An '''[[end-stage renal disease facility]]''' ('''ESRD facility''', '''dialysis facility''', or '''dialysis center''') is a medical facility that operates to assist people with irreversible loss of kidney function (stage five), requiring a regular course of dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive. The facility may operate independently, as part of a [[hospital]]-based unit, or as a self-care unit that furnishes only self-dialysis services.

The U.S. [[Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services]] (CMS) describes four types of ESRD facilities, including the renal transplantation center, for ESRD transplant patients; the renal dialysis center, a hospital unit for ESRD dialysis patients; a renal dialysis facility, a direct or stand-alone dialysis unit for ESRD patients; and a self-dialysis unit attached to one of the previous three, providing self-dialysis services. Patients undergoing dialysis at these facilities require two important documentation steps: the patient assessment and the patient plan of care. U.S. Federal regulation requires a comprehensive 13-point assessment, including current health status, laboratory profile, and nutritional status.

"Knowledge of internal quality control for laboratory tests among laboratory personnel working in a biochemistry department of a tertiary care center: A descriptive cross-sectional study"

The clinical laboratory holds a central position in patient care, and as such, ensuring accurate laboratory test results is a necessity. Internal quality control (QC) ensures day-to-day laboratory consistency. However, unless practiced, the success of laboratory quality management systems (QMSs) cannot be achieved. This depends on the efforts and commitment of laboratory personnel for its implementation. Hence, the aim of this study was to find out the knowledge of internal QC for laboratory tests among laboratory personnel working in the Department of Biochemistry, B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences (BPKIHS), a tertiary care center ... (Full article...)
