The goal is to improve symptom management, disease modification, and person-centered approaches while also recognizing the heterogeneity of CKD. The fact that new therapies exist and others are being evaluated heralds an exciting time for people living with #kidney diseases.

🌟 Exciting News in Kidney Disease Management! 🌟 📚 Just Released: A Comprehensive Guidance Document on Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Management 🔍 Multinational population studies based on CKD-PC 2023 analyses highlight the incremental increase in the association of all CKD complications with worse categories of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria. 💡 Key Highlights: -Emphasis on the importance of detecting CKD early, especially in high-risk populations. -Recommendations for accurate assessment of GFR and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR). -Importance of using validated risk equations to estimate absolute risk of kidney failure. -Comprehensive discussion on delaying CKD progression and managing complications. -Insights into cardiovascular risk factor modification and drug stewardship in CKD. -Optimal models of care, including the value of multidisciplinary teams and advanced care planning. 🔬 Newer data on treating hyperuricemia were evaluated, with no support for targeting hyperuricemia in the absence of symptoms. 📊 Tables provided for "expected" values for common laboratory tests by eGFR to aid in identifying aberrant values. 🚀 Conclusion: This guidance document offers exciting new approaches to CKD management, aiming to improve symptom management, disease modification, and person-centered care. #KidneyDisease #CKDManagement #Healthcare #MedicalResearch #PatientCare #HealthTech #Nephrology #ChronicDiseaseManagement
