Theme: Focusing on Ongoing Research in Nephrology and Dialysis

Webinar on Nephrology will be hosted on April 24, 2021 at 10:00 AM (Paris, France Timezone). This Webinars aims to support all scientists and scholars from all over the world in delivering their ideas by a safe and successful event.  The goal of webinar/online event is to make international online events as safe as possible from public health risks of the Covid-19 with technical support to host for events. The main objective of this Nephrology 2021 is, “Explore the potentials for treatment & prevention in Nephrology”.

The Nephrology 2021 will accentuation on the on-going examination and revelations in the field of Nephrology showing a remarkable open door for the specialists, medicinal services experts, universities personnel, nephrologists, and specialists over the world to meet, organize and recognize new logical advancements in the field.

 

Session 1: Clinical Nephrology

The kidneys have always been an object of mystery and study from time immemorial. Every year, the population prevalence of chronic kidney disease exceeds 10%, and is more than 50% in high-risk subpopulations. Thus it considers the clinical nephrology where Clinical Nephrology is a specialty of medicine that concerns itself with the study of normal kidney function, kidney problems, the treatment of kidney problems and renal replacement therapy including dialysis and kidney transplantation.

Session 2: Acute and Chronic Kidney Diseases

Kidney problems can develop suddenly (acute) or over the long term (chronic). Many conditions, diseases, and medicines can create situations that lead to acute and chronic kidney problems. Acute kidney injury, which used to be called acute renal failure, is more commonly reversible than chronic kidney failure.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is usually caused by an event that leads to kidney malfunction, such as dehydration, blood loss from major surgery or injury, or the use of medicines. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is usually caused by a long-term disease, such as high blood pressure or diabetes that slowly damages the kidneys and reduces their function over time.

Session 3: Kidney Transplantation and Therapy

Kidney transplantation or renal transplantation is the organ transplant of a kidney into a patient with end-stage kidney disease. Kidney transplantation is typically classified as deceased-donor (formerly known as cadaveric) or living-donor transplantation depending on the source of the donor organ. Living-donor kidney transplants are further characterized as genetically related (living-related) or non-related (living-unrelated) transplants, depending on whether a biological relationship exists between the donor and recipient.

Session 4: Dialysis

In medicine, dialysis is the process of removing excess water, solutes, and toxins from the blood in people whose kidneys can no longer perform these functions naturally. This is referred to as renal replacement therapy. The 2 types of dialysis are hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

In hemodialysis, your bloodstream is joined to a kidney machine outside the body. Hemodialysis is most often done 3 times per week and each session takes about 4 hours. Peritoneal dialysis is done through a tube in the belly. Dialysis will not cure kidney failure. But dialysis can replace the work of the kidneys, and help you feel better and live longer.

Session 5: Pediatric Nephrology

Nephrology is the scientific study of the kidneys, particularly their functions and diseases, and a nephrologist is a physician who specializes in the kidneys. The kidneys remove waste from the body (via urine), filter toxins from the blood and help regulate the concentration of certain elements in the blood. Children whose kidneys have become seriously impaired require immediate and specialized medical care. Pediatric Nephrology Services offers comprehensive testing and evaluation of the kidneys to definitively diagnosis any problems, as well as to determine the cause. Pediatric Nephrology Services also provides prenatal evaluation and counselling for families whose unborn children are identified with kidney disease.
