OTP Bank handed over scarce consumables for the amount of UAH 1 million to the "Kyiv City Center of Nephrology and Dialysis"

OTP Bank transferred to the "Kyiv City Center of Nephrology and Dialysis" scarce consumables for the acute hemodialysis machine for the amount of about UAH 1 million. The project was implemented on the platform of the OTP Bank Helps Ukraine charity initiative. Funds were donated by 170 benefactors from 16 countries.

Hemodialysis is the blood purification from toxic substances, the consequences of an infectious process, one of the most effective methods of helping with mine-explosive injuries (with a burn component included), due to the use of high-energy weapons. Another name for hemodialysis is "artificial kidney", because this device during the procedure replaces the function of the kidneys and partially the liver in detoxifying the body, removing toxins and excess fluid. The procedure of cleaning the blood outside the body of the wounded person allows to increase the survival in the case of severe trauma, burn disease, sepsis, which rank first among combat pathologies.
