Individuals who do not qualify for peritoneal dialysis typically include those with severe abdominal scarring or infections, such as chronic peritonitis, which can complicate the procedure. Patients with certain anatomical abnormalities, such as bowel obstructions or hernias, may also be excluded. Additionally, those who cannot adequately perform the required self-care or have cognitive impairments that hinder their ability to manage the treatment may not be suitable candidates. Lastly, significant obesity or respiratory issues can further limit eligibility for peritoneal dialysis.
