As part of the organization's 50th anniversary, dedicated to providing comprehensive support to people with chronic kidney disease and promoting organ donation.
Hospital del Mar's work in the diagnosis, care and treatment of people with chronic kidney disease, as well as its work in the field of kidney transplantation, particularly living-donor transplantation, was recognized during the 50th anniversary of the Ader Foundation. The hospital received one of the awards presented by the organization at the event commemorating its half-century of activity, held on October 18 at the CosmoCaixa Barcelona auditorium.
The event, 'Prevention, Personalization, Dialysis, Donation and Kidney Transplantation', featured the participation of leading professionals in the field, including Dr. Marta Crespo, Head of the Nephrology Department at Hospital del Mar and researcher at the Hospital del Mar Research Institute. Dr. Crespo gave a talk on the evaluation of transplant candidates, with a focus on living-donor transplantation, and also participated in a roundtable discussion on artificial intelligence in the future of kidney transplantation.
Last year, Hospital del Mar broke its all-time record for transplants. A total of 125 transplants were performed, surpassing 2,000 procedures carried out since 1979. The hospital ranks fourth among transplant centers in Catalonia and tenth in Spain.
