Patterns of the modality for dialysis treatment remains highly variable across treating DHBs (Figure 4.5). The prevalence of peritoneal dialysis ranged from 9.3% of all ESKD patients at Waitemata to 30.1% at Waikato. The proportion treated with automated PD ranged from 16.8% at Waikato and 22.3% at Taranaki to 5.6% at MidCentral and 5.8% at Auckland. The proportion of patients who did home haemodialysis was highest at Southern (27.5% of all patients) and lowest at Capital & Coast (5.7%) and Northland (6.9%) DHBs. The modalities of treatment at Starship show variation due to the relatively smaller numbers of children treated at this centre. Satellite dialysis was provided to a substantial number of patients at Northland, Waitemata, Auckland, Counties Manukau, and Waikato. The proportion on satellite dialysis at Counties Manukau continues to decrease, while the numbers treated with satellite dialysis at Capital Coast, Waitemata, and Northland appear to be increasing. Regional (Taranaki, MidCentral) and South Island (Canterbury and Southern) DHBs report no satellite facility dialysis treatment. As a proportion of the overall NZ population, Māori and Pacific patients are over-represented in the number of patients treated with dialysis each year, and under-represented in the number of patients who are treated with a kidney transplant.
