Abstract:
Abstract In the 21st century, renal failure is a chronic disease that affects several millions people in France and around 600 millions worldwide. Its prevalence in the general population increases with the lengthening of the life expectancy that characterizes the developed countries and which begins to appear in the developing countries. Chronic hemodialysis is a treatment that saved many children and young adults in the 20th century whose kidneys were destroyed by several infectious and toxic agents and by untreated malignant hypertension. These causes have been controlled by hygiene measures, anti-infective agents or protective pharmacological agents of the cardiovascular system. Today the causes of end stage renal failure are dominated by degenerative diseases due to aging, such as diabetes and chronic vascular disease. The prevention of the worsening of chronic renal failure is now possible due to better control of high blood pressure and diabetes which are the two main causes of kidney destruction. Hemodialysis treatment cannot always be relayed by renal transplantation. Many patients remain on chronic hemodialysis until they die. It is important to adapt the conditions of treatment to the social life of patients affected by this chronic disease so that these are the best possible. This is the goal of telemedicine that allows to remotely monitor the main clinical and biological factors associated with the worsening of the disease. Teledialysis (hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis) allows to perform dialysis sessions at home or at the nearest in home substitutes (nursing home) or in satellite units of hemodialysis. Similarly, when the patient is transplanted, it makes possible to either lighten or intensify the surveillance according to the risk or not of graft rejection through home teleconsultation.The tools of the digital era such as telemedicine, health connected with connected objects and mobile apps for medical purposes, the performance of which is increasing with the algorithms of artificial intelligence (machine learning, deep learning), can improve the relationship between the patient and his doctor. An ethical reflection must be associated with all these innovations. New exercise of the medicine will be greatly enriched due to medical time more devoted to the relationship with the patient. The new care organizations made possible by digital technologies must be taught to the new generations of nephrologists.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to highlight the meaning of home dialysis as experienced by patients with chronic renal failure. The research design was influenced by Ricoeur´s phenomenology. Nineteen patients from a Brazilian public hospital were interviewed, from May to September 2009. Interviews were guided by the question: "Tell me about your experiences lived undergoing PD". Findings unveiled the patients' perception of the drastic changes in their existence, consequent to disease and treatment; and the perception of themselves in that process. The feeling of anguish, physical pain and deprivations were part of living that condition. They foresee an uncertain future, depending on the expertise of health care providers and the demands on support of significant others. Findings suggest that individual aspects of patients' experiences must be considered if health care providers are to facilitate positive health outcomes.

Abstract:
BackgroundInter-hospital transfer (IHT, the transfer of patients between hospitals) occurs regularly and exposes patients to risks of discontinuity of care, though outcomes of transferred patients remains largely understudied.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between IHT and healthcare utilisation and clinical outcomes.DesignRetrospective cohort.SettingCMS 2013 100 % Master Beneficiary Summary and Inpatient claims files merged with 2013 American Hospital Association data.ParticipantsBeneficiaries≥age 65 enrolled in Medicare A and B, with an acute care hospitalisation claim in 2013 and 1 of 15 top disease categories.Main outcome measuresCost of hospitalisation, length of stay (LOS) (of entire hospitalisation), discharge home, 3 -day and 30- day mortality, in transferred vs non-transferred patients.ResultsThe final cohort consisted of 53 420 transferred patients and 53 420 propensity-score matched non-transferred patients. Across all 15 disease categories, IHT was associated with significantly higher costs, longer LOS and lower odds of discharge home. Additionally, IHT was associated with lower propensity-matched odds of 3-day and/or 30- day mortality for some disease categories (acute myocardial infarction, stroke, sepsis, respiratory disease) and higher propensity-matched odds of mortality for other disease categories (oesophageal/gastrointestinal disease, renal failure, congestive heart failure, pneumonia, renal failure, chronic obstructivepulmonary disease, hip fracture/dislocation, urinary tract infection and metabolic disease).ConclusionsIn this nationally representative study of Medicare beneficiaries, IHT was associated with higher costs, longer LOS and lower odds of discharge home, but was differentially associated with odds of early death and 30 -day mortality depending on patients’ disease category. These findings demonstrate heterogeneity among transferred patients depending on the diagnosis, presenting a nuanced assessment of this complex care transition.

