This brochure tells you more about the kidneys, their functions, their diseases and how best to protect them. When their function declines, other organs suffer, especially the cardiovascular system and brain. And the quality of life and life expectancy decrease. In many cases, however, the decline in kidney function can be slowed down or even prevented.<\/p>\n

This brochure provides affected children and adolescents, their relatives, their environment and all interested parties with information about the kidneys: how they work, what they do and what treatment they need when they are ill.<\/p>\n
It is intended to educate and arouse curiosity about this special organ and its role in the overall miracle of the body.<\/p>\n

There are various methods for this, such as hemodialysis (blood purification) or peritoneal dialysis (peritoneal dialysis). Hemodialysis is usually carried out in specialized centers. Patients usually have to visit such a center several times a week. However, not everyone lives in the immediate vicinity of such a center. For many people, visiting a center involves a journey. This incurs travel costs that are not usually covered by health insurance. Patients who require hemodialysis are therefore faced with financial burdens.<\/p>\n This study, launched and funded by the Swiss Kidney Foundation, is investigating the impact of travel costs on patients and their families. Measures are now being taken to better inform those affected about support options.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” background_enable_image=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.nierenstiftung.ch\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/dialyse-1024×682.jpg” title_text=”dialyse” admin_label=”image Untersuchung zu den Fahrtkosten von Dialyse-Patient*innen” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_fullwidth_header text_orientation=”center” button_one_text=”Donate now” button_one_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjExMTcifX0=@” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_one_url” _module_preset=”default” custom_button_one=”on” button_one_text_size=”28px” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”2px||4px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_fullwidth_header][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f3f3f3″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Informationen und links” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#EE7203″ text_font_size=”38px” text_line_height=”1.2em” text_font_size_tablet=”56px” text_font_size_phone=”28px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Frequently asked questions<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_toggle title=”What will my donation be used for?” icon_color=”#B61650″ toggle_icon=”L||divi||400″ use_icon_font_size=”on” icon_font_size=”40px” open_icon_color=”#B61650″ open_toggle_icon=”K||divi||400″ open_use_icon_font_size=”on” open_icon_font_size=”40px” admin_label=”Wo finde ich ein Spital mit einer Kindernephrologie Abteilung?” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_level=”h3″ title_font=”Rasa||||||||” title_font_size=”25px” custom_css_open_toggle=”content: %22%92e04b%22;” border_width_all=”0px” border_width_bottom=”1px” border_color_bottom=”#B61650″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Your donation enables us to implement projects for the early detection, education and support of kidney patients in Switzerland.
