Stay.safe. A new PVC free system in long-term CAPD treatment.
Stay.safe is a new PVC free double bag PD system that was introduced two years ago for CAPD. The system has been evaluated by three target groups, patients, nurses and physicians in 2 different studies. In the pilot study stay.safe was compared to the previous system and in the multi centre study, new patients judged stay.safe over a longer period of time. The pilot study showed better handling and function judgement by experienced patients of the new system compared to previous. In the multi centre study the overall satisfaction with the new system including use with disabled patients was very good and this high valuation was maintained over time.
