Teitelbaum, I.
- Abstract
The International Pediatric Peritonitis Registry (IPPR) was created to assess and evaluate the validity of the pediatric peritonitis treatment guidelines issued by the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis. The study by Schaefer et al., one of the first to emerge from the IPPR, describes regional variability in the frequency of culture-negative peritonitis and of Gram-negative infections. This analysis is a crucial step in the development of evidence-based treatment recommendations whereby to improve outcomes for the youngest peritoneal dialysis patients.Kidney International (2007) 72, 1305–1307. doi:10.1038/sj.ki.5002529
