Summary: This article reviews AI applications for dialysis monitoring with an academic clinical focus. It synthesizes device telemetry analytics, fluid status prediction, and nursing workflows for remote intervention and patient education.

Home and satellite dialysis programs require continuous monitoring to detect access issues, hypotension and adherence problems. Nurses coordinate care and respond to alerts. AI can analyze machine telemetry, weight trends and blood pressure to predict intradialytic instability and flag patients for nursing outreach.

Technically systems ingest dialysis machine logs, patient reported symptoms, and wearable vitals. Models include time series forecasting for hypotension and anomaly detection for access flow changes. Validation requires concordance with clinical events, prospective reduction in adverse events, and integration with telehealth nursing workflows.

Guidance: For dialysis programs: integrate AI alerts into nursing dashboards, set conservative thresholds for outreach, provide patient education scripts, pilot remote interventions with clear escalation to in center care, and monitor for alert fatigue and equity in access to remote technologies.

Conclusion: AI dialysis monitoring can reduce adverse events and support remote nursing when models are validated, thresholds are conservative, and workflows enable timely escalation.

Final Summary: Telemetry analytics + hypotension forecasting + nurse outreach. Priorities include conservative thresholds, telehealth integration, and prospective validation.
