Isi artikel

Dialysis has been performed in the home for a long time. In fact, I can remember visiting people on home dialysis with the home care nurse when I was in my first nursing program 30 years ago. The equipment has been simplified and decreased in size, but the responsibilities of the family caregiver remain mammoth. Family members who, prior to the need for dialysis of their loved one, may have never worked with equipment or body fluids are being asked to set up equipment and monitor vital signs.
