Abstract

Introduction: Culture-negative PERITONITIS is a major challenge in the treatment of PERITONITIS in continuous ambulatory PERITONEAL DIALYSIS (CAPD). This study aimed to evaluate the culture-negative PERITONITIS in patients from the Iranian CAPD Registry.Materials and Methods: Data of 1472 patients from 26 CAPD centers were analysed. PERITONITIS was defined as any clinical suspicion together with peritoneal leukocyte count of 100/mL and more.Results: The patients had been on PD for a mean of 500±402 days. There were a total of 660 episodes of PERITONITIS observed among 299 patients (peritonitis rate of 1 episode in 34.1 patient-months). Excluding patients with both negative and positive culture results, there were 391 episodes of PERITONITIS in 220 patients (174 culturepositive episodes in 97 patients and 217 culture-negative episodes in 123). The 1- to 4-year patient survival rates were 85%, 75%, 69%, and 59% for the patients with culture-positive PERITONITIS, and 92%, 78%, 73% and 63% for the patients with culture-negative PERITONITIS, respectively (P=0.34). The technique survival rates were 90%, 57%, 42%, and 27% and 95%, 85%, 74%, and 40%, respectively (P=0.001). On follow-up, there were higher rates of active PD patients, lower rates of PD dropouts, and higher rates of kidney transplantation in patients with culture-negative PERITONITIS compared to those with culture-positive PERITONITIS.Conclusions: In our patients, the prevalence of culture-negative PERITONITIS was high (55.9%). Patient survival with culture-negative PERITONITIS was comparable to those with culture-positive PERITONITIS and technique survival was higher among those with culturenegative PERITONITIS.
