La enfermería cumple un papel decisivo en la atención del paciente con enfermedad renal crónica, tanto desde su inicio como en estados posteriores. Además de la destreza en las técnicas de sustitución renal como la adquisición de las competencias profesionales específicas, se requiere un cuidado específico y de calidad en los distintos estudios de la enfermedad renal.
Los cuidados del paciente nefrológico, incluyendo las técnicas de sustitución de la función renal, han tenido en los últimos años avances significativos tanto en lo relativo al trasplante renal como a la asistencia sanitaria del enfermo nefrológico, exigiendo a la enfermería una capacitación especializada y continuada. Este programa tan especializado rara vez se encuentra en la capacitación curricular habitual, por lo que muchas enfermeras/os desconocen aspectos importantes de la asistencia a estos pacientes. Una capacitación en este sentido se hace necesaria para garantizar unos mínimos en la calidad de la asistencia.

Postgraduate Certificate in Hemodialysis for Nursing
Chronic kidney disease causes the kidneys to not function properly, which makes it necessary to use procedures such as hemodialysis (HD); a fundamental technique that helps the body to filter toxins and water from the blood. This treatment is only carried out by qualified health personnel, however, the developments that have arisen in the sector have caused professionals to continuously train to learn the latest tools used in said procedure. Against this background, TECH Global University developed a Postgraduate Certificate in Hemodialysis for Nursing that covers the main differential characteristics and techniques currently used (high-flow and home hemodialysis). Through this 200-hour online program, students will specialize in optimizing the quality and care of nephrology patients, in order to provide them with a satisfactory recovery and comprehensive well-being. In addition, they will have unique academic material that includes everything from fundamental approach techniques to the ideal care that a user should receive in regular clinical practice.
He is studying a postgraduate Postgraduate Certificate on the hemodialysis procedure
According to the EPIRCE study (Epidemiology of Chronic Renal Failure in Spain), it is estimated that approximately 10% of the adult population suffers from some degree of chronic kidney disease, which requires that the nursing staff develop the necessary skills to treat this pathology through hemodialysis. In this program offered by the largest digital university in the world, students will find the most up-to-date academic agenda in the industry. Due to this, they will be specialists in managing renal function replacement techniques, both in cases of a traditional nature, and in patients with transplants who require individualized healthcare. In the same way, each one will understand the types of dialyzers and their liquids supplied in ideal doses (Kt, Kt/V and clearance of molecules); followed by surgical techniques and proper handling of the monitors (assembly, priming, connection, disconnection and disinfection). After completing the Postgraduate Certificate, students will obtain the necessary skills to deal with any diagnostic-therapeutic novelty that arises during the development of the procedure.
