WCN25-2046 KIDNEY TRANSPLANTS IN NEPALI MIGRANT WORKERS: HEALTH AND EMPLOYMENT INSIGHTS

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a significant global health issue affecting 10-15% of the population, with cases surpassing 697.3 million in 2019, more than doubling since 1990. In Nepal, CKD prevalence has also surged, from 726,897 cases in 1990 to 1,895,080 in 2019. This increase is reflected in rising CKD-related deaths. Among Nepali migrant workers, harsh working conditions further elevate the risk of CKD and End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). Despite this, specific data on CKD in this population is scarce.

Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a significant global health issue affecting 10-15% of the population, with cases surpassing 697.3 million in 2019, more than doubling since 1990. In Nepal, CKD prevalence has also surged, from 726,897 cases in 1990 to 1,895,080 in 2019. This increase is reflected in rising CKD-related deaths. Among Nepali migrant workers, harsh working conditions further elevate the risk of CKD and End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). Despite this, specific data on CKD in this population is scarce.
