Abstract
Effective treatment of infections is a growing challenge owing to antimicrobial resistance. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients experience more frequent hospitalisations than the general population and have greater exposure to antibiotics, making them particularly vulnerable to this threat. Over the last decade, we have noted a surge in cases of complicated peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PD peritonitis) caused by antimicrobial-resistant organisms, including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL), AmpC beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and fungi. Practitioners must be alert to these organisms, seek early recognition of these resistance patterns and make timely adjustments in order to avoid delay in treatment that may increase risk of PD catheter removal and technique failure. We present a case of successful treatment of ESBL peritonitis, highlight its challenges, while providing guidance on management of other unusual and complicated PD peritonitis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The efficacy of fluconazole as a prophylactic strategy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on peritoneal dialysis (PD) with prior antibiotic exposure is controversial in the current literature. This study aimed to compare a strategy of fluconazole prophylaxis versus no-prophylaxis for patients in PD on antibiotics for previous episodes of peritonitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing fluconazole prophylaxis with no prophylaxis for PD-related peritonitis. The search was conducted on PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central in January 23, 2023. The outcome of interest was the occurrence of fungal peritonitis (FP). RESULTS We included six studies (1 RCT, 5 observational) with 4515 occurrences of peritonitis, of which 1098 (24.8%) received fluconazole prophylaxis in variable doses, whereas 3417 (75.6%) did not receive prophylaxis during peritonitis episodes. Overall, fluconazole prophylaxis was associated with a lower incidence of FP (OR 0.22; 95% CI 0.12-0.41; p<0.001; I2=0%). Subgroup analysis of studies that administered daily doses of fluconazole also demonstrated a reduced incidence of FP in patients who received antifungal prophylaxis (OR 0.31; CI 0.14-0.69; p=0.004; I2=0%). CONCLUSIONS In this meta-analysis of 4515 episodes of PD-related peritonitis, prophylaxis with fluconazole significantly reduced episodes of FP as compared with no antifungal prophylaxis.

Abstract
This comprehensive review aims to provide a practical guide for intensivists, focusing on enhancing patient care associated with nosocomial peritonitis (NP). It explores the epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of NP, a significant contributor to the mortality of surgical patients worldwide. NP is, per definition, a hospital-acquired condition and a consequence of gastrointestinal surgery or a complication of other diseases. NP, one of the most prevalent causes of sepsis in surgical Intensive Care Units (ICUs), is often associated with multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria and high mortality rates. Early clinical suspicion and the utilization of various diagnostic tools like biomarkers and imaging are of great importance. Microbiology is often complex, with antimicrobial resistance escalating in many parts of the world. Fungal peritonitis and its risk factors, diagnostic hurdles, and effective management approaches are particularly relevant in patients with NP. Contemporary antimicrobial strategies for treating NP are discussed, including drug resistance challenges and empirical antibiotic regimens. The importance of source control in intra-abdominal infection management, including surgical and non-surgical interventions, is also emphasized. A deeper exploration into the role of open abdomen treatment as a potential option for selected patients is proposed, indicating an area for further investigation. This review underscores the need for more research to advance the best treatment strategies for NP.

