According to literature source of study performed between march 2008 to december 2012, to analyze the outcomes of omentum management in pd catheter implantation,a total of 67 pd subjects were enrolled in the study and randomly assigned to receive either regular open insertion (roi group, n = 33) or open insertion with omentum folding (oiof group, n = 34).The primary outcome was defined as pd catheter tip migration with dysfunction.In both groups, all patients received a straight two-cuff pd catheter.In the course of this study, catheter-associated infections occurred with similar frequency in the roi (n = 8; 24.2%) and oiof group (n = 9; 26.5%; p = 0.980), including peritonitis (6.1 versus 8.8%; p = 0.724), tunnel infections (0 versus 2.9%, p = 0.621) and exit-site infections (18.2 versus 14.7%, p =0.623).
