Abstract

Introduction: The care of the peritoneal catheter exit site is vital because it affects the success and future of peritoneal dialysis.
General Objetive: To analyse infectious complications in peritoneal dialysis according to the antiseptic used to cure the exit site.
Material and Method: Descriptive observational study with retrospective data collection, with a duration of 90 months, from January 2015 to June 2022, in a population of peritoneal dialysis patients. An analysis was made of peritoneal catheter exit site infections and possible complications in the two periods, according to the antiseptic used, from January 2015 to December 2018 and January 2019 to December 2022. The variables collected were the antiseptic used in the two periods described (povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine soap), the rate of orifice infections, and the rate of infectious complications.
Results: Fifty patients were studied. Regarding exit wound infection, a reduction was observed in the chlorhexidine soap group (p=0.02). The rate of peritonitis was higher in the povidone group, although the results were not statistically significant.
Conclusions: Chlorhexidine soap showed a decrease in orifice infections and infectious complications.
