Abstract

L’insufficienza renale è una patologia comune, insidiosa e trattabile. La sua prevalenza e la spesa sanitaria a essa correlata sono in rapida espansione. Dal 2006 la Giornata Mondiale del Rene (GMR) intende sensibilizzare la popolazione generale e i governi alla consapevolezza di questa malattia e all’importanza della sua prevenzione. Negli ultimi anni la Nefrologia italiana per mezzo della SIN e della FIR ha contribuito attivamente alla celebrazione della GMR, incontrando la popolazione direttamente nelle piazze e nelle scuole per offrire semplici informazioni riguardo ai fattori di rischio insieme alla misurazione della pressione arteriosa e a un esame urine estemporaneo. Quest’anno la GMR è stata celebrata il 14 Marzo ed è stata preceduta da un’estesa campagna di sensibilizzazione su giornali, radio e televisioni. Più di 100 Nefrologie hanno partecipato in 118 città, aderendo a uno dei progetti “Camper-Gazebo-Tenda”, “Scuole Medie Superiori”, “Ambulatori Porte Aperte” o ad altre iniziative spontanee. L’articolo ripercorre il significato della GMR e l’esperienza italiana dalle sue origini a oggi.

Abstract

Renal disease is common, insidious and treatable. The prevalence of chronic kidney disease and its cumulative global costs are rapidly increasing. Since 2006 the World Kidney Day (WKD) has worked to raise awareness of the disease and the importance of its prevention within communities and institutions. Italian Nephrology, through the joint action of the Italian Society of Nephrology (SIN) and the Italian Kidney Foundation (FIR) has worked to convey the message during WKD celebrations,meeting the community directly in Italian town squares and high schools, where informative material was provided together with blood pressure and urine dip-stick testing. This year, the WKD was held on March 14th, and was preceded by an extensive program of information broadcast on TV and radio and published in newspapers and magazines. More than 100 nephrology units in 118 cities were either involved in at least one of the programs organized in Italian town squares, high schools and renal clinics, or provided other spontaneous initiatives. This paper describes the history of the Italian experience in the WKD from its beginning in 2006 until the present day.
