Enjoy this interactive morning filled with tools to help you push past the no time / money / energy challenges, tips to help you sustain your motivation and take immediate action to improve the quality of your work / home life. You will connect with like-minded colleagues as you redefine wellness on your own terms in this, one of a kind “shift”.

CNA Certification

This workshop is designed to inform and assist nephrology nurses preparing for the CNA Certification Exam. The content will focus on the CNA Certification process, use practice questions to familiarize applicants with the types of questions on the exam and provide sample strategies to assist studying.

The Basics of Peritoneal Dialysis

This 2-hour workshop will include basic Peritoneal Dialysis (PD), Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD), Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD), complications of PD, peritoneal equilibrium test (PET), adequacy of PD, myths surrounding PD, specialty solutions, infections and non-infectious complications. As well, the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) and International Society of Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) guidelines and recommendations will be discussed.

National Paediatric Network Collaboration WorkshopPaediatric home dialysis / nephrology nurses exist in small numbers nationally. It is common that home dialysis / nephrology nurses collaborate more in close consultation with their hospital nephrologists in comparison to peer to peer interactions outside of their home hospital as these links are limited, distant and/or not yet established. It is difficult to promote clinical best practice without the network opportunities to share. The objective of a paediatric national collaborative workshop at CANNT 2011 is to provide an opportunity to network and collaborate to enhance the delivery of care to their patients. Attendees will meet other national paediatric professionals, identify 2 new best practices through case study round table sessions and identify 3 new/emerging practice issues. This initiative is supported by Baxter Canada.

Learn about Dialysis Technical Certification (cdt) and Take the Technical Test for Fun!

Advancements in medical technology have improved patient outcomes and reduced intervention related risks. Certification recognizes individuals in the medical technology field (biomedical engineering or dialysis) whose level of knowledge, skill and experience meets Canadian and international standards. The Canadian Board of Examiners offers certification in dialysis and biomedical engineering technology. The purpose of this workshop is to familiarize dialysis and biomedical technologists to the certification process and the certification test to achieve the dialysis technical certification (cdt).

Effect of Varied Dialysate Bicarbonate Levels on Phosphate and Potassium Removal in Chronic Pediatric Hemodialysis Patients: A Pilot Study

Hyperphosphatemia in chronic HD patients is associated with increased (cardiovascular) mortality, hyperparathyroidism and renal bone disease. Hyperkalemia is a life threatening complication. Management is restricted by patient compliance and dialysis limitations. Results from our pilot experience will be presented based on the hypothesis that relatively low dialysate bicarbonate, compared with higher levels, will enhance phosphate and potassium removal.

Seven Years of Nocturnal Hemodialysis in the Southern Alberta Renal Program: Perceptions & Recruitment

Challenges and solutions: Our presentation will share results of a survey aimed at eliciting candid observations from health care professionals in our program about referral of patients to nocturnal hemodialysis. We will also share a promotional presentation that we developed to enhance recruitment.

With the expertise of a Clinical Ethicist, this presentation will highlight a difficult case that went to court in British Columbia in 2008, wherein a distraught family member demanded that nephrologists reinitiate dialysis for a dying patient against their clinical judgement. Identifying ethical dilemmas (and the moral distress that can result for staff) and introducing principle-based decision-making will also be discussed.

DMAR: The Dialysis Measurement, Analysis and Reporting System

The objectives of this presentation are: 1) highlight the need for high quality information in order to evaluate performance of dialysis programs; 2) demonstrate that the collection of high quality date is feasible in everyday practice; 3) discuss the importance of how information is “packaged”; and 4) show how the implementation of a web-based platform for the collection of high quality information can lead to more efficient use of resources.

Conservative Care....Building a Comprehensive Support System for Renal End of Life

Building a palliative focused case management option for CKD patients who do not want dialysis. The establishing of links to the community and other system supports to achieve optimum management for these clients. The focus on good intake Advance Care Planning discussions for all these clients to prepare them and their families for the EOL journey and potential medical crisis/care they may need or face.

Using Carbon Filters for Home Dialysis Water Systems: Our Experience at the Grand River Hospital

At the Grand River Hospital home dialysis program, we have had three years experience using large capacity carbon filters in place of carbon tanks for our chlorine removal needs in water treatment. We will discuss our experiences, and the advantages and disadvantages of this approach.

2A – 2F

Complexities of Transition to Adult Care in Pediatric Dialysis and Transplant Patients

Pediatric patients with ESRD experience change both physically and psychologically as they become adolescents, and issues such as non-adherence and risk-taking behaviour may increase. During this vulnerable period, transition to adult-centered programs usually occurs. Evaluation of both existing and new models of care is urgently needed to ensure delivery of high quality health care to these patients.

