Abstract
Case description: Case of pneumoperitoneum in a patient on automatic peritoneal dialysis with a dry day. While pneumoperitoneum is not a serious complication may alter the quality of life of the patient, so it is necessary to determine its origin. After reviewing the existing bibliography, we found a case report of pneumoperitoneum on automatic peritoneal dialysis therapy. In addition, other cases with this complication in patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis have been reported, all of them because of errors in the technique. After the nursing assessment, the patient identified some errors in the technique as the possible causes of this complication.
Description of the care plan: The care plan focused on ruling out other complications of peritoneal dialysis such as catheter obstruction or peritonitis, evaluating possible errors in the technique made by the patient,
proceeding with their retraining, and offering emotional support to the patient and the family. The evaluation of the care plan at one week and one month was favorable.
Conclusions: It should be emphasized the importance of personalized training depending on the type of therapy prescribed and the potential complications, so that the patient knows them and can prevent their appearance.
