Decreasing the Risk of Dialysis-Related Infections: What Patients and Care-Partners Can Teach Us

Fri, 08/01/2025

 

This session highlights several patient perspectives on non-medical factors that could contribute to increased risk of infection in people on dialysis. Clinical vignettes will illustrate four patient perspectives on factors that impact bloodstream infection risk. A roundtable with an interdisciplinary team, including a nephrologist, dialysis nurse, technician, and social worker, will discuss the patient perspectives and share strategies to reduce infection risk for people on dialysis. During the live broadcast session, the interdisciplinary panelists will be in the chat to answer attendee questions in this interactive session.
