Track-1: Nephrology

Nephrology is the kind of medicine and pediatric medicine which concerns itself with the kidneys: the study of normal kidney function and kidney disease, the preservation of kidney health, and the treatment of renal disorder, from diet and medicine to nephritic replacement medical aid. Nephrology conjointly studies general conditions that have an effect on the kidneys, like polygenic disease and reaction disease; and general diseases that occur as a result of renal disorder, like nephritic osteodystrophy and hypertension. The kidneys serve important functions, including filtration and excretion of metabolic waste products (urea and ammonium); regulation of necessary electrolytes, fluid, acid-base balance and stimulation of red blood cell production. They conjointly serve to manage pressure via the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, dominant organic process of water and maintaining intravascular volume. The kidneys conjointly absorb aldohexose and amino acids and have secretion functions via glycoprotein, calcitriol and cholecarciferol activation.

Hereditary kidney disorders represent significant risk for the development of end stage renal disease (ESRD). Most of them are recognized in childhood, or prenatal particularly those phenotypically expressed as anomalies on ultrasound examination (US) during pregnancy. Some kidney diseases result from genetic factors. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), for example, is a genetic disorder in which many cysts grow in the kidneys. PKD cysts will slowly switch a lot of the mass of the kidneys, decreasing urinary organ perform and resulting in failure. Some urinary organ complications might show up even before birth. Examples contain autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD) a rare form of PKD, and other developing problems that interfere with the normal formation of the nephrons. The signs of kidney disease in children vary.

Track-7: Dialysis

Dialysis performs the function of the kidneys if they’ve failed. It is a treatment that filters and purifies the blood using a machine. This helps keep the fluids and electrolytes in balance when the kidneys can’t do their job. Dialysis, the additional common variety of kidney-replacement medical aid, could be a manner of improvement the blood with a synthetic excretory organ. There are two types of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

Hemodialysis: It is a system of purifying the blood of a person whose kidneys are not running commonly and is the choice of renal replacement remedy for patient who need dialysis acutely and for many patients as preservation therapy. There are three styles of hemodialysis: Conventional hemodialysis, each day hemodialysis, and Nocturnal hemodialysis.

Peritoneal Dialysis: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a remedy that uses the liner of your stomach (stomach area), called your peritoneum, and a cleaning answer referred to as dialysate to smooth your blood. The two maximum not unusual styles of PD are Non-stop ambulatory PD (CAPD) and Non-stop cycler-assisted PD (CCPD).

• Hemodialysis

• Peritoneal dialysis

• Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis

• Intermittent peritoneal dialysis

Track-8: Urology & Urinary Tract Infections

Urology also referred to as genitourinary surgical procedure, is a branch of medication that focuses on surgical and medical sicknesses of the urinary tract system and an infection in any part of the urinary device, is referred to as a urinary tract infection. A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, the ureters, the bladder or the urethra. Most infections are in the bladder or the urethra, the parts of the urinary tract that are closest to the outside of the body. An infection can occur in either the upper or lower urinary tract. Further common in adults than children, urinary tract infections are second only to respiratory infections as the most common type of infection.

Track-10: Diabetic Nephropathy

High blood glucose, also called blood sugar, can damage the blood vessels in the kidneys. When the blood vessels get damaged, they don’t work properly so that many people with diabetes develop high blood pressure, which can damage kidneys. Diabetic kidney disease is defined as macro albuminuria (albumin to creatinine ratio [ACR] >35 mg/mmol [400 mg/g]), or micro albuminuria (ACR 3.5-35.0 mg/mmol [35-400 mg/g]) associated with retinopathy (type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes) and/or >11 years' duration of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). In most patients with diabetes, chronic kidney disease can be attributable to diabetes mellitus if these criteria are met. Other causes of diabetic kidney diseases should be considered in the presence of any of the following circumstances: rapidly decreasing GFR, absence of diabetic retinopathy, presence of active urinary sediment, or signs or symptoms of other systemic disease. The diagnosis is most of the time conclusively made by kidney biopsy, though it is rarely necessary.