Association between dialysis effluent leukocyte count after initial antibiotic treatment and outcomes of patients with peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis: a retrospective study. Ren Fail 2023; 45:2258990. [PMID: 37737145 PMCID: PMC10519253 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2023.2258990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients with peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP), It has been regarded as an indicator of deterioration of clinical condition that peritoneal dialysis effluent leukocyte count (PDELC) cannot be restored to normal after initial antibiotic therapy. However, the precise relationship between PDELC on day 5 and the clinical outcomes of PDAP episodes remains uncertain. AIMS To explore the association between PDELC on day 5 and clinical outcomes of PDAP episodes. METHODS This retrospective study was based on the medical chart database of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University. Multivariable regressions were used to evaluate the association between PDELC on day 5 and 60-day mortality, half-year mortality, treatment failure, and the length of stay in hospital with adjustment for confounding factors. RESULTS A total of 549 PDAP episodes in 309 patients were enrolled. The total 60-day mortality, half-year mortality, and rate of treatment failure was 6.0%, 9.8%, and 14.2%, respectively. Compared with patients with normal PDELC, those with PDELC ≥2000 × 106/L on day 5 had significantly higher 60-day mortality (31.1% vs 2.7%), half-year mortality (35.6% vs 5.6%), and treatment failure (46.7% vs 5.7%). In multivariate adjusted regression, the ORs (95%CI) were 6.99 (2.33, 20.92; p = 0.001), 4.97(1.93, 12.77; p = 0.001), and 5.77 (2.07, 16.11; p = 0.001), respectively. Patients with PDELC were 100-2000 × 106/L on day 5 had a higher rate of treatment failure than those with normal PDELC (26.9% vs 5.7%) (OR = 3.03, 95%CI 1.42, 6.46; p = 0.004). After sensitivity analysis, the results remained robust. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with PDAP, increased PDELC on day 5 was associated with a greater risk of 60-day mortality, half-year mortality, and treatment failure.

Abstract
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a widely accepted renal replacement therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Morphological and functional changes occur in the peritoneal membranes (PMs) of patients undergoing long-term PD. Peritoneal fibrosis (PF) is a common PD-related complication that ultimately leads to PM injury and peritoneal ultrafiltration failure. Autophagy is a cellular process of "self-eating" wherein damaged organelles, protein aggregates, and pathogenic microbes are degraded to maintain intracellular environment homeostasis and cell survival. Growing evidence shows that autophagy is involved in fibrosis progression, including renal fibrosis and hepatic fibrosis, in various organs. Multiple risk factors, including high-glucose peritoneal dialysis solution (HGPDS), stimulate the activation of autophagy, which participates in PF progression, in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs). Nevertheless, the underlying roles and mechanisms of autophagy in PF progression remain unclear. In this review, we discuss the key roles and potential mechanisms of autophagy in PF to offer novel perspectives on future therapy strategies for PF and their limitations.

Abstract
Fungal peritonitis secondary to non-albicans Candida is reported less frequently. There are uncertainties regarding the treatment of non-albicans Candida infection (i.e., preferred route or initial drug). The objective of this study is to determine the clinical characteristics and treatment used in cases of peritoneal dialysis associated fungal peritonitis secondary to non-albicans Candida. We report four cases with different clinical characteristics and different routes of administration of the antifungal drug, with no deaths. In all four patients, there were risk factors similar to those reported worldwide, without presenting the route of administration of the antifungal drug as a risk factor, suggesting that the mainstay of treatment is early initiation of the antifungal drug and early removal of the catheter.

Abstract
Background The first case of Taralomyces flavus infection in human and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient after exposure to biocontrol agent fumes is reported here. Case presentation A 77-year-old Thai female farmer with kidney failure presented with peritonitis and PD catheter obstruction from fungal biofilms. The potential root cause of infection was associated with exposure to biocontrol-agent fumes containing pathogen during agricultural work in her garden. This source of infection has not been mentioned previously. Showering and changing clothes right after outdoor activity with a high density of fungal matters or dust should be added to the routine aseptic technique before performing PD bag exchange to prevent the system contamination. Although the patient received early treatment with liposomal amphotericin B, itraconazole, and catheter removal, according to the ISPD Guideline 2016 and the Global Guideline 2021, the outcome was unfavorable. Antifungal susceptibility testing later revealed that the pathogen was only susceptible to voriconazole. Thus, antifungal susceptibility should be tested if the patient fails or slowly responds to the primary antifungal regimen. Conclusions T. flavus peritonitis is reported here after exposure to biocontrol-agent fumes containing the pathogen. This work also alerts and reiterates nephrology peers to be aware of this overlooked source of peritonitis, the exposure to dusty environments, specifically containing biocontrol-agent fumes.

