The data system nephrology/dialysis (DSND) may improve the documentation and information processes used in chronic hemodialysis. DNSD is efficient if the data input is done carefully. It is possible to display large numbers of laboratory and dialysis data arranged alpha-numerically or graphically. Data over a period of 5 weeks or 14 consecutive examinations are recorded. An advantage is the possibility to print letters, labels and dialysis protocols. For scientific questions the points of class wideness for laboratory results, weight changes or medication are possible. Furthermore, the use of DSND may be valuable for use in a kidney transplantation information system.