Abstract:
Introduction: Erythropoietic agent as standard practice for anemia treatment, which has a function to increase the value of hemoglobin (Hb) to 12 g/dl in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), who receiving dialysis treatment. The use of erythropoietin has to keep of the iron/Fe amount in the body. Family who have a duty of care should have knowledge, attitude, and behavior to maintain patient’s Hb by giving support to the patient to obey the Fe diet. The aimed of this study was to investigate the effect of family centered care approach in management Fe diet toward family’s behaviour in maintenance Hb level of CRF patients in hemodialysis ward, Gambiran Hospital, Kediri.Method: This study was used a pre experimental design. Total sample were 10 respondents, who met to inclusion criteria. The independent variables were knowledge, attitude, and psychomotor of family in maintenance of Hb level in CRF’s patients. The dependent variable was Fe diet management with family centered care approach. Data was collected by using a structured questionnaire and home visit observation.Result: Data was analyzed by using Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test with significance level α≤0.05. Results showed that Fe diet management with family centered care approach took effect to family’s knowledge (p=0.011), family’s attitude (p=0.005) and family’s psychomotor (p=0.005) in maintenance Hb level of CRF patients.Conclusion: Family’s knowledge, attitude, and psychomotor were effected by experiences during the care of a patient, not affordable to access information and patient’s own decision. The strengths and weaknesses in the family to got a better plan of care can be made by discuss and sharing among researcher, patient and his family. It can be concluded that Fe diet management with family centered care approach took effect to family’s behaviour. Further studies should involve larger respondents and better measurement tools to obtain more accurate results.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by sickled red blood cells that can cause severely painful vaso-occlusive crises. These crises can cause damage to multiple organs and bring about additional chronic disease, such as avascular necrosis, leg ulcers, pulmonary hypertension, and renal failure. While there are options for disease modification, these are not effective if patients (pts) cannot attend regular doctor visits for their condition to be monitored and for medications to be adjusted. Obstacles to obtaining outpatient primary care include physical disability, environmental factors, transportation, and psychosocial factors. Impaired access to primary care leads to poor clinical outcomes in chronic diseases, such as SCD. This study was conducted to help pts with SCD who had the most barriers to obtaining outpatient primary care. Home based primary care has proven beneficial for pts with chronic illnesses in the past. Utilizing this method, a physician meets with pts in their homes to manage both acute and chronic illnesses. This eliminates many potential barriers for pts with difficulty attending office visits and would provide continuity of care. It also allows physicians to observe other potential factors that could undermine the treatment plans for these pts, and get the correct member of the team to intervene more efficiently. Methods: Outcomes were measured for patient quality of care and health service utilization, both one year prior to and one year after the home visits began. Data was collected from a chart review and included the number of primary care visits, day hospital referrals, and emergency department visits. SCD specific immunizations and the number of prescription refills were also noted. McNemar's test and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used to compare binary and continuous outcomes, respectively, during the years prior to and after home based primary care began. Results: There were 23 SCD pts enrolled in this study, with 13 pts (69% female, 31% male) having completed one full year of home visits. These pts ranged from 26 to 66 years old. Comorbidities include one patient with a history of a myocardial infarction (MI) and two with diabetes mellitus. Other medical history noted were: acute chest syndrome (62%), thrombosis (62%), avascular necrosis (46%), retinopathy (46%), depression (38%), kidney disease (31%), hypertension (31%), pulmonary hypertension (23%), stroke (23%), and iron overload (15%). Most pts had received transfusions (92%), and 77% had taken hydroxyurea. Pts received a median number of 11 home visits (range 7-15) during the 1-year program in which they received home based primary care. The median number of new long term prescriptions increased significantly (p = 0.04) from 1 to 3. Five pts not previously receiving PVC-13 vaccine started to receive it after the initiation of the home visit program (p = 0.06). The total number of immunizations (p = 0.09), months with prescription refills (p = 0.08) both increased slightly. There was no change in the number of new short term prescriptions, breast or colon cancer screening rates, nor influenza, PVC-23, or MenAWCY immunization rates. The median number of reported vaso-occlusive crises per patient decreased from 8 per year to 5 (p = 0.69), and the median number of emergency department visits per patient decreased from 6 visits per year to 3 visits per year (p = 0.80). Conclusion: Overall, home based primary care seems to be a promising alternative for pts with SCD. It had a significant impact on patient quality of care and may improve prescription adherence, but more data are needed to determine if it has an effect on healthcare utilization for pts with SCD.

