Abstract

Background: Patients with HD Catheter may experience fever, chills, and stiffness during haemodialysis. According to previous research, Up to 85% of patients shiver, 79% have fever, and 70% have both. Patients who shiver can be warmed using blankets, socks, and head coverings. Currently, warming gowns are an advanced technology that can optimize treatment and care for shivering patients.
Purpose: To identify studies on management of shivering in HD Catheter patients using warming gown.
Methode : This research is a descriptive analysis using the Publish or Perish application. The search period was 1974-2023. The keywords HD Catheter and warming gown were analyzed using VOSviewer. In addition, the researchers examined a number of experimental articles that were published and available for free between 2021 and 2023 to determine the types of interventions performed on patients with HD Catheter and the use of warming gown.
Results : According to Scopus, there were 1925 articles related to HD Catheter and 24 articles about warming gown. In the HD Catheter category, there were 5 major clusters, while the warming gown category had 2 major clusters. The most frequently discussed topics in the HD Catheter articles were HD catheter and prevention. The articles recommended the use of evidence-based techniques, ClearGuard HD Antimicrobial Barrier Caps and taurolidine fluid to reduce the incidence of HD Catheter disfunction and prevent bloodstream infections. None of the articles discussed the use of warming gowns in patients with HD Catheter. In a separate search, it was found that the most widely used topics in the category of warming gown were hypothermia and prevention.
Conclusion : Since 1974-2023, numerous research articles have been published on HD catheters, but none have explored the use of warming gowns to prevent shivering in patients with HD catheters.
