Wow…I just wondered what my Friends really go through…Wow🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
My dad just had this done and the tech had her hair down and no goggles. Why?
Here are my few additional points for safer cvc cleaning.
1. Proper hand hygiene at least 6 steps as recommended.
2. Change gloves after removing old dressing.
3. Assess exit site for s/s of infection.
4. With new gloves, wrap lumens with alcohol or chlorhexidine wipes. Then start cleaning exit site from inner to outer in a circular motion. Allow contact time for at least 15 secs before covering with new dressing.
5. Never touch key points.(exit site, lumens, tip of syringes.
Really love this info…not a fan of the alcohol base on hand…prefered the WASHING OF HANDS..
Iam now 11 years old I had a kidney transplant and dialysis
This is the dialysis in slow motion.
When I worked at a dialysis clinic, my clinical manager forced me to do the procedure in less than 5 mins for patient prep, and then 5 mins for prepping the machine and 5 mins for assessment and electronic medical record. When a patient shows up by 9:00am for appointment. The patient is expected to be already running in the machine by 9:15am at the same time, I also have to respond to any emergencies, answer phone calls and answer door bells within that 15 mins span. Otherwise, my clinical manager would bring me to the office to be reprimanded and complained.

Not the right dressing for that sort of thing.
Really poor hand hygiene and ex-site care. dialysis patient from Denmark.
Hand-hygiene, while wearing a wedding-ring….is not proper hand-hygiene!
1- Micro-organisms hidden underneath the ring may survive the disinfecting procedure.
2- The ring will increase the risk of perforating the surgical gloves while working or worse, the glove can already be damaged when putting it on.
3- The ring on your finger also increases the risk of compromising the skin underneath, giving micro-organisms a nice entry-port to your body while providing optimal surroundings for them to grow and prosper.
4- wearing a ring increases the risk of hurting either yourself or the patient as it can get stuck/hooked on protruding equipment, iv-lines, parts of the bed, etc etc.
