Cuba advocates for sustainability and development in nephrology

Havana, Mar 9 (Prensa Latina) Cuba marks World Kidney Day on Thursday under the premise of sustainability and development in nephrology in order to improve its citizens' quality of life.

The date aims to raise awareness among all citizens globally so that they can detect any early ailment when there is still time to solve or delay the situation.

Cuban authorities currently work to replace hemodialysis machines that have long been in operation.

More than 50 services of the National Nephrology Network have allowed a qualitative change in the sustainability and quality of care to patients with chronic kidney disease.

Cuba is also working on expanding dialytic kidney replacement therapies.

In 2022, the French Embassy in Havana and a representative of the French Development Agency granted a loan for a cooperation project in this field.
