Summary

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a home-based dialysis therapy and peritonitis is a serious complication in PD. A reliable point-of-care test to detect peritonitis is important for patients to self-detect peritonitis at home as delayed diagnosis and treatment of peritonitis will translate to poor outcomes in PD patients. The study aims to examine the effectiveness of Periplex®, point-of-care test, in the diagnosis of peritonitis in PD patients.
