Effectiveness of disinfectants used in hemodialysis against both Candida orthopsilosis and C. parapsilosis sensu stricto biofilms
(2013-05-01)
Biofilms have been observed in the fluid pathways of hemodialysis machines. The impacts of four biocides used for the disinfection of hemodialysis systems were tested against Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto and Candida ...

Spironolactone is secure and reduces left ventricular hypertrophy in hemodialysis patients
(2015)
There is recent evidence that aldosterone play a role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease in dialysis patients, which leads to the opportunity to block its actions for the benefit of these patients. In nondialytic ...
Magneto-actuated immunoassay for the detection of Mycobacterium fortuitum in hemodialysis water
(2016-06-01)
This paper addresses a sensitive method for the detection of mycobacteria in hemodialysis water samples based on a magneto-actuated immunoassay with optical readout. In this approach, micro (2.8 μm) sized magnetic particles ...
Effective Use of Alteplase for Occluded Tunneled Venous Catheter in Hemodialysis Patients
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-05-01)
Despite their propensity for significant infectious and mechanical complications, tunneled central venous catheters (CVCs) have become a common means of vascular access in the world for patients requiring chronic hemodialysis ...
Malnutrition Inflammation Score cut-off predicting mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients
(2017-02-01)
Background Malnutrition is a strong predictor of mortality on hemodialysis patients, especially when it is associated with inflammation. Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) is a simple and low cost tool which assesses ...
Growth of children with end-stage renal disease undergoing daily hemodialysis
(Springer, 2014-03-01)
The aim of this report is to describe the effect of daily hemodialysis on the growth of children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).We performed a prospective, observational study on 24 children with ESRD undergoing daily ...
Eating habits and nutritional status of hemodialysis patients

Isolation and Identification of Environmental Mycobacteria in the Waters of a Hemodialysis Center
(Springer, 2013-07-01)
The use of poorly treated water during hemodialysis may lead to contamination with nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). This study aimed to isolate and identify NTM species in the water of a Brazilian hemodialysis center. ...
