Abstract
Objective: To summarize the experience of prevention and control management of hemodialysis cen- ters during the epidemic situation of novel coronavirus（COVID-19）infection and to improve the effect of prevention and control management of hemodialysis centers in order to reduce the occurrence of COVID-19 infection. Methods: By developing the standards for prevention and control of COVID-19 in hemodialysis centers，the 267 hemodialysis centers in Zhejiang province were trained in the aspects of organization management，prevention and control proce- dures，patient education and management，staff training and management，We also standardize the hemodialysis procedures during the COVID-19 infection period，and standardize the isolated hemodialysis procedures of confirmed cases，suspected cases and patients observed at home. Results: There were 2 confirmed COVID-19 infection cases of 32071 hemodialysis patients in Zhejiang Province，and 10 hemodialysis patients in close contact with them were also taking isolation dialysis. No COVID-19 infection occurred after medical observation of 14 days. There were also no infections happened after 14 days' medical observation among 8 suspected cases and 78 home observation patients who were treated with standard isolation dialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy. None of the 4700 medical staffs got the nosocomial infections of COVID-19. Conclusion: The practice in hemodialysis centers is effective in preventing and controlling the new coronavirus infection in the provincial hemodialysis centers，which can reduce or even block the coronavirus infection in hemodialysis patients.
