Critical Care Nephrology

• The centre for nephrology is a major participant in intensive care by providing care to ICU patients with acute renal failure, volume disturbances or electrolyte ad acid base disorder.
• We have several techniques for treatment of acute renal failure such as allow continuous venovenous hemofiltration, hemoadsorption, plasmapheresis etc. depending on patient’s requirement and underlying disease. Much of the work with ICU patients is related to the remarkably active procedures (IV CONTRAST FOR Angioplasty/ Post CABG) and acute renal failures following polytrauma, multiorgan failure of any origin etc. Department is equipped for Almost all kind of extracorporeal therapies.

Dialysis Services

Parivar Super Speciality Hospital & Research Centre, Gwalior not only provides conventional haemodialysis but also CRRT, Hemofiltration, Plasma exchanges/ Plasma Pheresis etc. The department has the latest computerized bicarbonate haemodialysis machines with volumetric ultrafiltration and adjustable sodium facility to ensure patient safety.

• We provide 24x7 dialysis services. We have isolated units for hepatitis B and HIV infected patients.
• Continuous monitoring of sick patients on dialysis is done throughout the procedure with the help of a highly specialised monitor. More than 50 haemodialysis are performed per month (Round the clock dialysis of 4 hours each) including ICU dialysis, highly trained technical and nursing staff under the guidance of dialysis medical officer and overall supervision of senior consultants.
