A critique of clinical guidelines for detection of individuals with chronic kidney disease.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its association with cardiovascular mortality is increasingly regarded as a global public health problem. International efforts to combat this 'epidemic' have led to fundamental changes not only in the way we measure renal function but also how we classify and manage CKD. Clinical guidelines have established the use of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)...
متن کاملGlomerular filtration rate in general small animal practice.
Quantitative evaluation of renal function in small animal general practice has remained essentially unchanged for decades. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is considered the gold standard for evaluating functional renal mass in veterinary medicine. For practical and financial reasons, GFR testing was previously available only at referral veterinary hospitals. Newer techniques for estimating GFR...
متن کاملThe validity of searching routinely collected general practice computer data to identify patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD): a manual review of 500 medical records.
BACKGROUND We conducted a search of 12 practices' routinely collected computer data in three localities across the UK and found that 4.9% of the registered population had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (equivalent to stages 3-5 CKD). Only 3.6% of these were known to have renal disease. Although UK general practice is computerized, important clinical data m...
متن کاملErratum to: Impact of medication adherence on renal function in comorbid patients with type 2 diabetes and depression: protocol for a cohort study
BACKGROUND Prevention, or slowing the progression, of diabetic nephropathy is one of the important goals in diabetes care. Although the impact of depression is a concern in patients with diabetes, it is unknown whether there is an association between adherence to hypoglycemic medication and the decline of renal function in comorbid patients with diabetes and depression. We will conduct a cohort...
متن کاملAutomatic Reporting of Creatinine-based Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in Children: Is This Feasible?
Creatinine, although widely used as a biomarker to measure renal function, has long been known as an insensitive marker of renal impairment. Patients with reduced renal function can have a creatinine level within the normal range, with a rapid rise when renal function is significantly reduced. As of 1976, the correlation between height, the reciprocal of creatinine, and measured glomerular filt...
