social @clemencebechade.bsky.social @lobbedezt.bsky.social @hswapnil.medsky.social @kidneyint.bsky.social

Really interesting ; this study emphasises the influence of genetic variants to explain the great inter-individual variability of ultrafiltration in Peritoneal Dialysis patients even at PD onset together with the emerging role of peritoneal adipocytes and prostaglandins in peritoneal physiology 👏👏👏

Great presentation by @carloberg.bsky.social at the 1st International Meeting on Cellular and Molecular Peritoneal Dialysis Research in 🇩🇪 Kiel on how to reduce glucose absorption in #peritoneal #dialysis patients

Thank you @jtkidney.bsky.social : great meeting, excellent presentations, nice people ….. really happy to be here in Kiel 🇩🇪

Fellow Canadian nephrons: since very few of us will be going to #KidneyWk, we will not have a #CSNinAmerica event, come to Toronto instead!

Superbes photos @niakhaleenkeita.bsky.social 🇸🇳🇧🇪

Absolutely! We are proud of what has been achieved together in 🇸🇳 and we’re ready to take it on together

Thank you, Professor @er-goffin.bsky.social Coming from you, these words are truly encouraging 😁🤩

@praniang.bsky.social and team can really be proud of the work accomplished in 🇸🇳. We are really keen to extend our collaboration. Can #kidney #transplantation be the next step ?

Thank you @niakhaleenkeita.bsky.social for this nice report. It was a pleasure having you with us @ Cliniques St Luc #brussels 🇧🇪. We are sure the extension of the #peritonealdialysis program in 🇸🇳 is ongoing 👏👏👏. @inesdufour.bsky.social @theisn.org @lobbedezt.bsky.social @clemencebechade.bsky.social
