Successful provision of KRT is important; however, no standard nursing education currently exists. The top 50 pediatric nephrology programs from the 2023 U.S. News & World Report and eight Canadian centers were surveyed regarding their KRT programs. Most programs perform KRT in three or more intensive care units (n = 31, 58.5%), use two or more machines (n = 44, 83%), and use two or more anticoagulation strategies (n = 34, 86.8%). There are multiple programmatic models utilized to set up, manage, and troubleshoot KRT. In 96% of institutions, education and competencies are standardized, yet methods vary. The survey reveals significant practice variation across institutions; however, KRT nursing education should be standardized to increase safety and improve outcomes. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: CEU research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