Abstract:
Diabetes is a frequently occurring chronic metabolic disease that is characterized by a high blood glucose levels. If left unchecked, it can lead to severe functional impairments such as blindness, renal failure, and coronary artery disease. Approximately 463 million adults (20-79 years) are living with diabetes; by 2045 this will rise to 700 million. Material and method: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in National Institute of Diabetes and Endocrinology, Dow University Hospital, Ojha campus. Patients who had T2DM, and were above 35 years of age were included in the study. Anthropometric measurements were recorded, and the remaining data was collected via a self-reporting questionnaire. Results and discussions: In this study n=55(36.2%) participants were male and n=97(63.8%) were female, with the average age of 52.9 years, and an average BMI of 29.5kg/m2. The mean HBA1C of those diabetic patients was 8.8, and average duration of diabetes of our sample was 6.7 years. Prevalence of MSK disorders was 55.3%. Conclusions: There is a high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders among diabetic pa-tients. There was poor knowledge that upper limb musculoskeletal problems could occur due to diabetes, and a small percentage of patients sought physical therapy treatment for these disor-ders.

Abstract:
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) introduces physical, psychological, social, emotional and spiritual challenges into patients’ lives. Spirituality has been found to contribute to improved health outcomes, mainly in the areas of quality of life (QOL) and well-being. No studies exist to explore the influences of spirituality on the health outcomes and general well-being in patients with end-stage renal disease receiving haemodialysis (HD) treatment in Scotland. This study was therefore carried out to examine and explore spirituality in the day-to-day lives of patients with ESRD receiving HD treatment and how it may influence their health outcomes and, in particular, QOL and general well-being. The study described in this thesis employed a sequential mixed method approach over two stages: quantitative and qualitative. Following ethical approval, a cross-sectional survey was conducted with 72 patients from 11 dialysis units recruited from four Health Boards in Scotland. The participants in the study were regular patients attending the dialysis units three times per week. Data on patients’ quality of life, general well-being, and spirituality were collected using self-administered questionnaires including demographic information: the Short Form Medical Outcome Study Questionnaire (SF-36v2), the General Health Questionnaire, and the Spiritual Well-Being Questionnaire. The data were analysed using the Predictive Analytics Software for Windows. The findings highlighted that patients’ quality of life was markedly lower than the United Kingdom general population average norms of 50. Increasing age was associated with better mental health but worse physical health. The survey also found that there were no significant associations between spirituality and patients’ quality of life and general well-being. However, it was considered important to complement and enrich the survey findings by gaining a deeper understanding of the influences of spirituality on patients’ health outcomes and general well-being by carrying out the qualitative component of the study. Qualitative data were collected using semi-structured interviews with a subsample of 21 patients from those who participated in the survey. A thematic approach using Framework Analysis informed the qualitative data analysis. Four main themes emerged from the qualitative interviews: ‘Emotional and Psychological Turmoil’, ‘Life is Restricted’, ‘Spirituality’ and ‘Other Coping Strategies’. The findings from the interviews confirmed that patients’ quality of life might be affected because of the physical challenges such as unremitting fatigue, disease unpredictability, or being tied down to a dialysis machine, or the emotional and psychological challenges imposed by the disease into their lives such as wholesale changes, dialysis as a forced choice and having a sense of indebtedness. The findings also revealed that spirituality was an important coping strategy for the majority of participants who took part in the qualitative component (n=16). Different meanings of spirituality were identified including connection with God or Supernatural Being, connection with the self, others and nature/environment. Spirituality encouraged participants to accept their disease and offered them a sense of protection, instilled hope in them and helped them to maintain a positive attitude to carry on with their daily lives, which may have had a positive influence on their health outcomes and general well-being. The findings also revealed that humour was another coping strategy that helped to diffuse stress and anxiety for some participants and encouraged them to carry on with their lives. The findings from this study contribute knowledge to increase our understanding of the influence of spirituality on the health outcomes and general well-being of patients with end-stage renal disease currently receiving haemodialysis treatment. Based on the findings from this thesis, recommendations are made for clinical practice, patient and nurse education and for future research.

