Hi
Thanks for the query.
Cloudy fluid is often a sign of
peritonitis. This can be confirmed by testing the peritoneal fluid after it has been in the abdomen for 2 hours. We need to do cell count, Gram stain and culture.
Your doctor will also suggest the appropriate antibiotics which need to be instilled in the abdomen.
Usually PD is continued during an episode of peritonitis and there is no need to switch to HD
Hope this helps
Good luck
