Medical vs open surgical PD catheter insertion

Catheter tip migration (mechanical failure) · improving catheter function and clinical outcomes in PD patients

It is very uncertain whether medical changes catheter tip migration (mechanical failure) compared with open surgical PD catheter insertion (very low certainty).
