Anjo Kyoritsu Clinic

About

Anjo Kyoritsu Clinic is a clinic specializing in hemodialysis and internal medicine, located in Daito-cho, Anjo City, Aichi Prefecture. By implementing thoroughly managed dialysate purification and safe, reliable dialysis systems, the clinic strives to improve the quality of dialysis and supports patients' "healthy dialysis life" as a team. Through a cooperative system with Nagoya Kyoritsu Hospital and regional affiliated hospitals, a comprehensive framework is in place to handle everything from the prevention to treatment of dialysis complications. The clinic has pioneered foot care for dialysis patients with diabetes, actively pursuing early detection and treatment as a countermeasure against PAD (peripheral arterial disease). They promote exercise therapy to prevent loss of lower limb muscle strength and muscle mass, evaluating effectiveness through regular physical fitness tests. In nutrition guidance by registered dietitians, they conduct individual consultations and dialysis diet cooking practice sessions. High-concentration carbon dioxide therapy contributes to improved blood circulation, helping to reduce lower limb amputation rates and improve prognoses for PAD patients through foot baths. "Ultra-pure" dialysate free of impurities suppresses blood pressure drops and itching during treatment, being gentle on the body and preventing dialysis complications. Through regular examinations including blood tests, X-rays, vascular ultrasounds, ABPI, and ECGs, they strive for early detection of complications, and CT, MRI, and cardiac catheterization examinations are possible at affiliated hospitals. The clinic actively introduces fully automated consoles and electronic medical records, providing safe and reliable dialysis treatment while increasing staff time for patient communication and various types of care through operational efficiency. LDL apheresis therapy and PTA (percutaneous transluminal angioplasty) for shunt complications are also performed. Valuing communication with each patient and focusing on relieving mental and physical anxiety, the clinic aims to provide "medical care with heart."
