This measures how often patients need blood transfusions. Dialysis centers with good anemia care (helping patients maintain healthy iron levels and red blood cell counts) have fewer patients needing transfusions. Fewer transfusions mean better care.

No Data

Avoiding Transfusions

Lower transfusion rates

Data Not Available

Not enough patients to report on this measure. This typically means the facility serves fewer than the minimum number of patients required for reliable statistical reporting.

This measures how many patients have a fistula (a connection between an artery and vein in the arm) for their dialysis access. Fistulas are the best type of access because they last longer, have fewer infections, and work better than other types like catheters. Higher percentages are better.

No Data

Arteriovenous fistula rate

This measures how well patients maintain healthy phosphorus levels in their blood. When phosphorus gets too high or too low, it can cause serious bone problems and heart disease. Good dialysis centers help patients keep their phosphorus in the healthy range (3.5-4.5 mg/dL) through diet education and proper treatment.

Preventing Hospitalizations

Lower hospitalization rates

92.2 per 100 pt-years

National Avg: 144.7 per 100 pt-years

Lower mortality rates

28.3 per 100 pt-years

National Avg: 22.5 per 100 pt-years

This measures how effectively dialysis cleans toxins and waste from patients' blood. Kt/V is a calculation that shows if patients are getting enough dialysis time and treatment.
