Yes, patient is sick with fever and hypotension, very uncommon in ยดsimple ยด peritonitis and presence of air within the cavity ; bad outcome very likely to happen ; save the patient first and also the membrane to restart PD later

I also agree; colonic perforation is likely to explain the whole picture ! IV antibiotics and restart PD later if patient still wanting

Thank you for your post. Yes indeed, itโ€™s impressive : all our new elderly patients are now on this DIDo CAPD regimen : 3 bags/day leaving whole day free of manipulations and a short 2-3 hrs glucose dwell in laye afternoon. In older patients, water and sodium removal is the key point !

It was an honor to welcome Dr. Freddy Bampoye at Cliniques Saint-Luc, Brussels.
He brought a message of gratitude from the Medical Director of Kira Hospital (Burundi), after the donation of 12 dialysis machines to their center. This support will improve local care for patients with kidney failure.

Really interesting ; this study emphasises the influence of genetic variants to explain the great inter-individual variability of ultrafiltration in Peritoneal Dialysis patients even at PD onset together with the emerging role of peritoneal adipocytes and prostaglandins in peritoneal physiology ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
