<p>Acute blood purification therapy is essential for the effective management of severe patients, but errors that can sometimes develop during such therapy may cause serious medical accidents. Especially in an intensive-care unit (ICU) where high-level and complex treatments are provided, it is essential to correctly perform blood purification therapy and promote safety management with the collaborative and complementary involvement of medical workers from various fields. In our hospital, we prepare for and conduct blood purification therapy by confirming the “7Rs of acute blood purification therapy” as well as using our manual and a checklist. In addition, these procedures are standardized so that safe and correct therapy can be performed independently regardless of the individual skill levels of the medical professionals. In our hospital, effective team medicine with various medical workers can be provided for intensive care because full-time clinical engineers in the ICU focus continually on improving their knowledge and techniques (technical skills) and encouraging smooth communication among the various staff members (non-technical skills). High-quality and safe blood purification therapy can be further secured when team medicine techniques are improved through the continuous education of medical workers in other fields. </p>
