Essentials of Percutaneous Dialysis Interventions

Abstract

The prevalence of end stage renal disease (ESRD) in Singapore is high, and is on an upward trend due to the high incidence of diabetes and an aging population. The crude rates (CR) for ESRD incidence increased from 213.2 per million population (pomp) in 1999 to 295.3 pomp in 2006 [1].
