“In this context, I would like to mention that during the operation of our Centre, we got 145 new patients, which is 3 out of 4 patients who began treatment with haemodialysis in Moldova in 2016,” said Mr. Petru Cepoida, medical director of BB-Dializa SRL.

Patients, coming from abroad within the program “Vacation Dialysis”, launched in June 2016, mentioned that services provided by Chisinau Dialysis Centre are of the same or even better quality than those of the Dialysis Centres in their native country.

The capacity of the Centre is more than 300 patients but, in a short time, due to the equipping of the Centre with additional medical equipment, there will follow an increase of capacity of up to 440 patients, which places this dialysis unit among  the largest Dialysis Centres of Europe.

The Centre has implemented an integrated information system that automates registration of medical processes offering the data on line.

The evaluation of clinical indicators demonstrated that a more effective dialysis and dietary advice led to the disappearance of pre-dialysis hyper-kalmia to one third of patients.  Complex anti-anaemic therapy conditioned the achievement of  haemoglobin target-values to 2/3 of dialysis patients, as compared with the indicator 1 to 14 patients,  registered at the time of transfer to BB-Dialysis Centre. Reduction of uremic intoxication and administration of erythropoietin have resulted in a significant improvement of  health of 2/3 of patients.
