End-Stage Kidney Disease In Areas Of Armed Conflicts: Challenges And Solutions
SEMINARS IN NEPHROLOGY(2020)
摘要
Violent and protracted conflicts are disastrous to civilian populations and their health care systems. The complex requirements of caring for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) dialysis patients in such contexts pose unique challenges. Dialysis is procedurally complex and resource-intensive. Delivering ESKD care in man-made conflict settings presents added challenges beyond what is required in natural disasters and resource-limited situations. In this article, we review the medical literature on, and document experience with, managing dialysis ESKD patients in conflict zones. We discuss the impact of war on patient outcomes, dialysis system infrastructure, operational funding, and risks to providers and organizations. This article provides recommendations to health care providers, educators, and policymakers on how to mitigate associated challenges. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
