Invitation

The 14^th Annual Convention and Scientific Seminar of Kidney Foundation, Bangladesh will be held on 12^th to 13^th December, 2018 at Kidney Foundation Hospital and Research Institute, Mirpur-2, Dhaka-1216.

 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is increasing throughout the world, more so in developing than in developed countries. It is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality as compared to other non-communicable diseases.  In majority of CKD if detected early and treatment initiated promptly its progression can be halted.  CKD is an asymptomatic disease in majority of cases unless presented in  advance stage. Once Kidney disease reach in advance stage,treatment is either dialysis or transplantation.Dialysis and transplantation are very expensive and about 80-90 per cent of Kidney failure patients of low and low middle income countries can not afford to pay for the treatment. Awareness of the disease is therefore very important to prevent its progression.

The Theme of the convention of this year is ““Kidney health for all – anybody, any where”.

 Glomerulonephritis,Diabetes and Hypertension are the most important causes of  Chronic Kidney Disease in our country leading to End Stage Renal Disease. It is therefore important to detected and effectively treat all form of Glomerulonephritis,Diabetes and Hypertension.    

The 14^th annual convention and scientific seminar will highlight the recent advances in the management of Glomerulonephritis. A renal histological workshop will also be arranged in order to  diagnosis of this disease.

An ICU training workshop will also be arranged for doctors and ICU nurses. We hope that doctors working in clinical nephrology, dialysis and transplantation and the renal pathologist will be benefited with this type of workshop.  Arrangement of the oral and poster presentation will be arranged.

A number of national and international experts will participate in the scientific seminar.

You are cordially invited to join the 14^th annual Convention and scientific seminar.
