GONZALEZ GONZALEZ, María Isabel. Current approach to microbiological quality of haemodialysis water. Rev Cubana Salud Pública [online]. 2012, vol.38, n.3, pp. 451-462. ISSN 0864-3466.

The microbiological quality of haemodialysis water is vital for the treatment of patients suffering renal chronic disease, in order to avoid or reduce the risk of infection, since a patient's blood gets in contact with 20 000 to 25 000 litres of water per year through a membrane. There are many controversies at present regarding the regulations and guidelines for the evaluation of haemodialysis water, particularly the microbiological parameters which are undergoing a harmonization process and are highly significant. The paper was aimed at providing the current approach for the evaluation of the microbiological quality of haemodialysis water at domestic and international levels and the incorporation of such approach into the national health surveillance.

Palavras-chave : microbiological quality; haemodialysis water; standards.