Abstract:
L’insuffisance respiratoire chronique est un syndrome défini par une défaillance monoviscéralerespiratoire. Sa principale origine est aujourd’hui le syndrome obésité-hypoventilation qui concerne 4 à 5% des patients obèses. L’IRC est aussi le stade évolutif terminal de la bronchopneumopathie chronique obstructive qui touche 6 à 8% de la population adulte. L’incidence de ces pathologies et donc de l’insuffisance respiratoire est en augmentation constante. Dans cette thèse, nous avons évalué les nouvelles modalités diagnostiques et thérapeutiques qui pourraient améliorer la prise en charge des patients atteints d’insuffisance respiratoire chronique.Concernant la prise en charge diagnostique, nous avons montré que les données fournies par l’électromyographie de surface des muscles intercostaux, outil qui évalue le travail respiratoire, constituent un marqueur pronostique indépendant chez les patients atteints de bronchopneumopathie chronique obstructive. Nous avons également montré leur pertinence pour prédire l’efficacité clinique et l’observance à la ventilation non-invasive à domicile.Concernant la prise en charge thérapeutique, nous avons montré que l’utilisation d’un mode semi-automatisé de ventilation non-invasive a la même efficacité que celle de modes classiques en permettant une mise en place plus rapide du traitement. Nous avons également rapporté l’intérêt de l’oxygénothérapie à haut débit au domicile alors que ce traitement était utilisé jusque-là dans le seul cadre des soins intensifs. Enfin, nous avons rapporté les bénéfices de la pression positive continue au cours de l’effort chez les patients ayant une trachéobronchomalacie. Concernant le suivi des patients, nous avons montré que les données des logiciels de ventilation non invasive permettent de prédire la survenue d’une exacerbation sévère de BPCO mais que l’utilisation de la télémédecine chez les patients insuffisants respiratoires chroniques ne peut être encore pleinement intégrée dans la pratique clinique. Au cours de cette thèse, nous avons identifié de nouveaux outils physiologiques, de nouvelles modalités d’administration des traitements et de nouveaux outils de suivi à domicile, à même d’améliorer la prise en charge des patients insuffisants respiratoires chroniques
Single-organ respiratory failure defines chronic respiratory failure. Obesity hypoventilation syndrome is the main cause of chronic respiratory failure and occurs in 4 to 5% of obese patients. Chronic respiratory failure is also the end-stage evolution of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that has a prevalence of 6 to 8% in the adult population. The incidence of these diseases increases so does the incidence of chronic respiratory failure. In this thesis, we will evaluate novel diagnostic and therapeutic modalities that could improve the care of patients with chronic respiratory failure. Regarding diagnostic modalities, we have seen that evaluating the work of breathing with surface parasternal electromyography was an independent prognostic marker in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We have also seen that it was a relevant tool to predict the clinicalefficacy and compliance to home non-invasive ventilation. Regarding therapeutic modalities, we have shown that the use of a semi-automatic mode of non-invasive ventilation had the same efficacy of a standard mode with a shorter length of stay for its setup. We have shown the relevance and feasibility of the use of high-flow oxygen therapy in the home setting whilst it was only used in intensive care units. Finally, we have shown the benefits of continuous positive airway pressure during exertion in patients with tracheobronchomalacia. Regarding patients’ follow-up, we have shown that the use of data from built-in software could predict the onset of a severe exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, we also show that the implementation of tele-medicine in patients with chronic respiratory failure cannot be included in daily clinical practice yet. In this thesis, we have identified novel physiological tools, novel ways to administer treatments and novel follow-up tools that can improve the management of patients with chronic respiratory failure

Chronic renal failure (CRF) has made a great impact on the health of our people.Patient''s Knowledge, attitude and self- care behavior are important to prevent deterioration of renal fuction. Many studies demonstrated that education could contribute to these, but no studies covering all these aspects have been done. A qasi-experimental design with accidental sampling was used for this study. Sixty eight patients with CRF were recruited from the nephrotic outpatient clinics in a teaching hospital and assigned to experimental or control group. The patients in the control only accepted routine care , while patients in the experi-mental group accepted the individual education. Results shew that patients had quite high needs and low faction to CRF knowledge. Generally, patients had insufficient knowledge about high potassium fruits, salt substitutes, high- quality protein food, serum creatinine, sexuality and the impor- tance of compliance. Moreover, patients hold neutral attitudes toward their disease, and more negative attitude toward perceived threat of disease and dialysis. The patients had a fair self-care behavior. Nevertheless, their self-care behaviors on information- seeking, self-monitor on creatinine, diet behavior about high- quality protein were poor. Seventy-five percent of our patients took folk medicine. In addition, result shew our patinets'' attitudes became more negative as serum creatinine and sign and symptoms increased. Furthermore, results shew that subjects in the experimental group had more knowledge, less needs and more satisfaction of their knowledge, more positive attitudes, and more self-care behaviors after they accepted this individual education program. Therefore, individual education program was effective and worth propagating.

