Abstract
Objectives: analyze patient safety in hemodialysis clinics in northeastern Brazil. Methods: One hundred eighty-one nursing professionals from 11 hemodialysis clinics in Fortaleza, Brazil, participated. Data collection occurred through the application of a sociodemographic characterization form and the Patient Safety Assessment Scale for Chronic Patients in Hemodialysis. Descriptive analysis of quantitative variables and the Chi-Square and Likelihood Ratio statistical tests were performed. Results: The study showed that 165 (91.2%) subjects received safe care practices, while 16 (8.8%) received unsafe care practices, originating from two (18%) hemodialysis clinics. There was a significant association between work hours (p=0.017) and participation in patient safety training (p=0.005) and care practices. Conclusion: Non-compliant patient safety practices were identified, associated with sociodemographic factors of the nursing team. Targeted interventions are needed to improve patient safety in these settings.