Tailouring Resources to Patient Needs: An Innovative Approach to Resource Allocation for Patients on Home-based Renal Replacement Therapy

This presentation will review a unique tool developed by industry partners that measures risk for hospitalization and mortality. Risk stratification of patients on a home-based therapy such as peritoneal dialysis and home hemodialysis provides a unique opportunity to plan patient specific care according to each patient's specific needs to prevent hospitalization and death.

OPENING RECEPTION

Exploring the Impact of Decision Support for Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease Best Practice Guidelines Implementation on Vascular Access Decisions in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients

Patients with CKD are faced with numerous treatment decisions. This presentation will outline a study to determine the utility of decision support interventions (using the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario's Best Practice Guideline for Decision Support in CKD patients) on vascular access decisions in patients on hemodialysis.

Adapting to My New Normal: A Patient's Perspective

For Didja, kidney disease hit suddenly and unexpectedly when she was a young mother. She was very ill and eventually received a transplant from her sister only to have it fail. Didja then had to adjust to the reality that she would not be able to receive another transplanted kidney. Despite much hospitalization - open heart surgery, infections - Didja remains one of the most positive people we know! Living with kidney disease did not stop her from walking 100 km in 2010 in support of kidney disease awareness. Her messages of taking one day at a time and dealing with the new normal of whatever life gives us, is truly inspirational!

When a Renal Client is Dying: A Training Program to Learn What to Say and How to Care

Individuals with renal disease have unique end-of-life needs. Consequently their grief experiences tend to show unique characteristics as well. Undeniably, caregivers of any status require skills to support these patients and family members during this emotional period. Therefore, this presentation will describe a training program created for care providers that develops bereavement supportive skills that will assist them when working with clients and families at end-of-life. Particular attention will be focused on one learning tool created in Calgary: a renal specific grief DVD.

Green Dialysis: A Healthier Patient, You and Planet

This session looks to provide new insight into changing our current health and diet culture by providing ways to decrease the risk of disease, as well as improve the health and well being of everyone around us, including the planet. Note: this presentation is geared to all interests.

3A – 3F

This presentation will illustrate the new role of pediatric nephrology advanced practitioners in the role of an advanced practice nurse (APN) / nurse practitioner (NP), in a combined acute and chronic care setting at the Hospital for Sick Children. The APN/NP is a leader but works collaboratively with all members of the Nephrology Division. The innovative role is based on a two-NP model of care where two APNs provide comprehensive and consistent care to children who have kidney disease, and their families, in the inpatient and ambulatory care setting.

The Road to Healthy Eating: Thinking Outside the Renal Box

In the chronic renal population there are ongoing issues related to diet restrictions. Our program organized our second afternoon of recipe demonstrations and tasting at a community supermarket. We are hoping the food presentations will promote patient adherence to their diabetic and renal restrictions.

Lions Camp Dorset How Not to be Fish Out of Water: Developing the Role of the Lions Camp Dorset Program Coordinator

Lions Camp Dorset, situated in the heart of Ontario's cottage country, is a unique holiday resort with an on-site hemodialysis unit. Join our tour of this extraordinary facility, while we detail the role of the Lions Camp Dorset Program Coordinator at Grand River Hospital, as the facilitator of a smooth transition of hemodialysis in-centre, to off-site care.

Establishing a Successful Intradialytic Exercise Program

This presentation will overview the key components involved in setting up and running a safe and effective exercise program for dialysis patients. A review of relevant research, equipment required, staff roles, as well as current policies and procedures will be addressed.

Chronic Kidney Disease and Vein Preservation: A Provincial Approach

This presentation blazes a new trail by incorporating a multi-disciplinary, multi-centre and cross-continuum approach to the development and implementation of a provincial guideline on vein preservation in people with chronic kidney disease.

Future Trends in Addressing Dialyzer Clearance

As dialyzers have evolved from the first relatively inefficient initial coils and flat plate configurations to the modern hollow fiber design, clearance has improved dramatically This presentation will introduce the concept of standardized Kt/V using three models: the Leypoldt Fixed Volume equation, the Surface Area Normalized equation and the Frequent Hemodialysis Network UF-corrected Standard Kt/V equation. Examples of calculations using some of the latest dialyzers will be presented.

The selection of this machine for CRRT in children allows for the use of an unlimited number of dialyzers and lines in addition to the on-line production of dialysate which can be modified when needed. We have used this machine to successfully dialyze children as small as 1.3 kg.

