- W123358633 abstract "Haemodialysis patients are at great risk for HCV infection, and a strict relationship is clear between anti-HCV positivity and dialysis age or hospital dialysis, irrespective of previous blood transfusions. Notwithstanding that, the precise root of its nosocomial nontransfusional diffusion among haemodialysis patients is not clear yet. As isolation is a very expensive policy, we evaluated whether simpler measures such as the observance of the Universal Precautions (UP), and the use of anti-HCV positive patient dedicated monitors can stop the diffusion of HCV infection in a hospital haemodialysis centre. Since January 1990 to December 1991 (1st phase), the patients shared the monitors irrespective of their serological status for HCV, and training of the dialysis care staff was not performed with regard to the UP. Since January 1991 to June 1996 (2nd phase), according to the UP, strictly personal dialysis-tools were used for all patients, anti-HCV positive patients were assigned to dedicated monitors in defined (not separated) areas of the dialysis rooms and the dialysis care staff was trained to the strict observance of the UP. In the first phase of the follow-up 5 seroconversions occurred; none occurred in the second one. Our study shows that isolation is not required for such patients. We believe that measures such as the application of UP, dedicated machines and continuous training of the care staff, instead of the isolation of positive patients, result in the same efficacy and are cheaper than isolation of positive patients. Therefore they are mandatory for all haemodialysis centres." @default.
