چکیده
Detection is unsophisticated and currently inadequate; the guidance that 3 months is enough is not good enough and draws parallels with hypertension detection. Current evidence on intervention and effectiveness seems very light. I have asked everyone (including this journal) to provide me with a NNT for a patient with CKD III who need detecting and intervening with to prevent either a cardiovascular event or endstage renal failure and nobody has so far managed. Could I ask you? ‘So doctor, you want me to take more pills (or stop the only pills that give me a pain-free night’s sleep). What is the benefit to me if you do this? ... And don’t give me that politician speak ... give it to me straight.’ I fully understand the seriousness of chronic kidney disease and the cost and implications on patients. I am happy to share the truth with my patients but you need to find it and tell me it too.
