Objective To explore the influence of remote monitoring on volume management in patients undergoing automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) at home. Methods Totally, 74 patients undergoing APD at home were randomly divided into a control group(n=37), who received routine follow-up intervention，and an intervention group (n=37)，who received remote monitoring intervention. The intervention lasted 6 months. The volume management related knowledge, volume self-management behaviors, overhydration values, and blood pressure levels were compared between the two groups. Results After the intervention, the scores of volume management related knowledge and volume self-management behavior in both groups were higher than those before the intervention (P＜0.05,P＜0.01), and the overhydration values and blood pressure were lower than those before the intervention (P＜0.01 for both). After the intervention, the above-mentioned outcomes in the intervention group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion Remote monitoring can improve the level of volume related know-ledge and volume self-management behavior in patients undergoing APD at home, and improve volume load.
