Overview

CKD underrecognition in primary care heightens CV risk; leaves optimal detection strategies for nondiabetic causes open.

Key Points

  • This review aims to summarize the latest guidelines for detecting and managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) in primary care settings.
  • Reviewed current guidelines on CKD management in primary care.
  • Emphasized early diagnosis through estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria testing.
  • Highlighted effective interventions and treatment options for CKD and associated cardiovascular risks.
  • Early diagnosis of CKD improves patient outcomes and reduces long-term risks.
  • Lifestyle changes and medications, including statins and SGLT2 inhibitors, are recommended for CKD management.
  • Kidney Failure Risk Equation aids in identifying high-risk patients for better referral to nephrology.
