Interventional

Intervention Type : Procedure/Surgery
Intervention Description : Patients who are admitted to Addenbrooke's Hospital for insertion of peritoneal dialysis catheters will be randomised to undergo the procedure by one of the two methods: 1. Percutaneous closed insertion under local anaesthesia in the ward 2. Laparoscopic insertion under general anaesthesia in the main operating theatre

The failure rates and complications of the two procedures will be compared. Both these techniques are normally done in this hospital. The only additional requirement from the patient is consent for randomisation.

Trial stopped due to poor recruitment.