Abstract
Fungal peritonitis is an inflammatory condition of the peritoneum which occurs secondary to peritoneal dialysis. Most cases of peritonitis are caused by microbial invasion into the peritoneal cavity, resulting in high morbidity and mortality. Unlike bacterial peritonitis, little is known on fungal peritonitis. Card9, an adapter protein, plays a critical role in anti-fungal immunity. In this study, by using zymosan-induced peritonitis and C. albicans-induced peritonitis mouse model, we demonstrated that fungal peritonitis was exacerbated in Card9-/- mice, compared with WT mice. Next, we found the autophagy activation of peritonealmacrophages was impaired in Card9-/- peritonitis mice. The autophagy agonist, MG132, ameliorated peritonitis in Card9-/- mice. The result of microarray analysis indicates Malt1 was significantly decreased in Card9-/- peritonitis mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that Malt1 interacts with P62 and mediates the function of P62 to clear ubiquitinated proteins. After overexpression of Malt1, impaired autophagy activation caused by Card9 deficient was significantly rescued. Together, our results indicate that Card9 protects fungal peritonitis by regulating Malt1-mediated autophagy in macrophages. Our research provides a new idea for the pathogenesis of fungal peritonitis, which is of great significance for the clinical treatment of fungal peritonitis.

Abstract
Introduction We sought to evaluate the predictors and outcomes of mold peritonitis in patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods This cohort study included PD patients from the MycoPDICS database who had fungal peritonitis between July 2015-June 2020. Patient outcomes were analyzed by Kaplan Meier curves and the Log-rank test. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model regression was used to estimating associations between fungal types and patients’ outcomes. Results The study included 304 fungal peritonitis episodes (yeasts n = 129, hyaline molds n = 122, non-hyaline molds n = 44, and mixed fungi n = 9) in 303 patients. Fungal infections were common during the wet season (p <0.001). Mold peritonitis was significantly more frequent in patients with higher hemoglobin levels, presentations with catheter problems, and positive galactomannan (a fungal cell wall component) tests. Patient survival rates were lowest for non-hyaline mold peritonitis. A higher hazard of death was significantly associated with leaving the catheter in-situ (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 6.15, 95%confidence interval [CI]: 2.86–13.23) or delaying catheter removal after the diagnosis of fungal peritonitis (HR = 1.56, 95%CI: 1.00–2.44), as well as not receiving antifungal treatment (HR = 2.23, 95%CI: 1.25–4.01) or receiving it for less than 2 weeks (HR = 2.13, 95%CI: 1.33–3.43). Each additional day of antifungal therapy beyond the minimum 14-day duration was associated with a 2% lower risk of death (HR = 0.98, 95%CI: 0.95–0.999). Conclusion Non-hyaline-mold peritonitis had worse survival. Longer duration and higher daily dosage of antifungal treatment were associated with better survival. Deviations from the 2016 ISPD Peritonitis Guideline recommendations concerning treatment duration and catheter removal timing were independently associated with higher mortality.

Abstract
Objective The number of elderly patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) has rapidly increased in the past few decades. We sought to explore the microbiology and outcomes of peritonitis in elderly PD patients compared with younger PD patients. Methods We conducted a retrospective study to analyze the clinical characteristics, causative organism distribution, and outcome of all PD patients who developed peritonitis between September 1, 2014 and December 31, 2020, from Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, China. Patients who experienced peritonitis were separated into elderly and younger groups. The elderly was defined as ≥ 65 years old at the initiation of PD. Results Among 1,200 patients, 64(33.9%) in elderly (n = 189) and 215 (21.3%) in younger (n = 1,011) developed at least one episode of peritonitis. A total of 394 episodes of peritonitis occurred in 279 patients. Of these, 88 episodes occurred in 64 elderly patients, and 306 episodes occurred in 215 younger patients. Gram-positive bacteria were the main causative organisms in elderly and younger patients (43.2% and 38.0%, respectively). Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli were the most common gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, respectively. Fungal peritonitis in elderly patients was higher compared with younger patients (χ2 = 6.55, P = 0.01). Moreover, Acinetobacter baumannii (χ 2=9.25, P = 0.002) and polymicrobial peritonitis (χ 2 = 6.41, P = 0.01) in elderly patients were also significantly higher than that in younger patients. Additionally, elderly PD patients had higher peritonitis-related mortality than younger patients (χ 2 = 12.521, P = 0.000), though there was no significant difference in catheter removal between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that cumulative survival was significantly lower in elderly patients than younger patients (log rank = 7.867, p = 0.005), but similar technical survival in both groups (log rank = 0.036, p = 0.849). Conclusions This retrospective study demonstrated that elderly PD patients were more likely to develop Acinetobacter baumannii, fungal and polymicrobial peritonitis than younger PD patients. In addition, peritonitis-related mortality was significantly higher in elderly patients, whereas peritonitis-related catheter removal was comparable between elderly and younger PD patients. Understanding microbiology and outcome in elderly patients will help to reduce the incidence of PD-associated peritonitis and improve the quality of life.