Evaluation of an Advanced Practice Nurse Led Collaborative Chronic Kidney Care Model for Renal Transplant Patients

The presentation will describe the results of a study evaluating the effectiveness of an alternate model of care for renal transplant CKD patients. The new model incorporated an APN and interprofessional health care team focused on the long-term post transplant care needs specific to patients with kidney graft dysfunction at a Stage 3 CKD or greater. Interventions included strategies to enhance medication adherence and support patient decision making around ESRD options.

Central Venous Catheters: Strategies for Prevention of Malfunction and Infection

The objectives of this presentation are to: describe strategies for the prevention of catheter malfunction in hemodialysis patients; and to describe strategies for the prevention of catheter-related infection in hemodialysis patients.

Peritoneal Dialysis: Telehomecare Initiative

The telehomecare service is an adjunct therapy offered to PD patients who; live long distances from the unit, have complex health conditions and for those who may need additional support with their care. The in home touch screen technology enables the nursing team, through a colour coding system, to prioritize patients requiring intervention. The first year of use significantly decreased hospitalization and emergency room rates.

Advance Care Planning is at Odds with Life as it is Lived

Some researchers have concluded that we have gained little after two decades of intense research into human self-determination with respect to medical care. Original research into human relationships with technology, writing, and the experience of time may explain why. What do we hold onto? Where do we go from here?

7A – 7F SLED (Sustained Low Efficiency Dialysis) in the ICU: Exploring Care Models of Two Hospitals

SLED (Sustained Low Efficiency Dialysis) is gaining increased support in the replacement of CRRT (continuous renal replacement therapy). SLED facilitates efficient detoxifica -tion, is cost effective and has favourable cardio-vascular tolerability for the criticallty ill patient. This presentation will focus on how SLED was successfully implemented in the ICU setting using innovative collaborative nursing model at UHn (University Health Network), and an autonomous ICU-nurse model at North York General Hospital.

What Can I Do to Get My Patient Transplanted?

Kidney transplantation is considered to be the treatment of choice for many patients with end stage renal failure. However the process from identification of suitable candidates to actual transplantation is a complex one, with many hurdles to be overcome. This presentation will focus on the first steps in this process, that of referral for kidney transplantation. It will highlight some of the racial and culltural, socioeconomic, and geographic barriers which adversely impact equitable access to transplantation in this country.

"Should I Get a Fistula?": A Video Presentation

This presentation summarizes the process involved in creating an educational video and the end result - “Should I get a Fistula?”. The short video is an additional educational tool for providing education for staff, patients and their families or patient care providers. The content includes topics related to fistulae as described by a Vascular Surgeon and four hemodialysis patients currently receiving hemodialysis using an AVF.

Patient Transitions - One Step at a Time

Process improvement is not easy, it takes a cohesive group with similar goals to accelerate and create successful change. Patients transitioning between sites, between modalities, and between out patient and in patient, experience many challenges. This presentation discusses the communication plan for all nephrology providers to help ease the burden of these complex transitions: who, where, when, why, and what needed to happen so that patient transitions could be much more seamless.

Home Dialysis Patient Education: The Art and Science of Adult Learning

We did it our way, the way we've "always done it", and thought we were doing fine. However, when we reviewed our patient satisfaction surveys from our Home Dialysis Program we discovered that our training materials were not always compatible with patients' learning styles. Together we created an educational workshop to help us improve our home dialysis training programs.

Can Travelling and Camping with a Hemodialysis Machine be Accomplished Safely?

Three main issues had to be addressed before letting this patient travel in such a manner : 1) evaluation and education of the patient as well as what extra training was needed to troubleshoot and resolve problems with water treatment equipment, the dialysis machine and any clinical issues that might occur ; 2) the technical issues involved with installing water treatment equipment and a dialysis machine in a small area so it would not be damaged by the vehicle's movement but there would be sufficient room to operate it correctly ; and 3) emergency plans what would the patient do if they were unable to dialyse because of technical or clinical problems. This presentation is an overview of that process.

8A – 8F Deathbed Phenomena: Real or Imagined ?

Visions of deceased relatives or other phenomena close to the time of death are sometimes reported by dying people or their relatives. These visions form part of a range of experiences that have been considered under the umbrella term of deathbed phenomena. They can have a positive effect; bringing a sense of peace, comfort, and calmness, although sometimes they may be frightening experiences for the dying person and/or family members. Part of the role of the palliative care professional is to normalize experiences around death and dying; although these types of experiences are known to occur, there have been few systematic studies of them or how healthcare professionals working with end of life understand and perceive them. This session will explore the concept of Deathbed Phenomena through an examination of the literature and discussion of best practice in palliative care.

