Enhancing Nephrology Care: Comprehensive Training for Nurses in Vascular Access Management
Dr Simon Tada
Abstract: In nephrology, the skillful creation and management of vascular access is essential for effective dialysis care, especially as chronic kidney disease (CKD) prevalence increases in the population. This chapter discusses the importance of equipping nephrology nurses with the skills to manage and perform vascular access procedures, from cannulation to emergency interventions, thus reducing dependency on specialists. By offering in - depth training in vascular anatomy, ultrasound use, and post - procedural care, healthcare institutions can significantly enhance patient outcomes. This approach promotes autonomy in nursing practice and ensures continuous, quality care for renal patients, particularly in emergency scenario. As CKD and other renal diseases become increasingly prevalent, it is imperative that healthcare professionals adapt to meet the growing demand for specialized care. Nephrology nurses must undergo rigorous training that encompasses a wider array of essential skills. This includes specialized classes in assessing patient anatomy, evaluating muscle structure, and utilizing ultrasound technology to identify optimal access sites. As such, nurses should be capable of placing central venous catheters and performing other specialized procedures as part of their skillset, considering the unique demands of nephrology practice. This chapter aims to advocate for enhanced training in vascular access procedures for nephrology nurses, enabling them to perform essential procedures and provide comprehensive care independently, especially in emergency situations.
