Public and patient involvement (PPI) in the design, execution and dissemination of a trial: the BISTRO trial (2025)
Journal Article
Coyle, D., Ormandy, P., Fernandes da Silva, N., & Davies, S. J. (in press). Public and patient involvement (PPI) in the design, execution and dissemination of a trial: the BISTRO trial. Health Technology Assessment, 1-18. https://doi.org/10.3310/DOTR5903

For people receiving haemodialysis, a balance has to be struck between removing sufficient but not too much fluid during a treatment session and maintaining any remaining kidney function they might have. In the BISTRO trial, this study sought to esta... Read More about Public and patient involvement (PPI) in the design, execution and dissemination of a trial: the BISTRO trial.

The future of peritoneal dialysis (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davies, S. The future of peritoneal dialysis. Presented at European Renal Association Congress, Stockholm

Peritoneal dialysis (PD), long established as the leading form of home dialysis, has comparatively good 5-year outcomes and cost-utility analyses have consistently demonstrated benefits to both patients and payers. Future improvements should still be... Read More about The future of peritoneal dialysis.

Introduction: Fluid assessment and management is a key aspect of good dialysis care and is affected by patient-level characteristics and potentially centre-level practices. In this secondary analysis of the BISTRO trial we wished to establish whether...
