Experimental Sterile Peritonitis
نویسنده
چکیده
Using a rabbit sterile peritonitis model, we compared the penetration of intravenously administered amikacin, gentamicin, and penicillin G into peritoneal exudate. Peritonitis was induced with sterile normal saline, and the peritoneal exudate contained 23,751 ± 3,039 granulocytes 8 h later. Antibiotics were administered intravenously 3 h after initiating peritonitis, and serum and peritoneal fluid concentrations were measured for 5 h. Peritoneal levels of each antibiotic exceeded simultaneous serum levels by 1 h after dose and remained above serum levels thereafter. The maximum peritoneal fluid concentration of amikacin reached 71.2% ± 12.7 of the maximum serum concentration, whereas maximum gentamicin peritoneal concentration achieved 37.1% + 2.7, and penicillin achieved 23.2% + 4.5, of their respective maximum serum concentrations.

متن کاملBacterial Infection as a Cause of Sterile Peritonitis
toneal dialysis (PD) population. Abdominal pain, fever, and cloudy PD fluid usually heralds the onset of infective peritonitis. However, in up to 20% of cases, no organism is identified. In these situations, diagnosis can be made only by excluding a microbiological cause and performing a cytological examination of the PD fluid to determine the cellular or noncellular constituents. This review e...

BACKGROUND Goblet cell carcinoid is a rare variant of appendiceal carcinoid with mixed endocrine and exocrine features. The most common symptom and signs are abdominal pain, acute appendicitis and palpable mass. Additionally, abdominal pain is common in patient on peritoneal dialysis, which may confound the diagnosis in such patient. CASE PRESENTATION We report a 71- years- old woman on perit...
