World Kidney Day is an international initiative to raise awareness of the importance of early detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease, which is on the rise around the world. World Kidney Day is observed on the second Thursday of March, and various awareness campaigns are held in more than 100 countries around the world.
Kitano Hospital is planning an event that will be open to people who think they have nothing to do with kidney disease, and will provide an opportunity for them to take a fun look at their own bodies, and also an opportunity for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is estimated to affect up to 5% of the population, to take a positive approach.
Why not take a fresh look at this silent organ, the kidney?
