What it is

Chair scheduling and session records bracketed by pre- and post-weights, with fluid removed computed from the two, and the recurring-visit rhythm a dialysis unit runs on. The Programme tab keeps the unit’s CAPD register: the catheter insertion with who and the technique as recorded, exit-site reviews with the findings as seen, adequacy tests with the measure named and the value as reported, and every peritonitis episode with the effluent result, the organism read from the MicroBench culture (or entered with where it was reported), the treatment as prescribed and the outcome — an open episode first, then an adequacy test past the nephrologist’s interval. Between sessions it shows weight gain as arithmetic on the unit’s own weights and the weights the patient logs in the Patient App or reports to the unit, with the day’s fluid intake, flagged only against the fluid limit and gain alert the nephrologist set. RO water and dialysate tests run to the unit’s own schedule and levels, with the standard they come from named; a result past a level opens an action that stays until someone records what was done.

How it works

Add the unit’s chairsA chair takes a code such as CH-1 and the machine on it — Fresenius 4008S; a second chair with that code is refused, and the board builds itself from them.
Book the sessionFind the patient, choose an active chair and morning, afternoon, evening or night; a second session for that patient on the same date is refused, and Cancel takes a reason and works only before the session starts.
Start with a pre-weightStart (pre-weight) asks the weight in kg; only a booked session starts, a chair that already has a running session is refused, so is a patient already on one, and a weight outside 10–300 kg is refused as a typo.
Complete with a post-weightComplete (post-weight) closes a running session and fluid removed is computed from the two weights, never typed; the chair time on the board is elapsed from the recorded start, because no planned duration exists to count down from.
Run the unit’s programmeThe Programme tab keeps the CAPD register (catheter, exit site, adequacy and peritonitis, an open episode first), weight gain between sessions from the unit’s own weights and what the patient logs or reports, flagged only against the nephrologist’s limit or alert, and RO water tests on the unit’s own schedule and levels, where a result past a level opens an action until closed.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not adjust a dialysis prescription, set a fluid limit, adequacy target or water level, or log home CAPD exchanges — targets, limits, intervals and levels are the unit’s own, each with who set it and its source, and none ships.

Questions clinics ask

What does DialysisDesk do?

The dialysis unit’s chairs and sessions — with its CAPD register, weight gain between sessions and RO water testing. Chair scheduling and session records bracketed by pre- and post-weights, with fluid removed computed from the two, and the recurring-visit rhythm a dialysis unit runs on. The Programme tab keeps the unit’s CAPD register: the catheter insertion with who and the technique as recorded, exit-site reviews with the findings as seen, adequacy tests with the measure named and the value as reported, and every peritonitis episode with the effluent result, the organism read from the MicroBench culture (or entered with where it was reported), the treatment as prescribed and the outcome — an open episode first, then an adequacy test past the nephrologist’s interval. Between sessions it shows weight gain as arithmetic on the unit’s own weights and the weights the patient logs in the Patient App or reports to the unit, with the day’s fluid intake, flagged only against the fluid limit and gain alert the nephrologist set. RO water and dialysate tests run to the unit’s own schedule and levels, with the standard they come from named; a result past a level opens an action that stays until someone records what was done.

What data does DialysisDesk read and write?

DialysisDesk reads schedules, the chart, MicroBench cultures, Patient App weights and writes sessions, chair assignments, CAPD register entries and peritonitis episodes, weights and fluid intake between sessions, RO water and dialysate results. Its data class is Full PHI. Every app works on the same patient record — nothing is copied into a silo.

What does DialysisDesk deliberately not do?

What happens to our data if we uninstall DialysisDesk?

Session records stay in the chart.

Is DialysisDesk available today?

Yes — DialysisDesk is live in clinics today. Set up your practice on MedAppz and install it from your dashboard.
