Access Resources for Kidney Patients!

AAKP proudly recognizes October 19–25 as National Infection Prevention Week, reaffirming our commitment to protecting kidney patients, caregivers, and the professionals who serve them. Infections remain a leading cause of hospitalization and complications for people living with kidney disease, but simple actions—consistent hand hygiene, staying current on recommended vaccinations, safe catheter and access care, proper environmental cleaning, and staying home when ill—saves lives. All week, AAKP will share educational resources, patient voices, and practical tips.

Pocket Guide to Managing Infection Risks for Dialysis Patients with Central Venous Catheter (CVC) Access - If you are on dialysis, particularly hemodialysis, there is an increased risk of infections at the site where the dialysis access is placed. Individuals on long-term dialysis, who have a central venous catheter (CVC) as their form of vascular access are at an increased risk of exposure to Cather-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSIs). The Pocket Guide is a tool to help patients and caregivers have more effective dialogue with their healthcare teams.

Dear Colleagues & Friends,

It is with great pleasure and pride that we invite you to join us in Vilnius, Lithuania where the 51st EDTNA/ERCA International Conference will take place. The theme of our Conference is “Kidney Care in a challenging world – economic & sustainable implications”.

The theme highlights two main topics: economy and sustainability, which are related, sometimes in conflict. But as healthcare professionals we need to consider them as pivotal.

Our Conference will take place at the Radisson Blu Hotel Lietuva, which is a standing conference hotel located right by the city centre. Thanks to its unique and varied interior it is the ideal venue for organising conferences.

The UNESCO-listed medieval old town of Vilnius is one of Eastern Europe’s biggest and best preserved. Vilnius is a compact and walkable city, filled with urban green spaces and a healthy dose of impressive architecture, tasty eats and all kinds of exciting leisure activities. 46 % of Vilnius is made up of green spaces, so you can definitely expect a breath of fresh air.

Please join us at the 51st EDTNA/ERCA International Conference and experience our Scientific Programme, including Educational Sessions and Workshops. Meet our Industry Partners at the Exhibition, share experiences among each other, and meet old and new friends! We are very much looking forward to welcoming you to Vilnius.

EDTNA/ERCA President
