NEPHROLOGY UNIT The burden of renal diseases in Tanzania is growing, as in sub-Saharan Africa. Non communicable diseases are a driving force of chronic kidney disease. Acute kidney injury is also common with increased morbidity and mortality. Hence a significant need exists for disease prevention with pro-active screening and diagnosis, to provide early treatment to high risk populations across the country.Additionally, existing advanced renal failure needs treatment with dialysis and or transplantation. Implementation of the current knowledge can substantially reduce kidney disease burden and improve patient SUCCESS Nephrology unit is the fastest growing unit in terms of having exponential raise in number of patients as well as hemodialysis patients who are cumulatively increasing with minimum number of discharge. We started hemodialysis with 3 three patients in July 2016 and we have cared since then more than 456 patients and currently we have 95 patients doing maintenance/chronic hemodialysis at our centre. And we started with 10 machines we have expanded the unit and currently we have 23 machines including infectious unit, and we are using new modern machines. Our nephrology clinic is taking care of approximately 600 patients with different renal diseases per month who are on different stages of renal failure, expecting that at one time they will need hemodialysis as a bridge to the renal transplant as a definite treatment. VISION To provide personalize sustainable patient care with compassion and dignity that is supported by dedicated health care professionals, medical innovation and collaboration. We are growing to be independent department and eventually Bugando Institute of Nephrology MISSION To be the “choice provider” of specialized kidney diseases and dialysis services. Our motto “MAKE IT HAPPEN. Permanent access Currently we are doing Permanent central line catheterization, soon we are going to start Renal transplant.
