When severe loss of kidney function occurs, it must be replaced through transplant or dialysis. Dialysis is most common, either in the form of haemodialysis (HD) or as peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Many patients on dialysis can have a reasonably normal life and can travel, exercise, and work.

Diaverum’s focus is haemodialysis, but we offer a portfolio of treatments ranging from preventive care, peritoneal dialysis and home care to coordination of patients’ comorbidities and transplantation services.