Abstract:
A systematic approach to fatigue: figure out how bad it is; rule out the complaint of concussion-related fatigue as an excuse to get out of school, work, or unpleasant chores at home by asking the collateral source about how fatigued the patient acts in everyday life; rule out depression; rule out a primary sleep disorder; rule out alcohol, sedating medications, and other drugs; rule out withdrawal from stimulants; rule out a systemic cause such as hypotension, hypoxemia, renal failure, liver failure, anemia, hyponatremia, hypothyroidism, vitamin D deficiency, or chronic urinary tract infection. If these are not present or fatigue persists after treatment, consider prescribing one or more of the following: a very gradually progressive exercise program, bright light treatment, complete alcohol cessation, a diet that is low in refined sugar, a stimulant, amantadine, and modafinil.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the issues associated with providing palliative care to patients with renal failure, and covers initiation of renal replacement therapy, conservative treatment, symptom management for patients with advanced renal disease, and issues surrounding stopping renal replacement therapy. As obesity and diabetes increase, so does the incidence of chronic renal disease and end-stage renal failure. Determining the exact number of patients dying of renal failure is challenging. Often the cause of death will be ascribed to an associated contributing factor, e.g. diabetes mellitus, or the final acute event resulting in death, e.g. myocardial infarction. However, we know that renal failure is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with a high all-cause mortality.1 In addition, patients with end-stage renal failure have a significant symptom burden and therefore it is important that patients have access to palliative care services to assist with symptom management, advanced care planning, and, where appropriate, decisions around dialysis and transplantation.

Abstract:
A 61-year-old man with a history of type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, stroke, vascular dementia, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and depression presented to the hospital from a nursing home with altered mental status and weakness. The patient had been residing in a nursing home due mainly to dementia. On admission, he and his wife reported he had been experiencing altered mental status with increasing confusion over the past few months. On admission to the hospital, his ambulatory insulin regimen from the nursing home was continued. This regimen consisted of glargine 15 units subcutaneous every night and lispro 4 units subcutaneous with each meal, as well as a correction scale of 1 unit for every 50 mg/dL (2.8 mmol/L) >150 mg/dL (8.3 mmol/L).

Abstract:
Renal function serves as a window into the homeostasis of internal organs, and multiple organ system failure can occur in critically ill patients irrespective of the initial site of insult. Therefore, essential knowledge of renal pathophysiology is crucial in the diagnostic approach and management of critically ill patients. Close interaction between the kidney and other vital organs such as the heart, lungs, and brain is primarily responsible for the morbidity and mortality among critically ill patients. Pathologic renal changes can manifest in various conditions, such as acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease, glomerulonephritis, fluid-electrolyte imbalances, and nephrotic syndrome.

Abstract:
In the last years, major advances have been achieved in the understanding of the molecular and pathophysiological mechanisms which underlie the complex interactions between the heart and the kidney, as well as between the heart and the liver. According to these new insights, innovative biomarkers have been proposed for better evaluating and monitoring patients affected by cardiovascular diseases. In addition, some biomarkers should be used as risk factors and for an early identification and treatment of these severe diseases. This chapter reviews the most important biomarkers for evaluating the 'cardiorenal syndrome', in particular, the measurement of serum creatinine and its use for calculating the glomerular filtration rate which, with the new and more efficient equation, namely Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), still remains the most widely used biomarker. The role of newer biomarkers will be explored. The measurement of cystatin C, representing additional information, particularly in paediatric age groups and in the early phase of kidney disease, plays an increasing role. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a recently developed but largely used biomarker for the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury, while the well-known albumin/creatinine ratio has been re-evaluated as a simple and useful tool for an early identification of kidney disease. Regarding liver diseases, a growing body of evidence demonstrates the usefulness of non-invasive makers of hepatic fibrosis that may avoid the need for a liver biopsy in most patients. A promising field of research is represented by the role of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract:
Abstract Cancer-related pain affects up to 50% of patients receiving cancer-directed therapies and between 70% and 90% of patients with advanced-stage cancers. However, pain is a common symptom for many patients with serious illness other than cancer. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart failure, end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis, and various neurodegenerative disorders experience pain from their conditions. In these cases, pain is often underrecognized and undertreated, which can lead to functional impairment and suboptimal quality of life.

Abstract:
Renal replacement therapy is frequently used in the intensive care unit, primarily for the management of acute kidney injury, but it is also indicated for removal of some toxins and medications. Additionally, patients with dialysis-dependent chronic kidney failure who are admitted to the intensive care unit require their therapy to be continued. This chapter reviews the mechanisms by which renal replacement therapy operates and the types of replacement therapies that are available. Access for renal replacement and anticoagulation are also discussed.
