BENEFICIARIES
AKBMC serves patients with Renal Failure who need treatment by either Hemodialysis or Peritoneal-Dialysis.
Renal Failure is one of the serious diseases that affect human health and life style. It is a medical condition in which the kidneys fail to adequately filter waste and harmful substances from the blood, which consequently leads to the accumulation of these substances with excess salts in the blood, which in turn leads to failure in different body tissues and organs.
Diabetes and Blood Pressure are accountable for many Renal Diseases, as they cause about 70% of the cases treated by Hemodialysis or Peritoneal-Dialysis. Some permanent and chronic Renal Diseases lead to Renal Failure, as well as the misuse or frequent intake of certain medications.
AKBMC is on constant contact with the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation to provide it with AKBMC dialysis patients’ data, in order to register them into the organ donation waiting list for kidney transplant, so that they may get a chance to return to their normal lives and activities.
