North Miami Beach, Florida, January 2, 2017 – In the U.S., there are more than 400,000 people relying on hemodialysis care. These patients are at risk of getting serious infections.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has demonstrated that bloodstream infections in dialysis patients could be cut in half by implementing CDC’s Core Interventions for Dialysis Bloodstream Infection Prevention. Dialysis facilities that have implemented CDC recommendations were able to sustain infection reductions over several years. CDC provides dialysis facilities with a package of resources that includes checklists, audit tools, how-to videos, continuing education training, and patient resources to help facilitate adoption of CDC’s evidence-based practices.
We are proud to announce Physicians Dialysis has recently partnered with the Making Dialysis Safer for Patients Coalition to help to reduce the risk of bloodstream infections among hemodialysis patients. The Coalition is a collaboration of dialysis organizations that share the common goal of promoting the use of CDC recommendations and tools to improve patient safety nationwide.
