On 31 December prevalence 985 pmp, ranging 188 1906 (Portugal). peritoneal (114 pmp) home hemodialysis (28 highest Cyprus Denmark respectively. rate nearly zero some countries Spain (64 pmp). 28 five or more nephrologists, median percentage candidates who offered 2018 varied between none (Slovakia Slovenia) 20% (Finland) whereas (Slovenia) 15% (Hungary).
