Peritonitis is a common complication of peritoneal dialysis. Peritonitis is associated with significant morbidity, catheter loss, transfer to hemodialysis, transient loss of ultrafiltration, possible permanent membrane damage, and occasionally death .

2022年3月10日 · Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis is a serious complication of PD and prevention and treatment of such is important in reducing patient morbidity and mortality. The ISPD 2022 updated ...

Peritonitis is a common and severe complication in peritoneal dialysis (PD). Detailed recommendations on the prevention and treatment of PD-associated peritonitis have been published by the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD), but ...

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is associated with a high risk of infection of the peritoneum, subcutaneous tunnel and catheter exit site. Although quality standards demand an infection rate < 0.67 episodes/patient/year on dialysis, the reported overall rate of PD associated infection is 0.24-1.66 episodes/patient/year.

Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis is associated with substantial morbidity, contributing to death in up to 8.6% of patients. 1 Peritonitis increases treatment costs and hospitalization events and is a primary reason for transition to hemodialysis (HD). 2, 3, 4 PD-related infection has been identified as a core outcome of critical i...

The ISPD 2022 updated recommendations have revised and clarified definitions for refractory peritonitis, relapsing peritonitis, peritonitis-associated catheter removal, PD-associated haemodialysis transfer, peritonitis-associated death and peritonitis-associated hospitalisation.

2024年5月11日 · Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis represents the leading cause of permanent transfer to hemodialysis (HD) [1, 2]. Its occurrence is strongly associated with an increased risk of hospitalization, death as well as higher healthcare costs and long-term peritoneal membrane disfunction [3,4,5]. Standardization of peritonitis definitions ...

2019年8月23日 · Peritonitis is a peritoneal dialysis-related infection caused by bacteria entering the abdomen from outside the body and infecting the peritoneum. Bacteria may enter the body through the open ends of the PD catheter during exchanges.

2020年7月2日 · Peritonitis is a common complication of peritoneal dialysis that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Peritonitis increases treatment costs and hospitalization events and is the most common reason for transfer to hemodialysis.

Peritonitis is one of the major complications of peritoneal dialysis and remains the primary reason that patients switch from peritoneal dialysis to hemodialysis [1,2]. This topic reviews the microbiology and therapy of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis.
