Implication

Prospective cohort study observes declining peritonitis rates and favorable recovery in peritoneal dialysis patients, indicating improved clinical management despite rising comorbidities.

Key Points

Peritonitis rates decreased significantly over seventeen years alongside favorable recovery in most episodes, despite worsening patient age and comorbidity profiles.
Peritonitis rates dropped to 0.41 episodes per patient-year in the final cohort period, while complete recovery was achieved in 76.4% of all episodes.
Prospective cohort analysis of 3,037 peritoneal dialysis cases demonstrates sustained technique viability, supporting wider adoption despite advancing age and comorbid illness.
