Pakistan has an estimated population of 212 million while the incidence of end stage renal disease in Pakistan is 100 patients per million; hence approximately 22,000 patients require maintenance dialysis to sustain life in our country. Remarkably peritoneal dialysis (PD) as a form of maintenance renal replacement is utilized in less than one per cent of these patients.  In the absence of a formal dialysis registry, we place the total number of chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients (CAPD) in Pakistan at approximately 76 excluding holiday patients who are visiting from abroad (*This figure was estimated by enquiring the total number of patients each PD units care in Pakistan. This figure was corroborated with the sole distributor of CAPD fluids in Pakistan.).

ABSTRACTWe report a patient with end-stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis, who developed encephalopathy after receiving a few doses of cefepime. He recovered clinically and electroencephalographically after having discontinued the culprit agent and undergone hemodialysis. This case highlights the importance of promptly recognizing this reversible encephalopathy, which can lead to the avoidance of unnecessary workup, reduce the length of hospital stay, and thereby improve the patients’ outcome.
