A service review to assess if innovative intensive phosphate dietary education can help reduce phosphate levels to the recommended range in a hemodialysis population
Conclusion: This education program displayed excellent outcomes with an overall reduction in phosphate levels and an improved phosphate knowledge among our sampled HD population. This education program shows that discovering novel ways of education is crucial to enhancing dietetic practice with renal dietitians best placed to deliver patient specific phosphate education.

Relative risk factors for seropositive hepatitis E virus among blood donors and haemodialysis patients: The pivotal role of primary health care education
CONCLUSION: The relative risk factors of the HEV seroprevalence were gender, age, locality and animal contact. Besides the need of a regular survey for the virus seroprevalence, primary health care physicians can play pivotal role in health education, especially in rural areas of Sudan. In addition, primary health care physicians in Sudan are expected to establish strategies and plans to eradicate and minimise the health impact of HEV.PMID:34568151 | PMC:PMC8415677 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_2441_20

Education in Vascular Access
Abstract The successful creation and use of an arteriovenous vascular access (VA) requires a coordinated, educated multidisciplinary team to ensure an optimal VA for each patient. Patient education programs on VA are associated with increased arteriovenous VA use at dialysis initiation. Education should be tailored to patient goals and preferences with the understanding that experiential education from patient to patient is far more influential than that provided by the healthcare professional. VA education for the nephrologist should focus on addressing the systematic and patient‐level barriers in achieving a functional...

End-Stage Renal Disease in Nursing Homes: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: NH residents with ESRD appear to be a particularly vulnerable population, but current information on their prevalence, characteristics, and outcomes is limited. Further research is needed to provide a better understanding of modifiable predictors of survival and functional decline in this population.

Cases of methanol poisoning among tourists in Indonesia
3 out of 5 stars Methanol poisoning among travellers to Indonesia. Giovanetti F. Travel Med Infect Dis 2013 Apr 6 [Epub ahead of print] Abstract In 2009, 25 people died in Indonesia after consuming samples of the popular local drink called arak (or arrack) that had been contaminated with methanol. Since then, reports of fatal cases of methanol poisoning related to the drink have continued. The author of this paper searched both scientific and popular media databases to identify cases of methanol poisoning associated with ingesting arrack. The time frame was January 1, 2009 through the present. He found 4 cases from biblio...

The relation between Internet and social media use and the demographic and clinical parameters, quality of life, depression, cognitive function and sleep quality in hemodialysis patients: Social media and hemodialysis
Conclusion: Internet and social media use was closely related with quality of life, depression, cognitive function and education in HD patients. Studies are needed on whether Internet use under the supervision of health care professionals will improve clinical outcomes, adherence, quality of life, depression and decision making in HD patients.

Renal unit characteristics and patient education practices that predict a high prevalence of home‐based dialysis in Australia
ConclusionOur data suggest certain pre‐end stage education practices are significantly associated with home dialysis rates above the national average. The consistent above average home dialysis rates witnessed in New South Wales appear to be the result of renal unit culture, education strategies and policies that support ‘home dialysis first’.

Must-read: consider hemodialysis in cases of massive acetaminophen overdose
4 out of 5 stars Extracorporeal treatment of acetaminophen poisoning: Recommendations from the EXTRIP workgroup. Gosselin S et al. Clin Toxicol 2014 Aug 18:1-12. [Epub ahead of print] Abstract These recommendations come from the Extracorporeal Treatments in Poisoning (EXTRIP) workgroup, a project established to provide some guidance on the use of hemodialysis and other techniques in toxicology cases, an area where high-quality evidence simply does not exist. Although there has been some disagreement among toxicologists about the value of this effort, I have found the papers that come from EXTRIP extremely interesting a...

Enhanced Elimination of Dabigatran Through Extracorporeal Methods.
Abstract Several pharmacokinetic studies have suggested that dabigatran possesses a number of ideal properties for expedited removal via extracorporeal methods. However, this practice has not been prospectively evaluated in patients with life-threatening bleeding or requiring emergency surgery secondary to dabigatran-associated coagulopathy. The purpose of this literature review is to evaluate the published evidence surrounding extracorporeal removal of dabigatran in the setting of emergency surgery or life-threatening bleeding. A query of MEDLINE, Web of Science, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, and Google...

Evaluation of the effect of nurse education on patient‐reported foot checks and foot care behaviour of people with diabetes receiving haemodialysis
ConclusionsA single education session can improve the routine checking of the feet of people with diabetes undergoing haemodialysis. The administration of the Nottingham Assessment of Functional Foot‐care questionnaire was associated with improved self‐reported foot care behaviour, reflecting greater awareness of risk in this population.This article is protected by copyright.

Additional benefit of dietitian involvement in dialysis staffs-led diet education on uncontrolled hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients
