The kidneys are among the most vital organs in the body, functioning like a filtration system that removes waste, chemicals, and foreign substances. They also regulate the balance of water, electrolytes, and blood pH levels, in addition to producing certain hormones.
Several factors can impair kidney function, including genetic disorders, diabetes, high blood pressure, and exposure to various drugs and chemicals. Additionally, there are diseases that directly affect the kidneys, such as kidney stones, chronic nephritis, and urinary tract infections.
Statistics show that the incidence of kidney disease among Thai people is on the rise. Phyathai Sriracha Hospital recognizes the pressing issue of the shortage of modern medical equipment and skilled medical personnel specialized in nephrology. To provide comprehensive care for kidney patients, the hospital offers services ranging from diagnosis and treatment to hemodialysis, all utilizing advanced and standardized medical technologies. The Kidney Center is staffed by nephrology specialists and certified dialysis nurses, ensuring round-the-clock care.
