Experiences of Indigenous Patients Receiving Dialysis: Systematic Review of Qualitative Studies

Improving the accessibility and cultural responsiveness of dialysis and kidney transplant services in collaboration with Indigenous stakeholders holds promise to enhance the experience of Indigenous patients receiving dialysis.PMID:37730171 | DOI:10.1053/j.ajkd.2023.07.014

Racial Disparities in End-Stage Kidney Disease Outcomes Among Asians and Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders Across Geographic Residence
CONCLUSION: In the Mainland, Asians and NHOPIs had lower mortality vs. White patients, whereas in Hawaii/PIs this survival benefit was diminished in Asians and mitigated in NHOPIs. NHOPIs and Asians in Hawaii/PIs had less transplantation vs. those in the Mainland. Further research is needed to uncover factors contributing to differential ESKD outcomes among Asians and NHOPIs across geographic residence.PMID:37725913 | DOI:10.1159/000534052

Association of psoriasis and stroke in end-stage renal disease patients
CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to prior research in the general population, psoriasis in ESRD patients was not associated with the risk of stroke after controlling for various demographic and clinical parameters. Our finding emphasizes the importance of controlling for a variety of factors in population studies examining associations of diseases and risk factors.PMID:37716600 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2023.09.014

System-Level Strategies to Improve Home Dialysis: Policy Levers and Quality Initiatives
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol. 2023 Sep 6. doi: 10.2215/CJN.0000000000000299. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAdvocacy and policy change are powerful levers to improve quality of care and better support patients on home dialysis. While the kidney community increasingly recognizes the value of home dialysis as an option for patients who prioritize independence and flexibility, only a minority of patients dialyze at home in the United States. Complex system-level factors have restricted further growth in home dialysis modalities, including limited infrastructure, insufficient staff for patient education and training, patient-specific ...

Setting Up Home Dialysis Programs: Now and In the Future
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol. 2023 Aug 21. doi: 10.2215/CJN.0000000000000284. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHome dialysis utilization has been growing in the United States over the past decade but still lags behind similar socioeconomic nations. More than half of dialysis facilities in the United States either are not licensed to offer home dialysis or, despite a license, have no patients dialyzing at home and many programs have a relatively small census. Multiple stakeholders including patients, healthcare providers and payers have identified increased home dialysis use as in important goal. In order to realize these goals nephr...

SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Death Rates Among Maintenance Dialysis Patients During Delta and Early Omicron Waves - United States, June 30, 2021-September 27, 2022
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Aug 11;72(32):871-876. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7232a4.ABSTRACTPersons receiving maintenance dialysis are at increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection and its severe outcomes, including death. However, rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19-related deaths in this population are not well described. Since November 2020, CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) has collected weekly data monitoring incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infections (defined as a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result) and COVID-19-related deaths (defined as the death of a patient who had not fully recovered from a SARS-CoV-2 infe...
