The continuous nature of this dialytic modality and the absence of acute shifts in pressure and volume parameters is an important differentiation between PD and in-center hemodialysis. However, the burden of hypertension and prognostic association of BP with mortality follow comparable patterns in both modalities. Although management of hypertension uses similar therapeutic principles, long-term preservation of residual diuresis and longevity of peritoneal membrane function require particular attention in the prescription of the appropriate dialysis regimen among those on PD. Dietary sodium restriction, appropriate use of icodextrin, and limited exposure of peritoneal membrane to bioincompatible solutions, as well as adaptation of the PD regimen to the peritoneal transport characteristics, are first-line therapeutic strategies to achieve adequate volume control with a potential long-term benefit on technique survival. Antihypertensive drug therapy is a second-line therapeutic approach, used when BP remains unresponsive to the above volume management strategies. In this article, we review the available evidence on epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension among patients on PD and discuss similarities and differences between PD and in-center hemodialysis. We conclude with a call for randomized trials aiming to elucidate several areas of uncertainty in management of hypertension in the PD population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2215\/cjn.07480618","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,19]],"date-time":"2018-10-19T11:35:13Z","timestamp":1539948913000},"page":"297-305","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":55,"title":["Assessment and Management of Hypertension among Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis"],"prefix":"10.2215","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Vasilios","family":"Vaios","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis Unit, First Department of Medicine, AHEPA Hospital, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Panagiotis I.","family":"Georgianos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis Unit, First Department of Medicine, AHEPA Hospital, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vassilios","family":"Liakopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis Unit, First Department of Medicine, AHEPA Hospital, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8355-7100","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rajiv","family":"Agarwal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Indiana University School of Medicine and Richard L.
