Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • usability

    To assess the usability of the new dialysis bags compared to the current bags. This will be measured using Likert-scale responses from the usability survey, focusing on ease of use, safety, and efficiency during CRRT procedures. A head-to-head comparison will be performed

    4 months

Study Arms (1)

ICU nurses

ICU nurses with at least 6 months of experience in administering CRRT

Study Population

ICU nurses

You may qualify if:

  • Nurse working in an adult intensive care unit (ICU)
  • Competent in performing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT)

You may not qualify if:

  • Nurses with less than 6 months of experience in administering CRRT, to ensure sufficient experience for a valid head-to-head comparison with the older dialysis bags.
  • Nurses who are not directly involved in the handling or replacement of dialysis bags during CRRT procedures.
