Abstract

Recommendations for the management of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis in children have recently been developed by an International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) expert committee. The International Pediatric Peritonitis Registry (IPPR) was established in October 2001 as a global consortium of 47 pediatric dialysis centers in order to assess the validity of these guidelines.The IPPR is an internet-based registry collecting data on pediatric peritonitis episodes treated according to the ISPD guidelines. Data on 375 episodes have been collected as of July 2004. DATA ACQUISITION: Detailed data are obtained online on the diagnosis of peritonitis, antibiotic and adjunctive therapy, as well as on possible risk factors and treatment results.Final data analysis of the IPPR will yield extensive information on the treatment and outcome of peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis in children.
