Nephrology Department

About Department


  •  

    • Management of acute and chronic kidney disease, searching its causes and modern methods of treatment and early detection through innovative analysis, and their effectiveness in early and accurate diagnosis and treatment of complications arising from kidney disease in the form of anemia and osteodystrophy or arterial calcification as well as heart diseases resulting from these calcification disorders.
    • Management of glomerulonephritis, adequate diagnosis, follow-up and renal biopsy, and investigations of autoimmune diseases.

     

Mission


 

  • Our mission is the treatment of acute and chronic kidney diseases either by conservative and replacement therapy in the form of dialysis treatment or renal transplantation.
  • It includes also an early kidney disease prevention plan through early detection and treatment of diseases that lead to kidney failure, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases, renal stones, and congenital diseases.

 

Vision


  • Our vision is to prevent chronic kidney disease, minimize its burdens, and control its complications. Improving renal replacement therapies and ensuring their adequacy.
  • Early detection of renal disease and prevention.

  • Consultations for other sections of patients (urology – tropical – Surgery – Intensive Care).
  • Follow-up patients of the emergency department and the outpatient clinic with the necessary procedures.
  • Performing about 1,500 hemodialysis sessions per month.
  • Renal biopsy for patients when required for diagnosis.
  • Insertion of internal jugular and femoral hemodialysis catheters for patients from inside and outside the Institute to be used for acute dialysis.

Training


  • Training courses for doctors from outside the institute are held such as the Egyptian Society of Nephrology, which sent 35 young doctors for training on renal diseases in TBRI, in collaboration with the Universities of Mansoura and Zagazig.
  • Young doctors training on the new hemodiafiltration machine and dialysis training courses for new doctors and graduates.
  • Clinical pharmacy training for Galala University faculty of pharmacy students in summer, 2024.
