The ultrasonic imaging research of nursing care for preventing and treating clinical infection of hemodialysis patients based on smart medical big data is studied. 100 hemodialysis patients were selected from May 2019 to May 2020. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group and routine group with 50 cases in each group. The PWV of common carotid artery was measured by ultrasonic rapid imaging technology, including BS value at the beginning of systole and ES value at the end of systole. According to the effect of preventive nursing intervention of intelligent medical treatment, the MHD group adopted preventive nursing intervention, while the routine group adopted traditional nursing service. The infection rate and quality of life score of patients in both groups were evaluated. The results showed that there were significant differences in BS and ES values between the MHD group and PWV in the normal group ( P < 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in BS value and ES value between MHD patients with plaque and those without plaque ( P > 0.05 ). It is proved that the ultrafast ultrasound imaging technology is safe, simple, noninvasive, nonradioactive, and fast and can automatically and accurately detect carotid PWV. It is expected to become a new imaging method for quantitative evaluation of arteriosclerosis degree in MHD patients. Preventive nursing intervention can reduce the incidence of infection in hemodialysis patients and improve their quality of life. Smart medical treatment has brought us a lot of convenience. As patients, we should change our concept, actively participate in it, and contribute to the development of smart medical treatment.

Although hypertension and congestive heart failure are of the most important causes of death with hemodialysis patients, other cardiac problems such as pericarditis, angina pectoris and arrhythmias, cannot be underestimated. It is of the utmost importance that the nurse should have the necessary knowledge and practical skill in order to render comprehensive nursing care.

One of the most common complications of chronict kidney disease patientsundergoing hemodialysis is intradialytic hypotension. This study aims to identify thefactors that influence the occurrence of intradialytic hypotension in patients with end stagerenal failure undergoing hemodialysis. The study design was cross sectional recruited of81 patients of hemodialysis patients. Data were analyzed using contingency coefficient ,spearman and logistic regression. The results showed a significant relationship betweenhistory of heart disease, intradialytic weight gain and albumin levels and the incidence ofintradialytic hypotension (p <0.05). The most influence variables that influence onincidence of intradialytic hypotension was history of heart disease with OR=3.525. Nurseshave to increase their capability in monitoring factors that influence intradialytichypotension especially in pre, intra, and post hemodilaytic, giving education about waterand dietary consumption. to increase their capability in the provision of nursing care forhemodialysis patients.

Background: Nursing presence is an essential nurse caring behavior of being with the patient. This is particularly true for those with chronic renal disease and who regularly undergo maintenance hemodialysis treatment in the hospital setting. When nursing presence is perceived by patients in a nurse-patient relationship, it is more likely to result in enhanced satisfaction with the quality of nursing care. Thus, it is important for hemodialysis nurses to be aware of the relevance of nurse-patient interactions in planned care considering that these interactions are integral to the extent to which nursing presence is experienced and perceived by patients.Objective: This study aims to determine the hemodialysis nurses’ extent of nursing presence as perceived by patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment in two hospitals in Iligan City, Philippines.Methods: Utilizing the descriptive research design, the study was conducted in two hospitals in Iligan City, Philippines.  A total of 121 hemodialysis patients were purposely selected to determine their perception as to the extent of hemodialysis nurse’s nursing presence utilizing the 25-item Presence of Nursing Scale (PONS) instrument. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis.Result: The overall rating by the hemodialysis patients in both hospitals was “always" on the hemodialysis nurses’ extent of nursing presence with an average mean score of 4.47 in all 25 items of the PONS. The highest rated item which reflects that the nurse cares for the patient as a person had an average mean score of 4.63 (always) while the lowest rated item indicating that the nurse is meeting the spiritual needs of the patient had an average mean score of 4.23 (always).Conclusion: The nurse-patient relationship is enhanced by the presence of nurses who are more responsive and interactive with the patients, resulting in patients who are more satisfied with nursing care. Thus, it is suggested that nurses in dealing with patients of varying backgrounds should consider their unique needs when giving information, explanations, health education and nursing care.

Abstract Background: Social frailty—the lack of a connection to society and infrequent social activities—has been reported to be associated with future declines in physical function in elderly individuals. This study aimed to evaluate both the association of social frailty with the physical function and the efficacy of intradialytic exercise as a therapy for social frailty among hemodialysis patients.Methods: A total of 16 hemodialysis patients in the hemodialysis department of a single medical center were enrolled in this single-center prospective single-arm interventional study. Patients received five questions which asked about going out infrequently, lack of visiting friends, feeling unhelpful to friends or family, living alone, and lack of talking with someone. Those to whom two or more of the above were applicable were categorized as socially frail. All patients were placed into exercise therapy to be performed during their thrice-weekly hemodialysis visits. Participants’ physical function (walking speed), muscle strength (grip strength), muscle mass (appendicular skeletal muscle mass index), and social frailty were evaluated at baseline and after three months of therapy.Results: Four (25%) of the 16 participants (median age 71.5 years, 8 women) were categorized as being socially frail. In comparison to the non-socially frail group (non-SF), the socially frail group (SF) had a significantly lower walking speed (0.70 ± 0.12 m/s vs 1.15 ± 0.26 m/s, p= 0.005) and significantly worse performance on the Short Physical Performance Battery. Three months of intradialytic exercise therapy significantly improved their walking speed, from 1.04 ± 0.30 m/s to 1.16 ± 0.29 m/s (p= 0.003). Intradialytic exercise therapy significantly improved walking speed in both the SF group and the non-SF group. The 2019 coronavirus disease pandemic occurred in the middle of the intervention period of this study, and although it was not statistically significant, the number of socially frail individuals among our participants increased to seven (43.8%, p= 0.248).Conclusions: Social frailty was associated with reduced physical function among hemodialysis patients. Intradialytic exercise therapy improved physical function regardless of the presence of social frailty.Trial registration: UMIN-CTR, UMIN-CTR000038313.

<p><strong>Objective: </strong>To investigate the effect of nursing intervention on the psychological states of hemodialysis patients with uremia. <strong>Method:</strong> 57 hemodialysis patients with uremia who received regular hemodialysis in our hospital were gathered, and were divided into the control group and the research group randomly, between which the control group was treated giving routine life nursing care, while the research group was given psychological nursing care with the same treatment of the control group as a basis. Then, Zung Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were used to evaluate the psychological states of hemodialysis patients with uremia before the intervention and five months after the intervention respectively. <strong>Result:</strong> Three months later, in the research group, the scores of SDS and SAS of those 27 hemodialysis patients with uremia reduced 5.7 points and 5.5 points respectively; the results were significantly higher than those of the control group, and differences were statistically significant. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Reasonable and effective nursing intervention can relieve the anxiety and depression of hemodialysis patients with uremia and can prevent the development of bad psychological factors.</p>
