Around one in ten people suffer from chronic kidney disease. It often remains undetected for a long time because symptoms only appear when a large part of the kidney function has already been lost. On World Kidney Day on 12 March, the Department of Internal Medicine III at Jena University Hospital (JUH) is therefore drawing attention to risk factors, early detection options and kidney protection.
From 11 am to 2 pm, doctors from the Department of Nephrology will be providing information at a campaign stand in the main hall of the hospital at the Lobeda site and from 1 pm to 1.30 pm in a lecture on ?Check-Up: The filter in focus. Our kidneys—underestimated but vital?. At the centre of the campaign is a circuit with various stations where visitors can determine their individual risk of kidney failure.
