A leading centre in the region, providing comprehensive kidney disease management, the nephrology department is dedicated to highest standards of patient care with human touch.

Our team of dedicated, well qualified and experienced nephrologists, provide, cutting edge care for all types of kidney disease –Acute Kidney Injury (Acute Renal Failure), chronic kidney disease (CKD) (Chronic Renal Failure), Reno vascular or difficult to treat Hypertension, Nephritic Syndromes, Nephrotic Syndromes, Electrolyte disturbances and End Stage Kidney Disease.

Special focus is given to educating patients with CKD to delay progression, along with optimised of diet and using up to date, evidence-based medicines, to delay progression to End Stage Kidney Disease.

The scope of services the department provides:

Clinical Nephrology – Regular Out Patient and Inpatient Consultation
Critical Care Nephrology
Kidney Biopsy – Real Time Ultrasound guided
Temporary and tunnelled ( Permcath ) dialysis catheter placement
Haemodialysis
Emergency Dialysis 24 hrs
SLED
CRRT –for critical Patients
Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD, APD)
Plasmapheresis
Hemoperfusions techniques – for poisonings/ intoxications
Kidney Transplant Evaluation
Post Kidney Transplant Care

We offer cutting edge care in all areas of nephrology with round the clock delivery of care for kidney patients.

Kidney Biopsy: Accurate treatment depends on accurate diagnosis. A kidney biopsy usually provides the most accurate diagnosis. Our team regularly performs real time ultrasound guided biopsies for both native kidneys or transplanted kidneys, with the aim to provide precise care. Already considered relatively safe, using automated needles with real time guidance make the procedures even safer. The sample so obtained undergo light microscopy (LM), immunofluorescence (IF) and electron microscopy (EM) studies as needed.

Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT): Highly sophisticated dialysis modalities for critically ill patients in ICU/ICCU with multi-organ failure, where routine haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis are not possible for various reasons.

Various procedures done with this technique are:

SCUF (Slow Continuous Ultrafiltration)
CVVH (Continuous Veno-Venous hemofiltration)
CVVHD (Continuous Veno-Venous haemodialysis)
CVVHDF (Continuous Veno-Venous hemodiafiltration)

We use state of the Art R.O.(Reverse Osmosis) water for the dialysis, which are monitored regularly with stringent tests as per international norms, to ensure patient safety. Facility for continuous monitoring of sick patient on dialysis through sophisticated monitors throughout the dialysis procedure is available.

Hemoperfusion: It is a modality for blood purification in which toxins removal is achieved by binding molecules to adsorbent material or resins. These are typically useful in poisoning and drug overdose, especially when done early can prevent or minimize complications, and can be lifesaving.

Supported by highly trained Medical, Technical and Nursing staff, our dialysis team provides the highest quality care.