[PMID: 35327042 PMCID: PMC8950556 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare10030564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
A breakthrough in peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy occurred in 1977 with the development of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Its simplicity, low cost, and ease with which CAPD could be performed on patients at home contributed to the popularity of this procedure. However, there is a need for continuous improvement in building optimal systems for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This research showed the design and construction of a simplified prototype of low-cost automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) equipment that meets international standards to automatically regulate infusion and fluid drainage in and out of a patient with low margins of error. Experimental tests allowed the adjustment of the RPM values concerning the flow rate provided. In addition, thanks to the pressure sensor, it was possible to observe a fluctuation ranging from 9 to 13 kPa, which is within the permissible average specified in the catalogs of medical instruments and equipment. Furthermore, a turbidity sensor was added to decrease the possibility of presenting peritonitis. The results showed absolute values of flow, angular velocity, and pressure that it could deliver for use in APD therapies. Finally, the construction of the APD equipment is presented generally, showing the electronic and mechanical components that constitute it.

Abstract
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 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. New peritonitis categories and outcomes including pre-PD peritonitis, enteric peritonitis, catheter-related peritonitis and medical cure are defined. The new targets recommended for overall peritonitis rate should be no more than 0.40 episodes per year at risk and the percentage of patients free of peritonitis per unit time should be targeted at >80% per year. Revised recommendations regarding management of contamination of PD systems, antibiotic prophylaxis for invasive procedures and PD training and reassessment are included. New recommendations regarding management of modifiable peritonitis risk factors like domestic pets, hypokalaemia and histamine-2 receptor antagonists are highlighted. Updated recommendations regarding empirical antibiotic selection and dosage of antibiotics and also treatment of peritonitis due to specific microorganisms are made with new recommendation regarding adjunctive oral N-acetylcysteine therapy for mitigating aminoglycoside ototoxicity. Areas for future research in prevention and treatment of PD-related peritonitis are suggested.

Characteristics Analysis, Clinical Outcome and Risk Factors for Fungal Peritonitis in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: A 10-Year Case-Control Study. Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:774946. [PMID: 34926517 PMCID: PMC8671457 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.774946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Fungal peritonitis (FP) is a rare but severe complication that can appear in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD). This study aimed to investigate the incidence rate and clinical characteristics of FP, evaluate clinical outcomes between FP and bacterial peritonitis (BP) patients on PD, and especially estimate the risk factors for FP outbreak. Methods: All episodes of FP diagnosed in our hospital from January 1, 2011, to December 31, 2020, were reviewed in this single-center study. FP cases were analyzed and compared with patients diagnosed with BP in a 1:6 ratio matching for case-control study. Patient information, including clinical information, biochemical analysis, and outcomes, was recorded. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression model were used to analyze the risk factors for FP. Results: A total of 15 FP episodes were observed in 15 PD patients, with an FP rate of 0.0071 episodes per patient-year. Seventeen strains of fungi were isolated and identified. Candida was the most common pathogen (15 strains, 88.2%), followed by Aspergillus fumigatus (2 strains, 11.8%). Between the groups, FP group showed a higher rate of HD transfer and catheter removal, and a lower rate of PD resumption in the short-term outcome (all P < 0.01), while no significant difference in the mortality was noted during the whole study period. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that longer PD duration (odds ratio [OR] 1.042, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.012–1.073, P < 0.01), higher serum potassium (OR 3.373, 95% CI 1.068–10.649, P < 0.05), elevated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (OR 1.845, 95% CI 1.151–2.955, P < 0.05), reduced serum albumin level (OR 0.820, 95% CI 0.695–0.968, P < 0.05) and peritoneal effluent polymorphonuclear (PMN) count (OR 0.940, 95%CI 0.900–0.981, P < 0.01) were significantly increased the risk for FP. Conclusion: These results suggested that FP leads to higher rate of catheter removal and HD transfer, and a lower rate of PD resumption than BP, and that additional attention should be paid to hypoalbuminemia, increased serum potassium, long PD duration, and low peritoneal effluent PMN in PD patients.

