摘要

尼泊尔在肾脏病学方面取得了重大进展,从没有透析服务发展到提供全面的肾脏护理,包括透析和移植。这段旅程始于20世纪80年代,当时在比尔医院建立了第一个肾脏病科,此后发展到包括60多个透析中心和多个移植设施。财政补贴和健康保险计划等政府举措增加了可及性,但由于劳动力短缺、基础设施分布不均以及透析服务质量控制不一致,差距仍然存在。透析前护理仍然不发达,由于社会经济和后勤障碍,采用腹膜透析的挑战仍然存在。主要依靠活体供体的肾脏移植项目已经显示出稳定的增长。重症监护肾病和介入服务正在逐渐兴起。为了取得进展,解决劳动力短缺问题、提高护理质量、通过战略投资和全球伙伴关系扩大公平获取至关重要。

Nephrology in Nepal: How it Started and Where We Are.

Nepal has made significant strides in nephrology, progressing from no dialysis services to offering comprehensive kidney care, including dialysis and transplantation. The journey began in the 1980s with the establishment of the first nephrology unit at Bir Hospital and has since grown to encompass over 60 dialysis centers and multiple transplant facilities. Government initiatives, such as financial subsidies and health insurance schemes, have increased accessibility, yet disparities persist due to workforce shortages, uneven infrastructure distribution, and inconsistent quality control in dialysis services. Pre-dialysis care remains underdeveloped, and challenges in adopting peritoneal dialysis persist due to socioeconomic and logistical barriers. The kidney transplant program, primarily reliant on living donors, has shown steady growth. Critical care nephrology and interventional services are gradually emerging. To advance, addressing workforce shortages, improving care quality, and expanding equitable access through strategic investments and global partnerships are essential.
