Background: In most studies, home dialysis associates with greater survival than facility hemodialysis (HD). However, the relationship between mortality risk and modality can vary by era. We describe and compare changes in survival with facility HD, peritoneal dialysis, and home HD over a 15-year period using data from The Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry (ANZDATA)
