Water treatment for hemodialysis, including the latest AAMI standards
Abstract
Inadequately purified water for hemodialysis (HD) treatments have led to many documented patient injuries and deaths. Although nurses may not be servicing the water treatment system, they are nonetheless responsible for understanding all the clinical ramifications of water treatment for HD. This article offers information on water treatment components used for HD applications, including the latest AAMI standards.