Abstract
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) related peritonitis is a major cause of technique failure, morbidity, and mortality in patients on CAPD. Its prevention and management is key to success of CAPD program. Due to variability in practice, microbiological trends and sensitivity towards antibiotics, there is a need for customized guidelines for management of CAPD related peritonitis (CAPDRP) in India. With this need, Peritoneal Dialysis Society of India (PDSI) organized a structured meeting to discuss various aspects of management of CAPDRP and formulated a consensus agreement which will help in management of patients with CAPDRP.

Abstract
AbstractApproximately 10 years have passed since the Peritoneal Dialysis Guidelines were formulated in 2009. Much evidence has been reported during the succeeding years, which were not taken into consideration in the previous guidelines, e.g., the next peritoneal dialysis PD trial of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) in Japan, the significance of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), the effects of icodextrin solution, new developments in peritoneal pathology, and a new international recommendation on a proposal for exit-site management. It is essential to incorporate these new developments into the new clinical practice guidelines. Meanwhile, the process of creating such guidelines has changed dramatically worldwide and differs from the process of creating what were “clinical practice guides.” For this revision, we not only conducted systematic reviews using global standard methods but also decided to adopt a two-part structure to create a reference tool, which could be used widely by the society’s members attending a variety of patients. Through a working group consensus, it was decided that Part 1 would present conventional descriptions and Part 2 would pose clinical questions (CQs) in a systematic review format. Thus, Part 1 vastly covers PD that would satisfy the requirements of the members of the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT). This article is the duplicated publication from the Japanese version of the guidelines and has been reproduced with permission from the JSDT.

Abstract
This is the first human infection caused by Hyphopichia burtonii, resulting in peritonitis in a patient on peritoneal dialysis initially diagnosed as sterile peritonitis, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. This pathogen posed a challenging diagnosis, causing low-grade peritonitis and difficulty to culture with standard bacterial broth. Moreover, automated platforms for pathogenic yeast identification could not specify the species, but broad-range PCR targeting rDNA followed by DNA sequencing successfully solved the etiology.

Abstract
Objective: To analyse the clinical manifestations, aetiology, prognosis, and risk factors of fungal peritonitis (FP) in children on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods: Among 322 children undergoing PD at Children's Hospital of Fudan University, between January 2001 and December 2019, FP cases were retrospectively analysed and compared with those of bacterial peritonitis (BP) to analyse the risk factors of FP. Results: A total of 124 cases of peritonitis were treated, including 11 FP cases in 11 children (0.0019 episodes/patient*month) and 113 BP cases in 64 children (0.02 episodes/patient*month). Among the 11 FP cases, 7 cases (63.64%) were caused by Candida and Candida parapsilosis (5/7) was the most common pathogen of Candida. All FP patients were converted to haemodialysis (HD) and did not resume PD during follow-up. Two patients (18.2%) died after 6 months of HD due to heart failure, 2 patients underwent kidney transplant after 2 years of infection, and the other 7 patients were still on HD. The univariate analysis showed the usage rate of antibiotics in the month before the onset of peritonitis was higher (45.45 vs. 15.93%) and the mean serum albumin was lower (31.4 vs. 34.4 g/L) in the FP group when compared with BP group (P < 0.05), while multivariate analysis showed that serum albumin ≤ 30 g/L was an independent risk factor for FP (odds ratio 4.896, 95% confidence interval 1.335-17.961). Conclusion: FP is a rare complication of PD in children, but it is associated with high technique failure. Attention should be paid to hypoproteinaemia and antibiotic use in children on PD.

