Prachuap Khiri Khan Hospital celebrated World Kidney Day 2023

World Kidney Day 2023 was held at Prachuap Khiri Khan Hospital, with Dr. Arak Wongworachat, Director of Prachuap Khiri Khan Hospital, officiating at the opening ceremony.

A group of people with diabetes is also included, as is a group of people with high blood pressure. Which of the following is classified as a high risk group for developing chronic kidney disease in the future? If patients with diabetes and high blood pressure do not take proper care of themselves, they may develop uncontrollable diseases. Finally, the disease progresses to the end stage, which necessitates hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. It is therefore critical to find ways to prevent patients with chronic kidney disease from developing chronic kidney failure too soon or to slow the deterioration of the kidneys.

The hospital was confident that everyone who took part in the activities today would learn more. Increase your awareness and focus on self-care.
