It is estimated that the annual incidence of End-Stage Renal Failure (ESRF)
in Abu Dhabi is about 74 patients per million population. This is approximately
the same as reported from Saudi Arabia and Europe. Due to difficulties that
exist in screening the true population of the Emirates as well as other factors
like poor referral, this true incidence could be underestimated.
All patients with ESRF who are otherwise fit are advised to receive renal
transplantation as the treatment of choice, while those who do not have suitable
donors are suggested to other modalities of renal replacement therapy, such as
haemodialysis. This text focus on talking about Haemodialysis in Adu Dhabi,
United Arab Emirates.

For patients with ESRD in United Arab Emirates, Dialysis or renal
transplantation is the only treatment option despite some severe
complications.
With the development of modern medical technology, nephrologists in China
create a new treatment-immunotherapy-for patients with ESRD. Many foreign
patients has been treated well with this therapy and their interval of dialysis
has been obviously prolonged. In some cases, patients even can get rid of
dialysis, and live a full life with their own kidneys.
Certainly, the curative effects depends on the individual illness condition.
