Nephrology (Dialysis)

 

The Nephrology Department at Shree Jagannath Charitable Cancer Hospital is dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of kidney-related disorders, providing comprehensive care to patients with acute or chronic kidney diseases. A significant focus of the department is on dialysis services, a life-saving treatment for individuals with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney dysfunction.

Dialysis serves as an artificial replacement for lost kidney function, effectively removing waste, toxins, and excess fluid from the blood. The hospital offers two primary types of dialysis: hemodialysis, which involves an external machine to filter blood, and peritoneal dialysis, a home-based method using the patient’s abdominal lining as a natural filter. Both options are administered under the care of skilled nephrologists and trained dialysis technicians, ensuring safety and comfort for patients.

In addition to dialysis, the department emphasizes early diagnosis and management of conditions like diabetic nephropathy, hypertension-related kidney issues, glomerulonephritis, and acute kidney injuries. Equipped with modern facilities and adhering to stringent infection control protocols, the department provides reliable, efficient, and affordable nephrology services.

Aligned with the mission of Shree Jagannath Charitable Cancer Hospital, the Nephrology Department strives to make high-quality kidney care accessible to all, particularly for patients with limited financial means. By offering compassionate care and empowering patients with education on kidney health, the hospital helps improve their quality of life and overall well-being.