Should this Patient Get a Kidney Transplant?

This presentation focuses on the barriers to kidney transplantation that exist in this country for patients referred for evaluation as transplant candidates. Discussions regarding transplant eligibility and organ allocation illustrate dynamic tensions between advocacy for the individual patient and the reality of a scarce resource, that of donated kidneys available for transplant. The mechanics of the transplant assessment process, listing and organ allocation will be reviewed.

Entering Sacred Space: Challenging the Rule of Two Inches Minimum between Cannulation Needles

This presentation describes a pilot research project that measured the amount of recirculation comparing needle distances of 5 cm (two inches) to 2.5 cm (one inch). Sixty episodes of data were generated. We found no recirculation, and no impairment of hemodialysis clearance in both needle distance treatment groups.

Diabetes in Stage 4 - 5 CKD: Diabetes with a Shrinking Pantry

People with diabetes and stage 4-5 chronic kidney (CKD) disease face challenges that are not present for those who have a GFR > 30 ml/min. This presentation will address some of the unique features of diabetes in this chronically critically ill population, as well as identify the need for further research and appropriate clinical practice guidelines.

Self Management to Health Coaching: Putting the Patient First

Our Nephrology program has incorporated a self-management model, providing education to our multidisciplinary team to enhance their skill and enable them to facilitate behaviour change. Health coaching is a natural next step. Health coaching incorporates motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioural theory, and solution focused interventions. This presentation will demonstrate how we utilized these methods over the past year in our program.

Testing Treated Water, in Preparation for Doing Hemodiafiltration (HDF) in Children

The standards for water for hemodiafiltration are more stringent than those for hemodialysis. This presentation will present the study results of ongoing testing and sampling at Sick Kids Hospital (Toronto). The results demonstrate that the water coming out of the water purification system can be used for hemodiafiltration, in conjunction with an appropriate hemodiafiltration machine.

9A - 9F Forging Ahead in Unknown Waters: One Year Later – The Collaborative Care Practice Model

This session will continue the experience we presented one year ago. It will focus on the evolution of the RPN being introduced into the PHU and Satellite dialysis units, the revisions that were made to their orientation process, and the newly developed mentoring program. Introducing the collaborative care model continues to bring many new challenges and opportunities to our program, our goal is to share the experience, the lessons learned, while evaluating the ongoing success of our journey.

Strategies to Increase Access to Transplantation

This presentation will review the National Living Donor Paired Exchange Program. Challenges and successes, and the plan for implementation of the Highly Sensitized Registry will also be discussed.

Non-adherence: The Hidden Cause of Treatment Failure

Non-adherence to recommended therapy has plagued the optimal management of many chronic conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease. Using the renal transplant population as an example, this presentation will review the types of non-adherent behaviour, strategies for monitoring for non-adherence, and recommendations to improve compliance with recommended treatments.

The Handwriting on the Wall: Program Transformations Utilizing Effective Change Management Strategies

In 2010, St. Michael's embarked on a partnership with Baxter Canada. This work has important linkages for both the Excellent Care for All Act, 2010 (Bill 46) and St. Michael's Hospital annual quality improvement plan. This presentation will focus on change management using concepts presented in "Who Moved My Cheese?"

Facing the Challenge Together: New and Improved Patient Information

Our presentation outline the steps we took to modify our present patient information program to incorporate the RNAO best practice guidelines, the principles of a CKD self-management program, the feedback from the multidisciplinary team, and patient evaluations.

Bacterial Endotoxin Testing Basics: Benefits and Obstacles to LAL Testing

Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) is recognized as the most sensitive test for bacterial endotoxins – the pyrogen of greatest consequence to the biomedical industry. LAL consists of proteases that are sequentially activated upon exposure to gram negative bacterial endotoxins or fungal glucans. As enzymes, LAL requires optimum conditions for activity. Unfortunately, dialysis solutions were not developed for easy LAL testing. This presentation will review the basic principles behind the LAL test. It will also highlight common LAL problems and it will provide solutions to overcoming the inhibition / enhancement that is often seen with LAL testing.

Inspiring Leadership

What does it REALLY take to inspire, motivate, and engage employees? How do you create a “WANT TO” kind of workplace, rather than a “HAVE TO” kind of workplace? How do you develop future leaders? How do you make sure your workplace doesn't end up in tomorrow's Dilbert™ strip? INSPIRING LEADERSHIP is relentlessly honest and packed full of relevant ideas that leaders can immediately implement. As a bonus, Michael's thought-provoking ideas are delivered in a unique, high energy and hilarious style.
