World Kidney Day 2025: Kauvery Hospital Bengaluru Launches Lifesaving Initiatives for CKD Awareness & Access
India grapples with a staggering CKD burden, with an estimated 15–17% of adults suffering from chronic kidney ailments. Karnataka mirrors this national crisis, where late diagnosis, limited access to screening, and prohibitive treatment costs exacerbate mortality rates. Alarmingly, over 60% of patients discover their kidney dysfunction incidentally during advanced stages, often requiring immediate dialysis or transplantation. Lack of awareness, socioeconomic barriers, and inadequate healthcare infrastructure further deepen the challenge, leaving millions vulnerable to preventable complications
Kauvery Hospital is addressing these challenges head-on through targeted outreach and affordability-driven care solutions. On World Kidney Day 2025, Kauvery Hospitals Electronic City reaffirmed its commitment to renal care by launching transformative initiatives aimed at advancing equitable healthcare access. Under this year’s theme, “Kidney Health for All: Advancing Equitable Access to Care and Optimal Medication Practice,” our hospital took significant strides to combat India’s growing chronic kidney disease (CKD) burden.