Abstract
Background Fungal peritonitis (FP) is a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis. We herein describe the second case in Asia of Histoplasma capsulatum peritonitis associated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Case presentation An 85-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who had been on CAPD for 3 years and who had a history of 3 prior episodes of peritonitis presented with intermittent abdominal pain for 2 weeks and high-grade fever for 3 days. Elevated white blood cell (WBC) count and rare small oval budding yeasts were found in her peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluid. From this fluid, a white mold colony was observed macroscopically after 7 days of incubation, and numerous large, round with rough-walled tuberculate macroconidia along with small smooth-walled microconidia were observed microscopically upon tease slide preparation, which is consistent with H. capsulatum. The peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter was then removed, and it also grew H. capsulatum after 20 days of incubation. The patient was switched from CAPD to hemodialysis. The patient was successfully treated with intravenous amphotericin B deoxycholate (AmBD) for 2 weeks, followed by oral itraconazole for 6 months with satisfactory result. The patient remains on hemodialysis and continues to be clinically stable. Conclusion H. capsulatum peritonitis is an extremely rare condition that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Demonstration of small yeasts upon staining of PD fluid, and isolation of slow growing mold in the culture of clinical specimen should provide important clues for diagnosis of H. capsulatum peritonitis. Prompt removal of the PD catheter and empirical treatment with amphotericin B or itraconazole is recommended until the culture results are known.

Abstract
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. Although there is much focus on preventing peritoneal dialysis–associated peritonitis, equally as important is appropriate management to minimize the morbidity of a peritonitis episode when it has occurred. Despite the presence of international guidelines on peritonitis treatment, the evidence base to support optimal peritonitis treatment practices is lacking, leaving the practitioner to rely on clinical experience and extrapolate from across other infection treatment practices. This article reviews common mistakes and misconceptions that we have observed in the management of peritonitis that may compromise treatment success. It also provides suggestions on common controversial aspects of peritonitis management based on the best available literature. Although the use of the word mistakes is somewhat controversial and subjective, we acknowledge that evidence is lacking and have based many of our suggestions on clinical judgment, experience, and available data.

Effects of educational practices on the peritonitis risk in peritoneal dialysis: a retrospective cohort study with data from the French peritoneal Dialysis registry (RDPLF). BMC Nephrol 2020; 21:205. [PMID: 32471380 PMCID: PMC7260816 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-020-01867-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Accepted: 05/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a home-based therapy performed by patients or their relatives in numerous cases, and the role of patients’ educational practices in the risk of peritonitis is not well assessed. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of PD learning methods on the risk of peritonitis. Methods This was a retrospective multicentric study based on data from a French registry. All incident adults assisted by family or autonomous for PD exchanges in France between 2012 and 2015 were included. The event of interest was the occurrence of peritonitis. Cox and hurdle regression models were used for statistical analysis to asses for the survival free of peritonitis, and the risk of first and subsequent peritonitis. Results 1035 patients were included. 967 (93%) received education from a specialized nurse. Written support was used for the PD learning in 907 (87%) patients, audio support in 221 (21%) patients, and an evaluation grid was used to assess the comprehension in 625 (60%) patients. In the “zero” part of the hurdle model, the use of a written support and starting PD learning with hands-on training alone were associated with a lower survival free of peritonitis (respectively HR 1.59, 95%CI 1.01–2.5 and HR 1.94, 95%CI 1.08–3.49), whereas in the “count” part, the use of an audio support and starting of PD learning with hands-on training in combination with theory were associated with a lower risk of presenting further episodes of peritonitis after a first episode (respectively HR 0.55, 95%CI 0.31–0.98 and HR 0.57, 95%CI 0.33–0.96). Conclusions The various PD education modalities were associated with differences in the risk of peritonitis. Prospective randomized trials are necessary to confirm causal effect. Caregivers should assess the patient’s preferred learning style and their literacy level and adjust the PD learning method to each individual.

