NCT02872038

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of empirical antibiotics of CAPD-associated peritonitis with intraperitoneal, continuous dosing of cefepime monotherapy versus combination of cefazolin and ceftazidime. Patients were randomized to be administered either intraperitoneal cefepime 1 g loading then 250 mg all exchanges (treatment group) or cefazolin and ceftazidime (control group) in the same dose.
