Abstract
With migration rising, the pediatric nephrology community is faced with challenges concerning the management of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in the pediatric refugee population. Data on the care of the pediatric refugee cohort on renal replacement therapy (RRT) is not available. A survey conducted by us in 2018 showed that the group of refugee children arriving to Germany during the years 2015-2017 accounts for approximately 20% of the total pediatric dialysis population in Germany. Provision of (medical) care for these children and their families is often hampered by psychosocial problems, cultural differences, language barriers, and administrative issues. Treating centers need to provide additional human as well as financial and logistic resources. In this educational review, we raise awareness and discuss possible challenges occurring in the treatment of refugee children with ESKD.