• Non-diabetic kidney disease

• Renal tract obstruction

Track-11: Kidney and Bladder stones

Kidney or bladder stones area unit solid build-ups of crystals made of minerals and proteins found in excretory product. Bladder diverticulum, enlarged prostate, bladder disorder and tract infection will cause an individual to have a greater chance of developing bladder stones. But if a stone irritates the bladder wall or blocks the flow of urine, signs and symptoms may include such as Lower abdominal pain during urination, frequent urination. Difficulty urinating or interrupted urine flow, blood in the urine, cloudy or abnormally dark-coloured urine. Bladder stones begin to grow once excretory product is left within the bladder after urinating. This is usually because of an underlying medical condition that stops the bladder from completely emptying when using the toilet.

Track-12: Surgery for Renal Disease

Nephrectomy is the surgical removal of a kidney, performed to treat variety of urinary organ diseases together with kidney cancer. It is conjointly done to remove a healthy urinary organ from a living or deceased donor, once a part of a urinary organ transplant procedure. The phases of kidney disease are controlled by the glomerular filtration rate and by this process the kidneys filter the blood, removing excess wastes and fluids. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) may be a calculation that determines however well the blood is filtered by the kidneys. They are Acute kidney disease is the sudden loss of kidney function that happens when high levels of waste products of the body's metabolism accumulate in the blood. Chronic nephropathy may be a steady advancement of lasting urinary organ ill that exacerbates over varied years. Pediatric nephropathy will influence kids in numerous ways that, going from treatable disorders without long term outcomes to life-threatening conditions. Polycystic Kidney Disease is characterized by the development of numerous kidney cysts, which cause variations in both the kidney structure and function.

• Partial nephrectomy

• Radical nephrectomy

• Bilateral nephrectomy

• Laparoscopic Surgery

• Percutaneous nephrolithotomy

• Regional lymphadenectomy

• Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy

• Renal hypertension

Track-13: Biomarkers of Kidney Diseases

Kidney bio-markers include serum creatinine (sCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), urinary albumin/protein and volume excretion. However, sCr or BUN cannot distinguish injury from hemodynamic changes in the kidney that lead to appropriate changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), particularly when the changes are acute. At present, serum creatinine, which is used to calculate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), is the most commonly used marker of renal function. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) remains the perfect marker of excretory organ operates. Other bio markers like proteinuria might precede excretory organ operate decline and have incontestable to possess robust associations with illness progression and outcomes.

• Urinary angiotensinogen

• Urinary microRNA

• serum creatinine

• Blood urea nitrogen

• Cystatin C

• Asymmetric dimethylarginine

• β-trace protein

Track-14: Cardiovascular Impacts of Kidney Diseases

Heart failure, affects the kidney through the backward and the forward failure effects. Systemic Venous congestion results in an increase in the capillary pressure, transudation into interstitial spaces with decrease in effective circulating volume. In addition, underlying conditions that cause renal disease, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, put people at risk for cardiovascular disease. Patients with chronic kidney disease are at considerably increased risk for cardiovascular disease and sudden cardiac death. One mechanism underlying increased cardiovascular risk in patients with renal failure includes over activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Multiple human and animal studies have shown that central sympathetic outflow is inveterately elevated in patients with each end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

• Anemia

• Diabetes

• High blood pressure

• High homocysteine levels

Renal nutrition is concerned with ensuring that kidney patients eat the proper foods to form chemical analysis economical and improve health. Renal Nutrition may be outlined as a diet recommended in chronic renal failure and that is meant to manage the consumption of macromolecule, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, and fluids. Because the kidneys of individuals on dialysis are incapable to cope with excess fluid and different metabolic wastes.

Metabolism is the chemical reactions involved in retaining the dwelling nation of the cells and the organism. Metabolism can be quite simply divided into classes:

Catabolism - the breakdown of molecules to get energy

Anabolism - the synthesis of all compounds required through the cells.

• Blood urea nitrogen

Track-17: Glomerular Disorders

Glomerular disorders occur by itself or could also be related to an underlying medical condition that affects alternative organ systems, like lupus, diabetes, or sure infections. Glomerular sickness will develop suddenly (called Acute), or develop slowly over an amount of years (called Chronic). Treatment of glomerular disorder depends upon its cause and sort. Many diseases affect kidney function by attacking the glomeruli, the small units inside the excretory organ wherever blood is clean. Glomerular diseases damage the glomeruli, permitting macromolecule and typically red blood cells drip into the urine.

