I-HD is suitable for selected patients starting dialysis and can be maintained for a significant amount of time before transition to TW-HD, with diabetes being a risk factor. Although hospitalization days at 1 year are similar, initiation with I-HD is associated with improved survival as compared with TW-HD or PD. Results of randomized controlled trials are awaited prior to large-scale implementation of I-HD programmes.
