Resumen
El número de brasileños en diálisis sigue aumentando, con tasas crecientes de complicaciones como anemia y mal acceso vascular. Esto resalta la necesidad urgente de mejorar las estrategias de atención al paciente con enfermedad renal crónica.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Nefrología; Epidemiología; Salud Pública
Sus antecedentes:
- La Encuesta Brasileña de Diálisis (BDS) anual es crucial para informar las políticas nacionales de salud.; La Sociedad Brasileña de Nefrología (BSN) realiza esta encuesta vital.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Informar los hallazgos epidemiológicos de 2024 de la Encuesta Brasileña de Diálisis.; Comparar las estadísticas de diálisis actuales con años anteriores.
Principales métodos:
- Se distribuyó una encuesta voluntaria en línea a centros de diálisis brasileños.; Se utilizó una muestra aleatoria representativa a nivel nacional de 258 centros de diálisis para las estimaciones de prevalencia e incidencia.; Los datos recopilados incluyeron características del paciente, atributos del centro y modalidades de tratamiento.
Principales resultados:
- Se estimó que 172.585 pacientes estaban en diálisis en Brasil a 1 de julio de 2024.; Las tasas de prevalencia e incidencia fueron de 812 y 249 por millón de población, respectivamente.; Las tendencias mostraron un aumento en el uso de catéter, tasas más altas de anemia, hiperfosfatemia, hiperpotasemia y menor adecuación de diálisis (Kt/V), con una tasa de mortalidad anual cruda del 16,5%.
Conclusiones:
- El número y la prevalencia de pacientes en diálisis crónica en Brasil continúan aumentando.; Las tendencias de deterioro en el acceso vascular, la adecuación de la diálisis y el control metabólico exigen mejoras específicas en la atención al paciente.

01:15Dialysis
Dialysis is a diffusion-based purification process that separates analyte molecules from a complex matrix. This is accomplished by allowing molecules in the solution to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a liquid on the other side. The membrane is usually made of cellulose acetate or cellulose nitrate, and the second liquid must be miscible with the solution. Ions (e.g., chloride or sodium) or organic molecules (e.g., glucose) can pass through the membrane pores, which generally have...
01:27Dialysis
Renal failure occurs when the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste products from the blood effectively. It can be classified into two types: acute renal failure (ARF) and chronic renal failure (CRF).
Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...

01:30Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Peritoneal Dialysis and Hemodialysis
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or those experiencing drug overdose often require extracorporeal methods to eliminate accumulated drugs and metabolites. Hemoperfusion, hemofiltration, and dialysis are the primary techniques to rapidly remove harmful substances without disrupting the patient's fluid and electrolyte balance. For those with compromised renal function, dosage adjustments of concurrent medications may be necessary during extracorporeal drug removal.Dialysis is a process...
01:25Hemodialysis I: Introduction
Hemodialysis (HD) is a medical treatment that artificially removes waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys are no longer able to perform these functions effectively. In this process, blood is filtered through a semipermeable membrane, allowing for the selective removal of waste while preserving necessary components like blood cells and proteins. Hemodialysis is typically performed in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney...
01:24Hemodialysis II: Procedure and Complications
DialyzersA hemodialysis (HD) dialyzer is a plastic cartridge containing thousands of parallel hollow fibers, which serve as semipermeable membranes. These fibers are typically made from cellulose-based or other synthetic materials. During HD, blood is pumped into the top of the cartridge and distributed among these fibers. Simultaneously, dialysis fluid, known as dialysate, is introduced into the bottom of the cartridge, bathing the outside of the fibers. Across the semipermeable membrane,...
01:25Hemodialysis III: Nursing Management
The nursing management of a patient undergoing hemodialysis includes several critical steps, starting with a thorough assessment before the procedure.Before the Hemodialysis ProcedureFirst, record the patient's vital signs—blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature—to establish a baseline. This baseline is essential for detecting conditions such as hypotension that could impact the patient's response to dialysis. Document the patient's pre-dialysis weight, as this measurement...
