Peritonitis in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2010
INTRODUCTION: Access to hemodialysis is limited in Nepal due to geographical terrain and hemodialysis centers being mostly limited to major city. Therefore, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is likely to be a better option in Nepal.

Peritoneal dialysis-associated polymicrobial peritonitis with slow onset after root canal treatment: the first case and review of the literature [PDF]

BMC Nephrology
Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-associated peritonitis is linked to an increased risk of mortality and catheter removal, with a higher incidence of these risks observed in polymicrobial peritonitis compared with single-organism infection.

Peritoneal dialysis during peritonitis [PDF]

Kidney International, 1981
Peritonitis during peritoneal dialysis is the most frequent complication associated with this dialysis technique. We studied patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis when they were without peritonitis and during episodes of clinical infection. Peritonitis was associated with a significantly decreased dialysate effluent volume, increased absorption of ...

Microbial profile, peritoneal fluid white blood cell count, and outcome of peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis at Indonesian tertiary hospital

Journal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2023
Introduction: Peritonitis caused by peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains a common complication of continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD). The purpose of this study is to determine the microbial profile in CAPD-related peritonitis, the optimal cutoff of white blood ...

Effects of mesoporous SiO2-CaO nanospheres on the murine peritoneal macrophages -- Candida albicans interface [PDF]

Int Immunopharmacol International Immunopharmacology. 2021 Mar 20;94:107457, 2021
The use of nanoparticles for intracellular drug delivery could reduce the toxicity and side effects of the drug but, the uptake of these nanocarriers could induce adverse effects on cells and tissues after their incorporation. Macrophages play a central role in host defense and are responsible for in vivo nanoparticle trafficking.

Computational modelling of peritoneal dialysis: an overview [PDF]

, 2023
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is becoming more popular as a result of a rising interest in home dialysis, lower intrusion in social life and longer preservation of residual kidney function. However, PD has several important drawbacks: small solute clearance is relatively low compared to hemodialysis and technique survival is limited.
