Percentual de recirculação sanguínea em diferentes formas de inserções de agulhas nas fístulas arterio-venosas, de pacientesem tratamento hemodialítico

The aim of this study was to verify the percentage of recirculation (%R) in patients on hemodialysis in different models of insertion of needles in arteriovenous fistula. Urea concentration was measured in samples of the arterial (A), venous line (V) and blood from the apposite arm (S) 10 minutes later in 8 patients using the classical model (apposite-oriented, 3 5 cm apart needles) as well as in patients with three other different models (8 patients in each group). The percentage of recirculation was calculated according to the formula %R= (S-A) / (S-V).100 . A significant lower percentage of recirculation occurred in the use of the classical model.

Incidência de soroconversão para o vírus da hepatite C após a implementação de programa de prevenção e controle em unidade de hemodiálise

This study aimed at reporting the incidence of the hepatitis C virus as well as the prevention and control measures adopted in an hemodialysis unit. It is a prospective study developed with patients attended from September 1996 to December 1998 in an hemodialysis unit. The consultations from September 1996 to December 1996 were considered the control group and the ones from January 1997 to December 1998 the intervention group. Regarding the period of the control group, the routine of the unit was organized based on the regulation 2042 that systematizes the services of renal therapy. In the subsequent period, complementary measures were implemented. From 1997 to 1998, authors observed the reduction in the number of cases of hepatitis C.This study aimed at reporting the incidence of the hepatitis C virus as well as the prevention and control measures adopted in an hemodialysis unit.
