Event Description
|
A peritoneal dialysis registered nurse (pdrn) reported the patient with end stage renal disease (esrd) on continuous cyclic peritoneal dialysis [cc(pd)] for renal replacement therapy (rrt) presented to the clinic on (b)(6) 2017 with cloudy peritoneal effluent fluid, abdominal pain, fever and was subsequently diagnosed with peritonitis.A peritoneal effluent fluid culture was collected, however the sample could not be processed as the lab deemed the sample ¿too old.¿ the patient was treated outpatient with vancomycin (dosage, frequency, route and duration unknown) and gentamycin (dosage, frequency, route and duration unknown).The pdrn reported the cause of the peritonitis is suspected to be touch contamination, as the patient is visually impaired.The pdrn is unable to provide additional information as the patient has been discharged from home therapies to in-center hemodialysis.
