Why the study?
Cardiovascular disease risk is notably increased as chronic kidney disease progresses and kidney-specific risk factors come into play.
Patients with chronic kidney disease should be acknowledged as having high cardiovascular risk requiring particular medical attention.
Supports integrated cardio-renal care in CKD; leaves open optimal intervention timing in progressive disease.
Background: Since the first description of the association between chronic kidney disease and heart disease, many epidemiological studies have confirmed and extended this finding. As chronic kidney disease progresses, kidney-specific risk factors for cardiovascular events and disease come into play. As a result, the risk for cardiovascular disease is notably increased in individuals with chronic kidney disease. Objective: To study the relationship between importance of CVD in determining of CKD patients. Conclusion: Cardiovascular disease is frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated in patients with chronic kidney disease. This group of patients should, therefore, be acknowledged as having high cardiovascular risk that needs particular medical attention at an individual level.
