An '''[[end-stage renal disease facility]]''' ('''ESRD facility''', '''dialysis facility''', or '''dialysis center''') is a medical facility that operates to assist people with irreversible loss of kidney function (stage five), requiring a regular course of dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive. The facility may operate independently, as part of a [[hospital]]-based unit, or as a self-care unit that furnishes only self-dialysis services.

The U.S. [[Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services]] (CMS) describes four types of ESRD facilities, including the renal transplantation center, for ESRD transplant patients; the renal dialysis center, a hospital unit for ESRD dialysis patients; a renal dialysis facility, a direct or stand-alone dialysis unit for ESRD patients; and a self-dialysis unit attached to one of the previous three, providing self-dialysis services. Patients undergoing dialysis at these facilities require two important documentation steps: the patient assessment and the patient plan of care. U.S. Federal regulation requires a comprehensive 13-point assessment, including current health status, laboratory profile, and nutritional status.

"GitHub as an open electronic laboratory notebook for real-time sharing of knowledge and collaboration"

Electronic laboratory notebooks (ELNs) have expanded the utility of the paper laboratory notebook beyond that of a simple record keeping tool. Open ELNs offer additional benefits to the scientific community, including increased transparency, reproducibility, and integrity. A key element underpinning these benefits is facile and expedient knowledge sharing which aids communication and collaboration. In previous projects, we have used LabTrove and LabArchives as open ELNs, in partnership with GitHub (an open-source web-based platform originally developed for collaborative coding) for communication and discussion. Here we present our personal experiences using GitHub as the central platform for many aspects of the scientific process ... (Full article...)
