Abstract

The war in Ukraine is now entering its ninth year, and a year has passed since the russian army invaded Ukraine on a large scale. A few months ago, the Ukrainian Renal Disaster Relief Committee of the Ukrainian Association of Nephrologists and Kidney Transplant Specialists was established and began its work to provide immediate support to kidney patients during the war. In this brief report, we present the first data collected on the number of patients receiving kidney replacement therapy, the possibility of enrolling new patients, and the availability of an autonomous electricity and water supply in all regions of Ukraine accessible for communication. In addition, we provide a brief analysis of the dynamics of the regional distribution of patients treated with kidney replacement therapy in the war year.
