Experimental: Incremental PD - Incremental PD: Commence PD using goal-directed PD prescription =14 exchanges/week for continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) or =21 exchanges/week for automated PD (APD) with no day dwell until an indication for increase in the PD dose (trigger point) is reached.

Active comparator: Full dose PD - Full dose PD: Commence with 24 hours, 7 days/week PD (i.e., CAPD =28 exchanges/week or APD (overnight) with day dwell (i.e., no dry abdomen)).
