Infection Control Strategies and Effectiveness Evaluation in Hemodialysis Care
Journal: Advanced Journal of Nursing DOI: 10.32629/ajn.v5i4.3240
Abstract
In modern medical practice, hemodialysis, as an important renal replacement therapy, is crucial for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, because the hemodialysis process involves the vascular access of the patient, the risk of infection is high, which not only affects the treatment effect of the patient, but also may endanger the life safety of the patient. Therefore, adopting effective infection control strategies are essential to ensure the safety of hemodialysis patients. This paper aims to explore infection control strategies in hemodialysis care and their effect evaluation. By reviewing relevant literature and clinical practice, we summarize various strategies including environmental control, operating procedures, patient education, monitoring and feedback, and evaluate the implementation of these strategies. It have found that these strategies can significantly reduce the incidence of hemodialysis-related infections and improve the quality of life of patients.
