[Identikit of the patient who chooses the PD. Experience of the Autonomous Province of Trento].

Peritoneal dialysis is a method still underused in Italy. In the Autonomous Province of Trento (PAT) since 2008 has been implemented, with excellent results, a program for the enhancement of the use of this therapy. The most important innovation was the introduction of a questionnaire proposed by nurses to patients in pre-dialysis colloquia.
