About this study

Official title: Survenue Des Infections d'Emergence après la Pose d'un catHéter de Dialyse péritonéaLE

Peritoneal dialysis, which appeared at the end of the 1970s, quickly proved its worth both in terms of its effectiveness and of its ease of compliance, which guarantees an improved quality of life. To date there are different modes of application of this technique: Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis, and Automated Peritoneal Dialysis. Whatever the technique used, the placement of a dressing covering the exit site of the catheter is necessary just after the placement of the PD catheter and this so that the site of emergence is kept dry until healing (in general 2 to 4 weeks). Once the emergence site has healed, the technique can be started. Discharge site infections are a major predisposing factor for the development of peritonitis. Numerous studies in different parts of the world have shown that the rates of PD-related infections have steadily declined over the past 10 to 20 years. Several recommendations for the prevention and treatment of emergence site infections have been published by the International Peritoneal Dialysis Society. Several studies nonetheless call into question the recommendations by showing that catheter infection is not linked to the number of risk factors present at the time of catheter insertion, nor to the prescription of antibiotic prophylaxis, nor to the the experience of the caregiver, the antiseptic used or the early dressing change. In addition, only antibiotic prophylaxis at catheter placement is strongly recommended. Regarding the other measures, their relevance is not always demonstrated and their application varies considerably from one center to another. In addition, many authors have sought to establish a definition of catheter infections in order to allow an optimal assessment of their frequency. However, these definitions are not universal and have certain limitations. The objective of this work is on the one hand to better characterize the incidence of infections at the site of emergence in peritoneal dialysis, and on the other hand, in the absence of a definition established according to the recommendations, to use the score de Schaeffer, is in particular the value of this score which would make it possible to define more precisely the presence of an infection.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • QuestionnaireOther

    Patients completing emergence assessment questionnaires at the time of the first dressing placement, as well as at the scheduled weekly placement. As part of a planned repair, the emergence will be assessed at most once a week, preferably at the beginning of the week by the patient. In any other case of dressing change, an emergence assessment will be requested.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Risk of infections on emergence site

    The risk of infections on emergence site of placing a peritoneal dialysis catheter. The infection of the site of emergence is defined by the practitioner as a minimum according to the recommendations: "the presence of a purulent discharge, with or without erythema of the skin at the catheter-epidermal interface" and inducing treatment with an antibiotic .

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Questionnaire in people with End Stage Renal Disease on Dialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon at 2 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Emilie Gaiffe, PhD (+33381218824, egaiffe@chu-besancon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Risk of infections on emergence site (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Aug 2022.
