How to improve the environmental impact in haemodialysis: small actions, big changes

KitNewCare has published the first edition of its newsletter, a new home for the project's progress, from hospital-level sustainability wins to upcoming conferences and free training for the wider kidney care community.

Five peer-reviewed abstracts accepted at the 63rd European Renal Association (ERA) Congress in Glasgow will put the KitNewCare consortium at the centre of Europe’s debate on how to make dialysis cleaner, safer and more affordable — without compromising patient care.

Kidney centres across Europe are joining forces with KitNewCare as new Associate Pilot Sites, helping to test and validate innovative solutions that aim to reduce the environmental footprint of kidney care while maintaining high-quality patient outcomes. Their participation marks an important step towards scaling sustainable kidney healthcare practices across diverse clinical settings and healthcare systems.
