The theme of the Congress is "From Hemodialysis Unit
to ICU"
Hong Kong, a city where the East meets the West, is the
most appropriate place for sharing of experience. Hemodialysis
(HD) is the preferable renal replacement therapy in most
countries. It is important to exchange experience and continue
the development in HD research, clinical management and
care of HD patients. This Congress is designed to provide
a balanced curriculum that will meet the needs of renal
health care team and intensivists. The content provides
basic training, continuous education, as well as highlights
of frontiers of clinical and basic science development related
to HD, CRRT and renal aspect of ICU patients. It will also
stimulate critical thinking and discussion on controversies
in HD and ICU to inspire directions in future research.
Target participants, clinicians and basic scientists, pediatric
and adult nephrologists, intensivists, doctors, nurses and
dietitians would all benefit from this Congress.
