Paediatric Dialysis Study Day

This study day is aimed at all doctors and nurses working with children on dialysis. We hope that it will encourage more centres to adopt HDF and HHD as standards of care.

This event is generously sponsored by EuDial (European Dialysis).

RCPCH has approved this event for up to 6 CPD credits, in accordance with the current RCPCH CPD Guidelines.

Date:

Thursday 13th June 2013

Location:

UCL Institute of Child Health, London.

Intensified dialysis treatments are required to reduce the very high morbidity and mortality associated with conventional hemodialysis. From the basic principles of dialysis and practical workshops to state-of-the-art lectures, this is your opportunity to hear experts discuss hemodiafiltration and home hemodialysis treatments in children.

This study day is aimed at all doctors and nurses working with children on dialysis. We hope that it will encourage more centres to adopt HDF and HHD as standards of care.
