Autumn 2014
Nearly half the year has gone and unless you are a winter sports fan its time
to hunker down with books, TV and the friendly electric blanket. Events have
rather overtaken us in the office: Entertainment Book Sales are well
underway; a date has been set to cook up and test the first set of our
recipes in the cook book project; and Viv heading away to the UK and
Europe for 4 months to help out with family, combined with a little travel,
taking advantage of her husband’s long service leave.
Linda Paterson will be filling in for Viv for the next 4 months. Linda used to
work as a physiotherapist and more recently has extended her interests and
qualifications in quite divergent areas, so will enjoy a good chat on HDTC
and hospital visiting days. Linda’s Profile is on page 4.
We have received a donation of $10,000 from The Canterbury Community
Trust to assist with wages, KIC operations and our care packs. We are very
grateful for the financial support The Canterbury Community Trust continues
to provide, it is vital to our service and funding application always exceed
sector budget allocations, so we are fortunate to receive such generous
consideration.
The CKS AGM is on June 25th and we would love to see you there. It is a
great opportunity to catch up with other members and supporters. If you are
interested in what we do and taking a more active role in our future then
come along and join our enthusiastic committee. There will be a special
raffle just for those attending, refreshments and delicious finger food. Doors
open at 5pm.

Linda Paterson CKS Field Worker
I am looking forward to joining the team while Viv spends time overseas.
I have been in New Zealand for the past 26 years and have gained a
husband and 3 amazing children during that time.
I am originally from Norfolk in England and my extended family are all still
there. I qualified as a physiotherapist and worked for some years in the UK
and here.
In recent years I have worked as a teacher aide, completed a degree at
Canterbury university and volunteered as a treasurer for several
organisations.
I currently volunteer at Riding for the Disabled and am completing a
computing course, enjoy working in the garden, doing pottery and other
crafts while caring for my 92 year old mother-in-law.

The Home Dialysis Advisory Committee, originally set up by Kidney Health Australia, has health profession and consumer representatives from Australia and New Zealand who work to ensure that there are appropriate resources and support for people who wish have home dialysis – both haemo and peritoneal dialysis. The Committee also organises a biannual conference on home dialysis. Some of the recent work by the Committee
may be of interest to readers.
The Australian Charter of Home Dialysis Rights and Responsibilities.The Australian Charter of Home Dialysis Rights and Responsibilities.The Australian Charter of Home Dialysis Rights and Responsibilities.The Australian Charter of Home Dialysis Rights and Responsibilities.
This document developed, for use in Australia, but applicable to New
Zealand, can be seen at
homedialysis.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Charter-of-Rights-
Leaflet.pdf.
The leaflet is a useful guide for patients who choose home dialysis, their
carers and the health professionals responsible for their care.
Blood leak detectionBlood leak detectionBlood leak detectionBlood leak detection
One of the most serious things that can go wrong during haemodialysis is a major blood leak from a fistula or central venous catheter. A new leaflet has been developed to provide tips and advise on how to prevent and manage
an accidental blood spill or leak during a haemodialysis session.
homedialysis.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/HD-Blood-Leak.pdf
Electrical standards for home dialysisElectrical standards for home dialysisElectrical standards for home dialysisElectrical standards for home dialysis.
Electrical standards for home haemodialysis and automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) in Australia and New Zealand are covered by Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand. Mandatory regulations were introduced in April 2011 aimed at preventing patient electrocution and incorporated all home medical devices as one group. These new standards would have required a separate electrical circuit protected by a Leakage Protection Device (LPD) (A device to detect current leakage) for haemodialysis or APD
in the home to match the standard for hospitals. The Home Dialysis Advisory
Page 6 The Renal Messenger Autumn 2014
Committee after consultation with renal units considered that these changes would not be appropriate, feasible or economic if applied to home dialysis. The Committee were able to get the Standards Authority to revise the regulations so that the only requirement for permanent APD and haemodialysis installations in the home is that the circuit to the dialysis room must be protected by a 30mA RCD (Residual Current Device) at the switchboard and a patient accessible LPD at the socket in the room (as long as the house and existing circuits are deemed safe for this by an electrician). The new standard will only apply to new installations and existing users do not need to make any changes. There is no mention of temporary dialysis, as could apply to APD where the patient is away from home. Those patients undertaking APD away from home are advised to use a portable LPD. Further advice can be obtained from your local dialysis staff.
ANZDATA Report ANZDATA Report ANZDATA Report ANZDATA Report –––– 2012201220122012 The 35th Annual Report of the Australian and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry has just been published. This report has information on all New Zealand patients being treated for kidney failure at New Zealand’s 12 renal units and 15 satellite units (including the recently opened unit at Albany). During 2011, 477 people started treatment for kidney failure in New Zealand. Diabetes at 42% was the main cause of kidney failure, 24% had glomerulonephritis and 11% hypertension. At the time of the report there were 2,381 dialysis patients – this number has been stable for a few years. Together, hospital haemodialysis and satellite dialysis accounted for 48% of all dialysis patients. Peritoneal dialysis accounted for 33% of all dialysis patients and 64% of all patients dialysing at home. The number of Maori and Pacific people starting dialysis decreased in 2011 (126 patients and 94 patients, respectively).
A History of Dialysis Treatment in New Zealand A History of Dialysis Treatment in New Zealand A History of Dialysis Treatment in New Zealand A History of Dialysis Treatment in New Zealand Together with a small group of senior colleagues I have embarked on a pro-ject to record the history of dialysis treatment in New Zealand. I would be grateful to hear from any patients or their families about their experience with dialysis. I am particularly interested in hearing about patient’s experi-ences or recollections of staff and treatment facilities. If you have photo-graphs I would be grateful for access to them for copying and inclusion in the publication – with permission.

potato per day.

Stephanie came to observe and meet with the full council and core group and in April returned to spend time with us when we met at the Design Lab. At that meeting and observation of design facilities, Ngaere Dawson presented patient stories that had been gathered when researching “The Patient Journey” which gave valuable insights for the planners.

Would you prefer to receive your Renal Messenger by email as a PDF file?
Each printed copy costs us around $1.70 to print and post. In view of the
fact that more of our members now have access to email we would be
pleased to email the Messenger to those members who would prefer to
receive it this way.
We would like to thank the 83 members and supporters who have already
chosen delivery by email, it has already resulted in a cut to the print run
with associated savings to the CKS.
We now produce 350 hard copies each issue which are distributed to
members, interest groups throughout the country and around the hospital.
Of course we will continue to do this, but if we could further, reduce hard
copy print numbers our savings would be even more
significant.
