Abstract :
Background: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is a widely used standard therapeutic modality for renal replacement therapy in End stage renal disease patients. Peritonitis is a common problem in patients undergoing CAPD and represents the most frequent cause of hospitalization, peritoneal catheter loss, frequent touch contamination, technique failure, discontinuation of CAPD, and mortality. Antibiogram is a profile of antimicrobial susceptibility of particular organism. Aim and objectives: With this background the present was undertaken to measure Antibiogram and management outcomes of culture positive peritonitis in patients of end stage renal disease on Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Materials and methods: This was a hospital based retrospective observational study was carried out during the period of 2015-2017 worked on 40 patients in department of nephrology ward at Sri Venkateswara Institute of Medical Sciences Hospital, Tirupati. Result: E. coli was the most predominant pathogen isolated from peritoneal fluid samples. Conclusion: The present study findings suggest that gram negative bacterial infections are the predominant cause for peritonitis over gram positive bacterial infections related peritonitis. With effective antibiotic therapy, over two third of patient’s recovered safe with gram positive and gram negative culture positive peritonitis.