Abstract
BackgroundInformation related to the microbiology of peritonitis is critical to the optimal management of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD). The goal was to characterize the microbiological etiology and antimicrobial susceptibilities of PD-related peritonitis (PDRP) from 2005 to 2014, inclusive.MethodsThe distribution of organisms in culture-positive PDRP was described for new episodes and relapse infections, and further detailed for monomicrobial and polymicrobial peritonitis. Annual and overall rates of PDRP were also characterized. Antimicrobial susceptibility rates were calculated for the most common and significant organisms.ResultsWe identified 539 episodes of PDRP including 501 new and 38 relapse infections. New episodes of peritonitis were associated with a single organism in 85% of cases, and 44% of those involved staphylococci. Polymicrobial PDRP was more likely to involve gram-negative organisms, observed in 58% versus 24% of monomicrobial infections. Antimicrobial resistance was relatively stable from 2005 to 2014. Methicillin resistance was present in 57% of Staphylococcus epidermidis and 20% of other coagulase-negative staphylococci. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) accounted for only 11% of S. aureus peritonitis compared with 2% in our previous study of PDRP from 1991 to 1998. Ciprofloxacin resistance in Escherichia coli increased from 3% in our previous study to 24% in 2005 – 2014.ConclusionsThis study characterizes important differences in the distribution of organisms in new episodes of PDRP and relapse infections, as well as monomicrobial versus polymicrobial peritonitis. It also shows relatively stable rates of antimicrobial resistance from 2005 to 2014, but some increases compared with our previous study.

Abstract
Background:Peritonitis is a serious complication after invasive procedures in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). Most studies that have investigated peritonitis following invasive gynecologic procedures enrolled small patient populations. This study focuses on the clinical presentation, outcomes, and effects of prophylactic antibiotic use before invasive techniques.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on patients who underwent invasive gynecologic procedures between 2005 and 2015 in a tertiary medical center. Eligible patients were identified and enrolled and their demographic data were collected. The use of prophylactic antibiotics and the outcomes of peritonitis were recorded.Results:Twenty-six gynecologic procedures were performed on 18 PD patients. Seven episodes of peritonitis occurred in 6 patients after invasive gynecologic procedures. Eleven procedures were preceded by prophylactic antibiotic treatment (6 oral cefadroxil, 1 oral cefuroxime, 1 oral clindamycin, 1 intravenous [IV] ceftriaxone, 1 IV ceftazidime, and 1 IV cefazolin). The pathogens were diverse (group B Streptococcus, group D Streptococcus, E. coli, and Enterococcus). All episodes of peritonitis were successfully treated using intraperitoneal antibiotics without recurrence, technique failure, or mortality. The odds ratio of peritonitis in the non-prophylaxis group was 20.29 (95% confidence interval 1.01 - 406.35, p = 0.0103).Conclusion:The use of prophylactic antibiotic treatment considerably reduced the risk of peritonitis after invasive gyne co logic procedures.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fungal peritonitis (FP) is a rare but devastating complication in peritoneal dialysis (PD), accounting for high rates of technique failure, morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to investigate FPs with regard to peritonitis rate, microbiology testing, patient characteristics, clinical features, antifungal treatments, and clinical outcomes in patients on PD. METHODS This single-center study retrospectively reviewed all FP episodes diagnosed from June 1, 2012 to June, 2017. All FPs were matched in a 1:5 ratio with PD patients diagnosed with bacterial peritonitis. Clinical, biochemical characteristics and detailed data on peritonitis episodes were recorded. RESULTS Eleven fungal peritonitis episodes (rate of 0.0067 episodes per patient-year on dialysis) were identified. All FPs were caused by Candida species (identification and antifungal susceptibility testing were performed with VITEK 2® compact system), including C. albicans (6/11), C. parapsilosis (4/11) and C. krusei (1/11). Except C. krusei, no Candida resistance to fluconazole was detected. Compared to bacterial peritonitis (matched cases, n = 55), FP group showed higher rate of previous antibiotic use (p = 0.002), higher total effluent cell count (p = 0.007), and lower serum albumin (p = 0.01), higher rate of infection-related surgery (p < 0.001), HD transfer (p = 0.001), and all-cause death (p = 0.006). High prevalence (≥ 50%) of female gender, anuria, CCI ≥ 4, hypoalbuminemia, anemia, and hypokalemia were also observed in FP patients. More than half of the FP patients presented gastrointestinal symptoms (7/11) and extraperitoneal infection (6/11). Eight (72.7%) patients had catheter surgically removed with a median 5.5 lag days, four (36.4%) patients died within 3 months and six (54.5%) cases led to technique failure. CONCLUSIONS FP results in high rates of catheter loss and all-cause mortality in 3 months of follow-up, candida species were the commonest pathogens in our center. Variations of clinical features and susceptibility patterns were observed. Gastrointestinal disorders maybe a potential risk factor for FP.

