Welcome Message

The International Society for Hemodialysis (ISHD) was formed in 1999 by a group of world-renowned nephrologists who believed that the science and clinical practice of Hemodialysis was being overlooked by the other major societies and journals in favor of molecular biology and other basic science-focused research endeavors. Their vision was to develop a society and journal focused primarily on the practice of clinical Hemodialysis.

In the short time our society has been active, we have accomplished many things. Our membership is steadily growing with members from throughout the world. Our journal, Hemodialysis International, has grown from a single issue to five issues per year, with plans for supplements targeted at specific issues related to Hemodialysis. Over the past few years, the journal has grown in prestige and influence, has been accepted into the Index Medicus and can boast of a steadily rising impact factor. Our goals for the near future are ambitious. We want to expand our membership at least 10-fold. We expect to form alliances with various international Hemodialysis societies around the world; we already have such an alliance with the Indian Society of Hemodialysis and are in discussion with other societies including ASDIN and ISN.
