Popis: Infection-related complications in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a leading complication. Our aim was to evaluate the type and natural course of ESI events in a cohort of PD treated in last decade of our PD program. Registry data of ESI events (n=126, in 74 patients) were retrieved. ESI protocols followed standard international guidelines. A systematic quality control is performed. The median follow-up was 29.1 (14.0-47.4) months. In this population the adverse outcomes of TI rate and peritonitis rate was 0.12 and 0.13 patient/year, respectively. Male sex (0.048), older age (0.007) and Staphylococcus aureus (SA) agent (0.006) were predictive of TI while non-optional PD and lower levels of albumin were predictive of peritonitis. After grouping the ESI events according to the date of the occurrence of infection (group 1: 2008 to 2012, group 2: 2013 to 2017 and group 3: 2018) a substantial increase of TI in 2018 was evident (P