Abstract
Backgound Fungal peritonitis (FP) is one of the most important causes of peritoneal dialysis (PD) failure, often burdened by increased morbility and mortality. This study evaluates the clinical course of FP cases that arose between 1983 and 2016 in a single PD unit. Methods We conducted a retrospective observational analysis of FP episodes recorded in the Baxter POET (Peritonitis Organism Exit sites Tunnel infections) registry and clinical records. FP incidence rate, PD and patients’ survival and clinical characteristics of the study population were analysed, taking into account the evolution of clinical practice during the study period as a result of technical innovation, scientific evidence and guideline history. Results Fourteen FP cases (2.8%) were detected. The overall incidence of PD peritonitis was one episode/27 patient-months. Candida parapsilosis was the most frequently (50%) detected yeast. Seventy-five per cent of cases were considered secondary FP. This group experienced 2.6±1.7 bacterial peritonitis before FP, most frequently due to Staphylococcus and Enterococcus species. Most patients were treated with fluconazole for ≥8 days. All subjects were hospitalized for a median time of 25 days. Tenckhoff catheter removal occurred in all cases of FP and all patients were transferred to haemodialysis. Two patients died. From December 2010 to December 2016, no FP episodes were recorded. Conclusions FP is confirmed as a significant cause of PD drop out and increases patients’ mortality risk. Prompt diagnosis of FP, targeted antifugal therapy and rapid PD catheter removal are essential strategies for improved patient and PD survival.

Abstract
Peritoneal dialysis is an effective treatment modality for patients with end-stage renal disease. The relative use of peritoneal dialysis versus hemodialysis varies widely by country. Data from a 2004 survey reports the percentage of patients with end-stage renal disease treated with peritoneal dialysis to be 5%-10% in economically developed regions like the US and Western Europe to as much as 75% in Mexico. This disparity is probably related to the availability and access to hemodialysis, or in some cases patient preference for peritoneal over hemodialysis. Peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis remains the major complication and primary challenge to the long-term success of peritoneal dialysis. Fifty years ago, with the advent of the Tenckhoff catheter, patients averaged six episodes of peritonitis per year on peritoneal dialysis. In 2016, the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis proposed a benchmark of 0.5 episodes of peritonitis per year or one episode every 2 years. Despite the marked reduction in peritonitis over time, peritonitis for the individual patient is problematic. The mortality for an episode of peritonitis is 5% and is a cofactor for mortality in another 16% of affected patients. Prevention of peritonitis and prompt and appropriate management of peritonitis is essential for the long-term success of peritoneal dialysis in all patients. In this review, challenges and solutions are addressed regarding the pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis from the viewpoint of an infectious disease physician.
