2.2 Lakh new patients are added to dialysis every year due to Kidney Failure.
10 to 17% Indian adults in India have some degree of Kidney dysfunction , 30% related to diabetes.
Dialysis costs 25K to 50K per month and puts the whole family of the patients in financial stress and limits the quality of life of the patients. The longevity of life on dialysis is less as compared to Transplant.
9K to 10,000 Kidney Transplant happen every year in India. Remaining 2 Lakh new dialysis patients remain on dialysis.
Dialysis although a life saving procedure, is a huge financial burden and also every dialysis session 1200 ltr water is rejected for every 200 ltr RO ultrapure double RO water used for dialysis, putting huge environmental burden and also the dialyzers and tubing being discarded add to the environmental pollution.
So Kidney Transplant should be the most economical and viable option for dialysis patients not only from thier own quality of life and longevity of life Point of view but also from environmental poin of view.
A living Kidney donor , is selected keeping in mind the safety of the donor as paramount important. The donor death rates are less than 1 per 10,000 and donor needing dialysis in their life time are less than 1 in 1000. So Kidney Transplant is the most life saving intervention , economical and environmental friendly and also the donar is safe.
90,000 + Successful Kidney Transplant patients are living in India.
Let’s educate and motivate dialysis patients for Kidney Transplant for a better life and save environment for future generations.
Those who cannot go for Transplant due to lack of donor can register for Cadaver Transplant, now the good news is that Govt is removing the Barriers of state domicile for registration for cadaver Transplant.
Waiting period on Cadaver Transplant wait list is upto 2 to3 years, so educating general population about organ donation when there is brain death and motivating healthy donors in family to donate for their loved one’s is best option for now
Kidney Transplant awareness message , in interest of all.
