The disconnect twin-bag (TB) system was first introduced in Taiwan for use as an exchange system in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in 1995. Following its introduction, the incidence of CAPD-associated peritonitis declined, but the incidence of exit-site infection (ESI) increased. To determine the cause of the increase in ESI incidence after the introduction of the TB system, this study compared the incidence of ESI among patients using the O set, ultraviolet antiseptic (UV) device, and the TB system.
