英文摘要

COVID-19 pandemic infection spread worldwide and lead high mortality rate, causing a local transmission outbreak in Taiwan in May 2021. The Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) therefore raised COVID-19 alert level to Level 3, and the medical institutions were strictly guarded and proposed countermeasures. Hemodialysis patients were at high risk of COVID-19 infection because of the features of multiple comorbidities, compromised immune system, 3.5 to 4-hour restriction in an indoor environment thrice a week, frequent and close contact with medical staff .To respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, we applied entry access control with body temperature checked, TOCC (Travel/Occupation/Contact/Cluster) history for visitors, and fever screening and health evaluation for individuals who had contact with a COVID-19 patient. In addition, we advocated isolation and triage measures for patients from a different source and results of screening, COVID-19 vaccination injection if no contraindications, and LINE official account for dialysis patients to provide information. From May 2021, there was no COVID-19 confirmed infected case in our hemodialysis unit. Besides, all medical staff was vaccinated 2 doses for COVID-19, and up to 90.2% of our dialysis patients also received 2 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. For the safety of Dialysis patients, We needed to review and adjust prevention programs according to epidemic conditions accordingly. We hope our experience with COVID-19 epidemic prevention can lead the dialysis team to cope with COVID-19 and future epidemics.
