Core Tip |
Diabetes is the commonest cause of end stage renal failure in many countries. Patients with diabetes on haemodialysis are at high risk of retinal and foot problems, and need regular screening to ensure they do not develop problems related to these complications. Our survey suggests that most patients are getting eye checks, but a significant number are not getting foot checks. This is an important area for all dialysis units to consider. We recommend that patients have foot screening whilst on dialysis, which may require further training for dialysis nurses. |
