Overview

Medical management of peritonitis includes hydration, prevention of septicemia, and correction of electrolytes. Empiric coverage for gram positive, gram negative, and anaerobic bacteria should be initiated promptly while awaiting culture results. Either open abdominal surgery or an exploratory laparotomy is recommended.

Medical Therapy

The general principles guiding the treatment of peritonitis are 4-fold, as follows:

Control the infectious source
Eliminate bacteria and toxins
Maintain organ system function
Control the inflammatory process

Depending on the severity of the patient's state, the management of peritonitis may include:

General supportive measures such as vigorous intravenous rehydration and correction of electrolyte disturbances.
Antibiotics are usually administered intravenously, but they may also be infused directly into the peritoneum. The empiric choice of broad-spectrum antibiotics often consist of multiple drugs, and should be targeted against the most likely agents, depending on the cause of peritonitis; once one or more agents are actually isolated, therapy will of course be targeted on them.
The response to therapy can be documented, if necessary, by a decrease in the PMN count of at least 50% on repeat paracentesis 48 hours after initiation of therapy.
Probiotic supplement (containing Lactobacillus acidophilus among other species), 5 - 10 billion CFUs (colony forming units) a day, for gastrointestinal and immune health.
Probiotics can be especially helpful when taking antibiotics, because probiotics can help restore the balance of "good" bacteria in the intestines.

Empirical treatment for peritonitis

Ceftriaxone 1gm IV Q12H x 5days Penicillin allergic patients: Moxifloxacin 400mg IV/PO Q24H x 5days Patient with serum creatinine >1mg/dl, BUN >30mg/dl or total bilurubi >4mg/dl should also receive Albumin (which may have anti-inflammatory effects in addition to expanding plasma volume) prevents further renal impairment and reduces mortality) 25% 1.5g/kg on day 1 and 1gm/kg on day 3 (round to the nearest 12.5gm) Duration: 5days Variants of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis Community-acquired Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis:^[4] Preferred regimen (1): Cefotaxime 2 g IV q8h for 5 days Preferred regimen (2): Ceftriaxone 1 g IV q12h for 5 days Alternative regimen (penicillin allergy): Levofloxacin 500 mg IV q24h for 5 days Nosocomial Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis:^[4] Preferred regimen: Piperacillin-Tazobactam 3.375 g IV q6h AND Vancomycin 1 g IV q12h for 5 days Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis:^[4] Preferred regimen: Linezolid 600 mg PO/IV q12h OR Daptomycin 6 mg/kg IV q24h Extended spectrum beta-lactamase Enterobacteriaceae Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis(ESBL Enterobacteriaceae SBP):^[4] Preferred regimen: Meropenem 1 g IV q8h for 5-7 days	Mild or moderate secondary peritonitis Ertapenem 1gm IV Q24H Penicillin allergic patients: Ciprofloxacin 400mg IV Q12H + Metronidazole 500mg IV Q8H Severe peritonitis or Immunocompromised patients Piperacillin/ tazobactam 3.375gm IV Q6H Penicillin allergic patient: Cefepime 1gm IV Q8H + Metronidazole 500gm IV Q8H Severe PCN allergic patient: Vancomycin + Aztreonam 1gm IV Q8H or Ciprofloxacin 400mg IV Q8H + Metronidazole 500mg IV Q8H Duration of empiric therapy depends on whether the peritonitis is complicated or uncomplicated: Uncomplicated: Perforation is operated with in 12-24 hours Duration of empiric therapy: 24-48 Complicated: Perforation is operated lately or necrotic/gangrenous appendix is developed. Duration of empiric therapy: 4 days unless adequate source control is not achieved.	Mild or moderate secondary peritonitis^[5] Intraperitoneal therapy is preferred Anuric patient Cefazolin 15mg/kg in one bag + Gentamicin 2mg/kg in one bag loading dose, then Gentamicin 0.6mg/kg in one bag Q24H Patient with urine output > 100ml/day Ceftazidime 1gm in one bag Q24H Sever illness^[6] Systemic therapy is preferred. Initial dose: Vancomycin + Gentamicin 2mg/kg or Ceftazidime 1gm IV or Ciprofloxacin 400mg IV Maintainance dose: dosage level depending on renal funtion Duration: 10-14days

Empiric antifungal therapy
Emperical antifungal therapy is generally indicated in secondary peritonitis excepet if the patient has one of the following risk factors: Esophageal perforation Immunosuppression Prolonged antacid therapy Prolonged antibiotic therapy Prolonged hospitalization Persistant GI leak If the patient is clinically stable and no history of prior long term azole therpy: Fluconazole 400-800 mg IV/PO Q24H If the patient is clinically unstable or patient with history of prior long term azole therpy: Micafungin 100mg IV Q24H
