Esrd Patients

African Americans are disproportionately represented among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). ESRD is managed with a strict routine that might include regular dialysis as well as dietary, fluid intake, and other lifestyle changes. In a disease such as this, with such disruptive treatment modalities, marriage, specifically, and its ties to well-being have the potential to significantly affect adherence to medical treatment and lifestyle recommendations as well as downstream health outcomes such as disease progression and mortality. The authors used data from the Dialysis Morbidity and Mortality Study, Wave 2, of the U.S. Renal Data System Database, a prospective study of 4,000 ESRD patients selected from a random sample of 25% U.S. dialysis facilities, to investigate these research questions. They found that married African American ESRD patients had marginally better outcomes on several clinical and psychosocial measures, which they hypothesize may be attributable to the instrumental and emotional support conferred by marriage.

End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is progressive and irreversible damage to kidney function,which can reduce the quality of life of patients and death due to accumulation of uremia toxins in the blood. Hemodialysis is a temporary therapy used to prolong the life of the patient. The uncertainty of the treatment provides a unique response which became an interesting phenomenon for researchers to conduct research Sethe qualitative strategy for explore the nurses’ experience and to describe it especially in the nurses’ role as educator in hemodialysis care to ESRD patient in Hospital X.Aim of this study to provide an overview of nurse’s experience as educator in ESRD patients during hemodialysis therapy in the Hemodialysis Unit Hospital X. this research used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach has been conducted. The data collection technique used was using in-depth interviews. A purposive sampling was used to recruited the participant and, namely ten nurses were involded in this study with inclusion critearia as follows: (1) work as an executive nurse in HD unit, (2) have minimum Diploma III as basic education level. Data analysis using Colaizzi’s method and then using thematic analysis. Four themes were found in this study: lifestyle changes, uncooperative patients, responsive patients, and patients do not want to stop dialysis. Future research can be conduct in fourth theme concerning withdrawal dialysis in ESRD patients in various perspectives including: ethical perspective and decision making for futile treatment, health coverage policies, and palliative care.

The systemic effects of digoxin toxicity have been well-known. However, there has been no case citing the effects of intrathecal digoxin in light of end-stage renal disease in the elderly. Here, we report on the case of the successful management of accidental intrathecal digoxin administration in an elderly male with end-stage renal disease.
