Renal Registry and Peritoneal Dialysis Management: The Hong Kong Perspective

The Hong Kong Renal Registry (HKRR) is an electronic paperless registry that services as database for patients on various renal replacement therapies in the territory. The database consists of demographic data, dialysis and transplant treatments, complications, and inquiries and reports. The HKRR can be helpful for individual patient's management, for renal center management, and for territory-wide management.
