*Renal Transplant patients who are on peritoneal dialysis are 99% of the time are given chronic peritoneal dialysis prior to surgery. Following their Renal Transplant they may have delay of graft function, as a complication,and require acute peritoneal dialysis. In this case, I can only capture one task: chronic or acute. Because the acute event is more Relevant, I have been capturing only the acute peritoneal dialysis.
