There is no doubt that dialysis will cause a series of side effects and
infection is one of them. It seems that infection is not a big problem but it
can induce more complications. Thus, the treatment for infection is
important.
What is the reason of infection in dialysis ?
PD is a method of home treatment. All three types of peritoneal
dialysis-Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD), Continuous
Cycler-assisted Peritoneal Dialysis (CCPD) and NIPD-need a small rubber tube
called a catheter. The catheter, a soft, straw-like tube is positioned both
inside and outside of the body to allow dialysis solution into and out of the
abdominal cavity.
Exchanges (the process of filling, dwelling and draining
dialysis solution) must be done carefully because there is a risk of infection
from bacteria on the outside of the body

How to deal with infection in dialysis ?
After the patient got seriously infection they need to stop dialysis,
otherwise more parts will be infected. So the best way to control it is to
choose antibiotic which are easy to combine with protein with little renal
toxicity. After dialysis, you also should add certain does of antibiotic to your
medicine, if it is necessary, reduce the times of dialysis.
Dialysis is a lifesaving treatment, however, with both peritoneal dialysis
(PD) and hemodialysis, there are occasions when a patient may have side effects
from the treatment. So as a kidney disease patient you should pay high attention
to dialysis, if possible you can take some alternative therapies which can help
you live better without dialysis.
