Gram-negative peritonitis--the Achilles heel of peritoneal dialysis?
Perit Dial Int.
2007 Jun.
Abstract
Peritonitis caused by gram-negative bacteria is a serious complication of peritoneal dialysis. Antibiotic resistance is common, and response to medical treatment is often poor. In the present article, we review recent advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment of this serious condition.
