Abstract:
Background: Medicare uses a quality incentive program (QIP) criteria to evaluate care in dialysis facilities and apply monetary penalties on underperforming facilities. Smaller dialysis facilities are likely to be rural and operate on lower profit margin; therefore, such facilities are likely to underperform and face Medicare penalties. The variation in QIP scores by facility size is not yet known. We investigated the association between freestanding dialysis facility size and QIP scores. Methods: Our cross-sectional analysis compared QIP scores across levels of facility size for 5,193 freesta

Abstract:
Abstract There have been few attempts to implement self-management interventions in dialysis facilities. This paper presentation describes four studies that constitute the formative work necessary to inform implementation. Studies one and two examined the relationship between psychosocial factors and kidney disease self-management, finding depression and cognitive decline to undermine self-management behaviors. Study three examined how dialysis patients define and think about self-management and their interest in participating in a self-management program. Among them, 78% affirmed they would p

Abstract:
Difficult behavior exhibited by dialysis patients is a spectrum that includes nonadherence, verbal or physical abuse, and threatening acts. Such behaviors may lead to harmful consequences to the patient, other patients, the facility, and staff and can culminate in involuntary discharge. It is important to recognize that these “difficult behaviors” may be due to underlying psychosocial or medical issues, which places an onus on care providers to explore further. According to the Conditions for Coverage (CfC) for dialysis facilities, it falls upon the medical director to coordinate and oversee p

Abstract:
Hospital readmissions are a major burden for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). On average, one in three hospital discharges among patients with ESRD are followed by a readmission within 30 days. Currently, dialysis facilities are held accountable for readmissions via the ESRD Quality Incentive Program standardized readmission ratio (SRR) clinical measure. However, little is known about facility-level factors associated with readmission. Additionally, unlike other standardized measures of quality in the dialysis setting, incident patients within their first 90-days of dialysis are i

Abstract:
Acute heart failure syndrome has been defined as new-onset or a recurrence of worsening signs and symptoms of heart failure, necessitating urgent or emergency management. The management of acute heart failure syndrome is challenging, given the heterogeneity of the patient population, in terms of the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, prognosis, and therapeutic options. The management of acute heart failure syndrome is a dynamic process, requiring ongoing simultaneous diagnosis (monitoring) and treatment. Pharmacological agents remain the mainstay of therapy for acute heart failure syndrome. However, at all time, during the early diagnostic, etiologic, and therapeutic work-up, non-pharmacologic therapy may be indicated and should be considered. The management of the complex cardiac patient with acute heart failure syndrome and/or (potential) haemodynamic compromise has become a special dimension for specialized myocardial intervention centres, providing 24 hours per day and 7 days per week state-of-the-art facilities for (primary) percutaneous coronary intervention and cardiac intensive care, including mechanical ventilation, ultrafiltration, with or without dialysis, and short-term percutaneous mechanical circulatory support. Through the understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and approaches into the problems of acute heart failure syndrome, one should be better prepared to understand and treat its many facets.

Abstract:
This chapter outlines the management of patients with advanced chronic kidney disease for whom dialysis may not be beneficial or desired. Active medical management without dialysis should be offered to patients through a shared-decision making process as a viable alternative to dialysis. This is important as patients and families wish to consider not only survival, but also symptom control and QoL in their decision to pursue a dialysis or nondialysis pathway. A multidisciplinary team delivering good quality, active, and patient-centered care that combines chronic kidney disease management with the principles of palliative care can help patients achieve good symptom management and quality of life. Active and early planning for the end-of-life phase facilitates appropriate care for patients in acute and/or unexpected deterioration and helps achieve patient and family goals.

Abstract:
Most end stage renal disease patients receive kidney hemodialysis three to four times per week at central medical facilities. At-home kidney dialysis increases the convenience and frequency of hemodialysis treatments which has been shown to produce better patient outcomes. One limiting factor in realizing home hemodialysis treatments is the cost of the hemodialyser. Microchannel hemodialysers produced using compression sealing techniques show promise for reducing the size and cost of hemodialysers. Challenges include the use of a 25 μm thick elastoviscoplastic mass transfer membrane for gasket
