Peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis caused by gram-negative organisms: ten-years experience in a single center

Concerns are increasing about the clinical characteristics of gram- negative bacterial peritonitis for providing reference for clinical diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Description
Summary:Concerns are increasing about the clinical characteristics of gram- negative bacterial peritonitis for providing reference for clinical diagnosis, treatment and prevention. A retrospective analysis was performed examining patients who developed peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis (PDRP) from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2018. Among 898 PD patients, 677 episodes of peritonitis occurred in 344 patients. Over 10 years, the proportion of gram-negative bacterial peritonitis increased from 0% to 26.15% (p = .045). E. coli was the leading cause (38.51%) of the 148 cases of gram-negative bacterial peritonitis. The increase of E. coli peritonitis between the first 5 and the last 5 years was obvious (20.45% vs. 46.15%). The antimicrobial sensitivity of gram-negative organisms to cefotaxime decreased from 71.43% to 55.84% (p = .017). In the gram-negative group, the effluent white cell count (WCC) on the first day was larger (OR: 1.374;95%CI: 1.248-1.563; p
