CAPD peritonitis
• Peritonitis is a common clinical problem that
occurs in patients treated by peritoneal dialysis
• The incidence of peritonitis varies from center to
center
• During the past decade approximately 1 episode
every 24 patient-treatment-months was
observed
• because of exceptional patient education, as well
as new connector and catheter technologies
• A variety of different regimens have been
proposed based upon these experiences
• Antibiotics have been administered
intraperitoneally (IP), or intravenously (IV), or
orally, and a number of different dosing
regimens have been utilized
• Unfortunately, no single regimen has been
shown in appropriate clinical trials to be most
efficacious.

DEFINITION OF CAPD PERITONITIS
2 out of 3 of the following criteria
1. Abdominal pain
2. Cloudy effluent with
a cell count > 100 cells/ mm3
;
50% of which is PMN
3. Culture positive
Initial Clinical Evaluation of Patient with Suspected
Peritoneal Dialysis-Related Peritonitis
• Symptoms: cloudy fluid and abdominal pain
• Do cell count and differential
• Gram stain and culture on initial drainage
• Initiate empiric therapy
• Choice of final therapy should always be
guided by antibiotic sensitivities
• on many occasions the Gram stain is unavailable,
delayed, or negative for any specific organisms Empiric
therapy is indicated in these conditions
• There is a slight statistical likelihood that the causative
pathogen will be the same as the most recent infection
• If the exit site is infected with pseudomonas or S.
aureus when peritonitis presents, there is a high
probability that the peritonitis is caused by the same
organism
• If the patient is having frequent peritonitis episodes,
then relapse or recurrence with the same organism is
likely.
Empiric Initial Therapy, for Peritoneal Dialysis-
Related Peritonitis, Stratified for Residual Urine
Volume
Antibiotic Residual urine output
< 100 mL/day
Residual urine output
> 100 mL/day
Cefazolin or cephalothin 1 g/bag, q.d. 20 mg/kg BW/bag, q.d.
or
15 mg/kg BW/bag, q.d.
Ceftazidime 1 g/bag, q.d. 20 mg/kg BW/bag, q.d.
Gentamicin, tobramycin,
netilmycin
0.6 mg/kg BW/bag, q.d. Not recommended
Amikacin 2 mg/kg BW/bag, q.d. Not recommended
?vancomycin
• Internationally, the prevalence of vancomycin-
resistant organisms has dramatically increased and this
increase has been particularly evident in larger
university hospitals where up to 14% of enterococci
may be resistant
• Vancomycin resistance has been associated with
resistance to other penicillins and aminoglycosides,
thus presenting a treatment dilemma
• This change in vancomycin sensitivity has prompted a
number of worldwide agencies to discourage routine
use of vancomycin for prophylaxis, for empiric therapy,
or for oral use for Clostridium difficile enterocolitis.
• The major concern is that the vancomycin-
resistance gene is transmitted to staphylococcal
strains, creating an issue of major
epidemiological importance
• It is recommended for use in methicillin-resistant
S. aureus (MRSA) infections and in treatment of
infections due to beta-lactam-resistant
organisms, as well as in treatment for infections
in patients that have serious gram-positive
infections and that are allergic to other agents.
