Primary prophylaxis for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis is linked to antibiotic resistance in the Veterans Health Administration

Bryan D. Badal et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the resistance patterns of peritoneal fluid in patients with a first episode of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) with or without SBP primary prophylaxis (SBPPr), and evaluated national antibiograms. The findings showed that patients on SBPPr had a higher prevalence of antibiotic resistance, higher probability of developing SBP, and longer length of stay. This highlights the need for caution in the use of prophylactic medications to reduce the risk of resistance.
