Mainly we care about patients with acute and chronic renal failure, as well as patients with various autoimmune diseases (autoimmune anemia, myasthenia gravis, demyelinating disease and others). In cooperation with the Department of Acute Medicine (OAM), we provide temporary vascular access (dialysis cannulas and tunneled catheters).
