Peritoneal dialysis therapy rapidly expanded in Qatar during the last decade.
Peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis remains the leading cause of morbidity and technique failure.
The objective of this study was to determine the incidence of peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis in Qatar, during a five year study period.
The records of all patients on maintenance peritoneal dialysis from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2007 were reviewed.
Episodes of peritonitis, microbial profile, clinical course and outcome were analyzed.
A total of 241 patients were included, males represented 74%, the mean age was 53 ± 13 years, and 48% of patients were diabetics.
During the study period 118 episode of peritonitis were observed, with a mean incidence of 0.24 ± 0.1 episodes per patient year.
Gram-positive organisms were isolated in 40% of episodes, with Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus hemolyticus being the commonest organisms, isolated in 21% and 9% of infections, respectively.
Escherichia coli was the commonest Gram-negative organism and was isolated in 9% of peritonitis episodes, whereas culture-negative peritonitis represented 28% of all diagnosed infections.
Seventy nine percent of peritonitis episodes completely resolved with the use of intraperitoneal antimicrobial therapy.
Peritoneal dialysis catheters were removed in 19% of episodes.
Peritonitis related mortality rate was 3%, and it was due to Candida spp.
and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Despite its low incidence, peritonitis remained the leading cause of patient dropout.
Prompt diagnosis and prudent management as well as psychological support to the patients remained essential to reduce the incidence of technique failure following peritonitis episodes.
