Overview
Paediatric Nephrology
We have approximately 650 inpatient admissions each year with an outpatient schedule of 5000 visits annually. In 2016, the pediatric nephrology care unit performed 750 dialysis sessions (both acute and chronic hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis), 5 renal transplants and 95 renal biopsies.
In line with our mission, we believe that no child with renal disease should be denied acute management for lack of monetary support. We welcome and treat many children whose families cannot afford health care. For these children, the department provides financial support for the acute management through the hospital administration and NGOs. In addition, we provide voluntary outreach services in rural and semi-urban areas.
Our team of physicians, social worker, nurses and support staff are committed to deliver and maintain a high standard of excellence in the care we provide. We consistently strive to provide quality holistic care through state of art and advanced treatment, compassionate support and communication.
We have the region’s largest Pediatric Nephrology team, caring for more than 5000 children a year with a variety of kidney problems. We provide care specialized to the needs of children with kidney diseases.
MISSION
To provide multidisciplinary and individualized care for children with kidney diseases in a ethical way and at an affordable cost, in order to improve the quality of life and to be globally recognized as an “Centre of Excellence in Paediatric Nephrology for Patient Care, Education and Research”
VISION
• Being the first standalone department of Paediatric Nephrology in the country, our endeavour is to achieve excellence in clinical care and sustain a multi-disciplinary, low-cost renal care delivery system that can reach out to all children in need of care, especially the underprivileged.
• To reach out to children with kidney diseases in low and low and low middle-income countries by expanding the footprints of our training program to Asian and African regions through international collaborations.
• To develop and sustain a clinical and translational research program to improve knowledge and treatment of pediatric kidney disease.
