A comparison between oral ciprofloxacin and intra-peritoneal vancomycin and gentamicin in the treatment of CAPD peritonitis . Fifty-one patients were included in a prospective , randomized comparison of oral ciprofloxacin and intraperitoneal vancomycin/gentamicin in the treatment of CAPD peritonitis . Staphylococcal species accounted for 40 % of the isolates with an equal incidence of Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative staphylococci . Although , overall , there was no significant difference between the regimens in outcome , ciprofloxacin was significantly less effective when peritonitis was due to coagulase negative staphylococci .
