Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is a reliable and costeffective
method that offers the advantage of greater higher molecular-weight
substances clearance compared to hemodialysis. However, peritonitis
remains a major complication that leads to increased morbidity and mortality
in CAPD patients. Although a successful diagnosis of peritonitis highly
depends on the isolation of pathogens, in routine microbiology laboratory
practices, identification of pathogen is being a great challenge due to high rate
of culture-negative peritonitis. In order to reduce the incidence rate of culturenegative
among the CAPD patients, this study was aimed to evaluate and
optimize the performance of Tween 80 incorporated media at three different
concentrations (0.1%, 1% and 2%). Of the 121 peritoneal fluid samples
collected from CAPD patients suspected for peritonitis between September
2018 to June 2019 at Hospital Kuala Lumpur, 109 patients (90.1%) were
showed to be fulfilling the criteria for peritonitis proposed by International
Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) guidelines. Among the seven different
culture media used, including Tween 80 incorporated blood agar at three
different concentrations, blood agar without Tween 80, MacConkey agar,
Sabouraud’s dextrose agar and brain heart infusion agar, Tween 80
incorporated blood agar yielded the highest positive culture (23/121) than all
the other standard media. The analysis by Chi Square revealed significant
difference (p <0.001) between the three concentrations of Tween 80 tested in
this study. Among the three concentrations optimized, Tween 80 incorporation
at 0.1% has been the best concentration that support the optimum growth of
all Gram-positive organisms, Gram-negative organisms and yeast cells
simultaneously. The utilization of broad-range PCR using 16S rRNA typing
and 5.8S rRNA typing for both bacteria and fungi identification has significantly increased the positive rate from 15.7% by culture method to 22.3% by
molecular identification. Four additional bacterial species and one additional
fungi was identified by molecular method in comparison with culture method.
The utilization of gene sequencing has improved the rapid identification of
pathogens in culture-negative samples suspected for peritonitis. However, due
to cost constraint as a major limitation in many hospitals, conventional culture
method is still preferred to be the cost-effective and reliable identification
method for the management of CAPD associated peritonitis. The combination
of culture and molecular method has revealed that, the occurrence of Grampositive
bacterial peritonitis (69.6%) was the highest followed by Gramnegative
bacterial peritonitis (21.8%) and fungal peritonitis (8.6%) in CAPD
patients. Majority of the pathogen recovery by both molecular and culture
methods were found to be similar in identification. Therefore, Tween 80
incorporated media has provided satisfactory result in the management of
peritonitis diagnosis. In conclusion, this study suggest that the Tween 80
incorporated media at 0.1% concentration has the potential to be used as a
single medium for the optimum isolation of pathogens in CAPD peritonitis. The
molecular method can be used as a supplementary test to support the culture
result and not as a standalone test for pathogen identification due some
limitations. This approach can be applied in all diagnostic laboratories,
particularly in resources-limited settings to enhance the yield of pathogens in
CAPD associated peritonitis. |
