Meeting Standards

This measures whether children on dialysis are eating enough protein to grow properly. Kids with kidney disease often don't feel like eating, but protein is crucial for building muscles, bones, and brain development. The dialysis team works with families to make sure children get the nutrition they need through special diets, supplements, or feeding support.

Target: ≥85%

Based on 13 children

Why This Matters:

Children with kidney disease often struggle with appetite, but proper nutrition is essential for growing strong and healthy.

Patient Survey Rating

No patient survey data available

CMS 5-Star Quality Rating

CMS 5-Star Rating Not Available

Not enough quality measure data to calculate a star rating. This typically applies to newer facilities or those with limited reporting history.

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

Fistula Access

Arteriovenous fistula rate

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 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.

No Data

Phosphorus Control

Optimal phosphorus levels

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 often patients end up in the hospital. Good dialysis centers work to keep patients healthy and out of the hospital by providing quality treatment, monitoring for problems early, and coordinating with other doctors. Fewer hospitalizations usually mean better care.

Worse

Preventing Hospitalizations

Lower hospitalization rates

148.3 per 100 pt-years

National Avg: 144.7 per 100 pt-years

This measures patient survival rates. Dialysis centers with better care, equipment, and staff training typically have lower death rates among their patients. This is one of the most important measures of overall care quality.

No Data

Preventing Deaths

Lower mortality 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 often patients get serious bloodstream infections. These infections can be life-threatening and often happen through the access point where patients connect to the dialysis machine. Centers with better infection control practices have lower infection rates. A score below 1.0 means fewer infections than expected.

No Data

Preventing Infections

Lower infection 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 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. A score of 1.2 or higher means the patient is getting adequate dialysis. Higher percentages mean more patients are getting proper treatment.

No Data

Dialysis Adequacy

Kt/V ≥ 1.2 achieved

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 well dialysis centers help eligible patients get on the kidney transplant waiting list. A kidney transplant is usually the best long-term treatment for kidney failure. Good centers educate patients about transplants and help them through the evaluation process. Higher scores mean more patients are getting this important opportunity.
