Haryana renal transplant success rate hits 100%

Chandigarh: Haryana state hospitals have delivered nearly 1.9 lakh free dialysis sessions over the past year, as the region's premier medical institute recorded a 100% success rate for its expanded renal transplant programme.The surge in service delivery at PGIMS-Rohtak and various district hospitals marks a significant expansion in the state's capacity to treat chronic kidney disease (CKD) under a govt-funded universal care initiative. Additional chief secretary for health and family welfare, Sumita Misra, said the programme had seen consistent progress since its inception in early 2023. Between Feb 2023 and April 2026, the PGIMS nephrology department completed 34 renal transplants without a single failure.Misra said: "The transplant programme began with two successful cadaveric transplants and has since expanded steadily. We saw 10 transplants in 2024, 17 in 2025, and four have already been completed in 2026, reflecting improved clinical capacity and growing public trust." While the programme was initially supported by cadaveric donations, health officials noted a recent rise in living donor transplants, which Misra attributed to increased community awareness and participation.The state's comprehensive CKD strategy includes free dialysis services, specialist care, patient intake, and infrastructure. Of the 1.9 lakh free dialysis sessions provided statewide in the 2025-26 period, PGIMS-Rohtak alone conducted 20,466, providing free consultations and medicines. The institute registered between 400 and 500 new chronic kidney disease patients in the last year.Dialysis facilities are now operational at PGIMS-Rohtak and all district-level hospitals across Haryana. Under standing orders from the chief minister, the state govt continues to provide essential medicines and diagnostic support at no cost to CKD patients, aiming to reduce the financial burden of long-term renal care.
