Citations were managed using reference manager RefWorks (Copyright2015, Proquest LLC) and Endnote X4 (Copyright 1988-2010, Thompson-Reuters). The use of peritoneal dialysis (PD) varies worldwide, with this variability likely resulting from the different characteristics of health care systems.1,2 In Hong Kong, where there is a PD-first policy, 71% of patients use PD, whereas in Mexico, 61% of patients use PD largely due to lack of availability of other forms of dialysis.

RSAJ. The majority of studies (66% including ESRD and interventional-related studies) focused at end stages of renal disease, missing an early opportunity to use CQI to optimize processes to prevent or abate disease progression. Characteristics of the included 76 studies are as follows. 2008;23:105–14. The RaDIANT Community Study aims to improve equity in access to kidney transplantation for ESRD patients in the Southeast. Although there has been interest in applying CQI within healthcare, and numerous reports of CQI processes that have been applied in healthcare, there appears to be a paucity of published literature systematically evaluating CQI use and its impact within medical contexts [17].

Hamad Medical Corporation is the only provider of dialysis services in Qatar. We describe the community-based participatory research (CBPR) process utilized in planning the Reducing Disparities In Access to kidNey Transplantation (RaDIANT) Community Study, a trial developed by the SEKTC to reduce health disparities in access to kidney transplantation among AA ESRD patients in Georgia, the state with the lowest kidney transplant rates in the nation. To address these questions, a practice needs structured clinical and administrative data. The association between facility-to-facility differences in delivered hemodialysis dose and facility-specific mortality rates was examined among 5817 randomly selected patients treated with hemodialysis on October 1, 1994, from all 213 hemodialysis treatment centers reporting to ESRD Network 6. Many pediatric nephrology practices are recognizing the value that the advanced practice provider (APP) brings to their healthcare team. Seventy-nine met criteria for full review; three were only available in abstract form. the principle of "continuous quality improvement" in health care recognizes that there are always learning opportunities for individual practitioners, for health care systems, and for quality improvement programs. Economic pressures, such as the decline in inflation-adjusted Medicare payments for dialysis, may compromise the quality of care. There is no single definition of CQI, but generally it is a management technique and set of tools to optimize systems and continually improve processes [5, 6] (Table 1). 2008;102:772–7.

As stated above, this may change because there are a growing number of recent publications promoting its use [39, 40]. Lewis S, White Y. New York: McGraw Hill; 2004. We also applied our search outside of usual sources and into the gray literature, recognizing that non-traditional distribution channels may be more amenable to reporting on CQI efforts. Our review describes this process in the context of the translational research model (bench to bedside to populations), with a particular emphasis on bedside care. Fields assessed included whether a specific CQI tool was described and if so, which tool. Implement Sci.

BP control 3. Issues related to assessment of the strength of evidence underlying a practice guideline opposed to that reported in an individual study are highlighted. Furthermore, the mean center URR increased nearly 3% among intensive intervention centers (from 68.1 to 70.9) but only 0.09% among the feedback centers (68.2 to 69.1) (P = 0.002). J Ren Nutr.

The APP is often the first-line healthcare provider, directing initial recommendations for acute dialysis complications, managing chronic dialysis care, and providing health-literate education to patients and families. More recently, CQI has been encouraged for use in healthcare [8]. 1 We were frustrated by the failure of traditional quality assurance programs to unify the staff toward goals The literature search was applied to PubMed MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Google Scholar, and ProQuest Dissertation Abstracts.
