• hemodialysis
• chlorine [analysis]
• water [analysis].

objective: to evaluate the use of recommendations and the water chlorine concentration used for hemodialysis in hospitals of recife city, pernambuco. methods: this retrospective study reviewed documentations of water chlorine concentration for hemodialysis in 8 hospitals from august 2006 to may 2008. water chlorine analysis was performed with orthotolidine 0.1% at the beginning of the hemodialysis. results: of the 3.781 samples of water assessed, only 840 samples (22. 2%) had an adequate concentration of chlorine (0.2 to 0.5 ppm). the majority of the samples (2.849, 75.4%) had chlorine concentration above the recommended criteria. only a small number of samples (92, 2.4%) had no chlorine in the water. conclusion: findings indicated significant variability in water chlorine concentration for hemodialysis, suggesting the need for strict regulations of dialysis services to promote quality care and safety to patients on hemodialysis.
