Objective Australia is currently experiencing a shortage of nursing staff that will have a negative impact on nursing specialties. We examined the current Australian and New Zealand nephrology nursing workforce for measures of burnout as well as for the features of ‘magnet’ qualities that can attract staff, support the workforce and reduce attrition. Methods A co-designed 57-item survey was distributed to the nephrology nursing workforce online through membership of the Renal Society of Australasia. The survey used the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) and included a discreet choice experiment (DCE) in which respondents are offered different choices, blinded to the intention, and asked to rank in order of highest priority what they considered to be the most valuable organisational attributes. Results The 253 respondents to the OLBI described moderate burnout (mean score 40.4); however, the respondents were mostly still able to describe feeling a sense of achievement most days. For the 143 respondents who completed the DCE, they chose professional

Dyspnoea in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving haemodialysis (HD) is common, and caused negative impacts during the COVID‑19 pandemic. This study aimed to explore dyspnoea experience and management strategies in Thai HD patients during the COVID‑19 pandemic. A qualitative descriptive approach was conducted. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 20 participants from three regional hospitals in Thailand, and data were collected using face‑to‑face, individual semi‑structured interviews. Data were analysed using a qualitative content analysis method. The study results revealed two main themes and six sub‑themes. The first is the experience of dyspnoea during the COVID‑19 pandemic, including: being afraid of contracting COVID‑19, leading to severe dyspnoea and death; difficulty controlling fluid and food intake; and reducing HD cycles. The second concerned dyspnoea management during the COVID‑19 pandemic, including: changing dietary behaviour; applying religious teaching; and receiving more help from family members. This study reflects how Thai culture is influenced by both religion and family support. Nurses play an important role in helping and managing patients’ dyspnoea symptoms, allowing patients receiving HD to fulfil their daily life goals during the COVID‑19 pandemic.
接受血液透析（HD）的慢性肾病（CKD）患者呼吸困难很常见，并在 COVID-19 大流行期间造成了负面影响。本研究旨在探讨 COVID-19 大流行期间泰国血液透析患者的呼吸困难经历和处理策略。研究采用定性描述法。通过有目的的抽样，从泰国的三家地区医院招募了 20 名参与者，并采用面对面、个人半结构化访谈的方式收集数据。采用定性内容分析法对数据进行了分析。研究结果揭示了两个主题和六个次主题。第一个主题是 COVID-19 大流行期间的呼吸困难经历，包括：害怕感染 COVID-19，导致严重呼吸困难和死亡；难以控制液体和食物摄入量；减少 HD 周期。第二项研究涉及 COVID-19 大流行期间的呼吸困难管理，包括：改变饮食行为；应用宗教教义；从家人那里获得更多帮助。这项研究反映了泰国文化如何受到宗教和家庭支持的影响。护士在帮助和管理患者呼吸困难症状方面发挥着重要作用，使接受 HD 的患者在 COVID-19 大流行期间能够实现其日常生活目标。

Background Hepatitis B vaccination remains ‘standard-of-care’ in the haemodialysis (HD) population despite immunological challenges. CKD patients have decreasing immunity as the disease progresses, prompting further research to investigate the response of Hepatitis B vaccination in earlier stages of CKD for better response rate prior
