This is a project to improve ”Over-volume” in nursing care for Hemodialysis patients. During October 1, 1989 to May 1, 1991, for the purpose of nursing care quality improvement and to protect patients' rights, we reviewed patients' records of ”Over-Dry” cases from March, June and September, 1991. We found the number of hemodialysis patients with problems associated with water caused by monitoring inadequancies increased from 25% to 40%. This has resulted in an increase of patients experiencing complications during hemiodialysis treatment, including hypotension, cramps, abdominal pain; and angina. We chose the patients under the following three circumstances: (l) 5% or more over dry weight shown between consecutive treatments; (2) conscious and could express themselves; and (3) have already had dialysis treatment for three months. According to the results, we made cause-and-effect diagrams for a clear observation. One hundred inquiry lists have been collected. By analyzing the results, made a Pareto Charts analysis. We aimed at the following three problems: (1) patients who lacked knowledge of water control; (2) inadequately educated patients: and (3) patients short of medical information environment to solve the problems: Two solutions were determined: (1) Medical conferences were held with patients; and (2) medical brochures, articles; practicing record and check lists were distributed. The result was a reduction from 51.8% to 34.4% of patients with 5% or more of dry weight, the rate of Hypotension during hemodialysis also was reduced from 60% to 40%. This proves the efficiency of this project. |
