Center for Advancement of Technology in Kidney Disease and Metabolic Disorders. The study examines the impact of different care practices and models across national centers and systemic policies on treatment outcomes along with microbial patterns and drug resistance and emergence of new organism infections from environment-borne, antibiotic-resistant and biofilm-producing microorganisms. Applying biomolecular technology such as gene sequencing and nanopore sequencing, storing data with an online database and bring technology deep-learning AI helps to find patient’s risk of infection in dialysis and hemodialysis patients with support from many partner organizations in the country. Exchange experiences with research teams from international research institutes and the International Dialysis Federation.

Research & Innovation Focus
Health and Well-Being + Health
Sustainable Society + Health
Health and Well-Being + Industry 4.0
Strategic Objectives
- To reduce the incidence culture-negative peritonitis of the country by using techniques high-throughput PCR is used to search for pathogens of infections in PD and HD patients in the country, selecting appropriate medicines or medical treatments. and is a regional leader in research on PD and HD in various fungal infections.
- To survey microbial patterns, drug resistance, cure rates, and complication rates associated with peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients in Thailand.
- To track infections caused by the environment Antimicrobial-resistant peritonitis occurs. and endotoxin-producing microorganisms in PD and HD patients. Disease trends and risk factors as well as health loss from infection and increase the cure rate of related infections and Improve national and global standards of care in the treatment of related infectious diseases.