• Glomerulonephritis

• Glomerulosclerosis

• Bacterial endocarditis

• Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

• Membranous nephropathy

Track-18: Renal Replacement Therapy

Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is the therapy that replaces normal blood-filtering function of the kidneys. It is used once the kidneys don't seem to be operating well that is termed renal failure and includes acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Renal replacement medical aid includes dialysis (hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis), hemofiltration, and hemodiafiltration, that measure numerous ways of filtration of blood with or while not machines. Renal replacement medical aid conjointly includes kidney transplantation, that is that the final variety of replacement in this the previous kidney is replaced by a donor kidney.

• Intermittent hemodiafiltration (IHDF)

Track-19: Kidney Transplantation

A kidney transplant is a surgical method that’s done to treat Kidney Failure. This surgery is a lifesaving choice for thousands of patients with end stage renal disease. Kidney transplantation or renal transplantation is that the surgical operation of a kidney into a patient with end-arrange kidney diseases. Kidney transplantation is often named deceased donor called living donor or cadaveric transplantation relying upon the wellspring of the giver organ. Living donor kidney transplants are formerly differentiated as non-related living transplants or, living related transplants contingent upon whether a biological relationship exists between the kidney donor and kidney recipient.

Track-20: Nephrology Diagnosis and Treatment

Diagnostic imaging may be a strategy and procedure of constructing the visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and demonstrative intervention. The treatment for renal disorder differs depending on what phase the renal disorder is and alternative individual factors. For those whose kidneys no longer function well enough on their own without renal therapy, specialist will typically recommend either renal dialysis or a kidney transplant. Nephrological treatment consists of steroid medications, blood products, plasma exchange and dialysis. Kidney complications will have important impact on quality and length of life, and then psychological support, health education and advanced care coming up with play key roles in nephrology.

Global Market Analysis on Renal Disorders:

In 2009, 7.5% of qualitative analysis patients were treated with PD; by 2016, the data point had inflated to ten.0%. And according to the United States Renal Data System & 10.5% of dialysis patients with new Medical Evidence Report were treated with PD. Although metallic element could be a nice modality for several patients, clinical complications like tube malfunctions, peritonitis, and ultrafiltration failure do occur, and lead some patients to transition from PD to hemodialysis (HD). According to knowledge bestowed at ASN urinary organ Week 2018, on the brink of one in six patients United Nations agency started on metallic element in 2015 had switched to HD among one year of initiation. With a growing share of incident qualitative analysis patients treated with metallic element, and a stable rate of conversion from PD to HD, at least during the first year of PD, the net result is that the amount of patients switch from metallic element to HD is steady increasing. During 2015, almost 12,000 patients switched from metallic element to HD.

Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis Market Analysis:

End-stage renal disease (ESRD), also known as kidney failure, is the last stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD). During ESRD/CKD, kidneys lose their filtering ability, making dialysis a primary mode of treatment. Globally, around 2 million people are affected with ESRD each year.

According to the US Renal Data System’s 2018 Annual Report, as of December 2016, there were 124,675 newly reported cases of ESRD; 63.1% of prevalent ESRD patients received hemodialysis (HD), and 7.0% were treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). According to the International Society of Nephrology, 1 out of 3 people in the general population is at an increased risk of CKD, with the global estimated CKD prevalence worldwide varying from 11% in North America and 12% in Europe to as low as 7% in South Asia and 8% in Africa. The growing patient population for ESRD may be a major issue driving the expansion of the chemical analysis market.

The Asia Pacific is one of the major revenue-generating regions in the hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis market. China, India, and Japan are the major countries responsible for the high growth of this regional market owing to factors such as the increasing per capita income, improving healthcare infrastructure, and supportive government activities in these emerging countries. Furthermore, the increasing geriatric population, the growing incidence of ESRD, and the rising acceptance of home hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are also driving the growth of this regional market.

Nephrology and Urology Devices Market Analysis:

The global medical specialty and urogenital medicine devices market size was calculable at USD 18.03 billion in 2016 and is anticipated to develop at a CAGR of 7.1% over the forecast amount. Increasing prevalence of kidney failure and end-stage renal diseases has resulted in clinical urgency for devices that can improve existing patient outcomes and curb long-term costs associated with treatment of kidney diseases.
