Presentation and implementation of the first connected system of automated peritoneal dialysis in France

Abstract

The first system of connected automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) was set up in France in the CHSF. This system allows to collect and transmit the data of APD sessions via a modem and a platform towards the medical team and permits the remote adaptation of the treatments. This implementation required a number of steps on national and regional levels. We present the functioning and the expected benefits of such a system.
