This study employed a prospective single-dose pharmacokinetic design to assess the pharmacokinetics of IV piperacillin/tazobactam in these patients. Four patients with PD peritonitis who received an IV loading dose of 4000 mg/500 mg piperacillin/tazobactam were enrolled in this study. The concentrations of piperacillin and tazobactam in plasma, peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) and urine were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Non-compartmental methods were used for pharmacokinetic analysis. During a 6-h dwell time for chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), 9.23 ± 4.01% of the piperacillin was recovered in the PDF. This result is greater than that observed in patients without peritonitis in prior research. Piperacillin’s PD clearance (CL<jats:sub>PD</jats:sub>), steady-state volume of distribution ( Vss) and terminal half-life ( t <jats:sub>1/2</jats:sub>) were 5.79 ± 2.55 mL/min, 24.35 ± 11.26 L and 5.74 ± 1.53 h, respectively. These values are also higher than those of patients without peritonitis in a prior study. Eight hours following the loading dosage, the plasma and PDF piperacillin concentrations of all patients (98.25 ± 26.03 and 52.70 ± 22.99 mg/L, respectively) surpassed the Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacterales Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute susceptible breakpoints. In summary, the CL<jats:sub>PD</jats:sub>, Vss and t <jats:sub>1/2</jats:sub> for piperacillin were found to be greater in patients with PD peritonitis than in CAPD patients without peritonitis when compared with the results of a previous study. The IV loading dose of 4000 mg/500 mg piperacillin/tazobactam is sufficient to treat peritonitis caused by susceptible P. aeruginosa and Enterobacterales. The multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of IV piperacillin and tazobactam in this specific patient group should be further investigated.","PeriodicalId":519220,"journal":{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis","volume":"100 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140804273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, few data exist on adverse outcomes associated with central venous catheter (CVC) insertions in urgent-start HD patients. Thus, we sought to compare patient and dialysis-related outcomes in patients undergoing urgent-start PD or HD.Methods:All patients initiating urgent-start PD in a tertiary research hospital in 2005–2018 were included in this retrospective, single-centre, comparative study and matched with urgent-start HD patients of similar age and chronic kidney disease aetiology. All urgent-start PDs were initiated within 72 h after catheter insertion, and urgent-start HDs were performed via a CVC. All analyses were performed at 3 months and at 1 year of follow-up, respectively.Results:Thirty-three patients who commenced urgent-start PD and 58 matched urgent-start HD control patients were included. Altogether, 26 patients (29%; PD: 36%, HD 24%) died within the 1-year follow-up, and patient survival was similar at 3 months (hazard ratio (HR): 1.15, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35–3.81, p = 0.82) and at 1 year of follow-up (HR: 0.64, 95% CI: 0.30–1.39, p = 0.26) between the study groups. There were no differences in the total kidney replacement therapy (KRT)-related infection rate ( p = 0.66) or cumulative first-year hospital care days ( p = 0.43) between the treatment groups. Altogether, 139 CVCs were inserted during the 1-year follow-up. The number of CVCs per patient was associated with the emergence of blood culture-positive bacteraemia and increased cumulative first-year hospital care days.Conclusions:Patient survival, cumulative first-year hospital care days and total KRT-related infection rate at 3 months and 1-year follow-up are similar between urgent-start PD and urgent-start HD patients. Furthermore, CVC insertion rate is associated with incident blood culture-positive bacteraemia and increased cumulative first-year hospital care days.","PeriodicalId":519220,"journal":{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis","volume":"2016 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140804231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to describe the characteristics, management and outcomes of liver abscesses in PD patients from a retrospective review of prevalent PD patients on follow-up at Tan Tock Seng Hospital between 1st January 2016 and 30th June 2021. A total of 11/383 PD patients (2.9%) were treated for liver abscesses. Most were diabetic ( n =10, 90.9%), with a median PD vintage of 541 days (interquartile range: 310–931 days).

PD catheter was removed in eight patients (72.7%), with the most common indications being empirical removal due to intra-abdominal abscess ( n = 5, 62.5%) followed by septic shock ( n = 2, 25%) and refractory PD peritonitis ( n = 1, 12.5%). Only three patients (37.5%) remained on PD, as they did not develop PD peritonitis during their course of treatment. The overall mortality remains high with three patients (27.3%) passing away within 6 months of presentation. Liver abscesses in PD patients is associated with poor technique and overall survival.

Hypertension can be difficult to control with dialysis modalities having differential effects on sodium and water removal. There are two main types of peritoneal dialysis (PD), automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). It is unknown whether one is superior to the other in controlling blood pressure (BP). Therefore, the aim of our study was to analyse the impact of switching between these two PD modalities on BP levels in a nationally representative cohort.Methods:This was a cohort study of patients on PD from 122 dialysis centres in Brazil (BRAZPD II study). Clinical and laboratory data were collected monthly throughout the study duration. We selected all patients who remained on PD at least 6 months and 3 months on each modality at minimum. We compared the changes in mean systolic/diastolic blood pressures (SBP/DBP) before and after modality transition using a multilevel mixed-model where patients were at first level and their clinics at the second level.Results:We analysed data of 848 patients (814 starting on CAPD and 34 starting on APD). The SBP decreased by 4 (SD 22) mmHg when transitioning from CAPD to APD ( p < 0.001) and increased by 4 (SD 21) mmHg when transitioning from APD to CAPD ( p = 0.38); consistent findings were seen for DBP. There was no significant change in the number of antihypertensive drugs prescribed before and after transition.Conclusions:Transition between PD modalities seems to directly impact on BP levels. Further studies are needed to confirm if switching to APD could be an effective treatment for uncontrolled hypertension among CAPD patients.","PeriodicalId":519220,"journal":{"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140603493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
