Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive condition that can lead to kidney failure and the requirement for renal dialysis or transplantation. Early-stage CKD is often missed because the disorder is initially asymptomatic; hence, many patients with CKD already have symptomatic advanced disease (Stages G4–G5) at the time of diagnosis. This is an important issue because the drugs available for the treatment of CKD are most effective when given during the early stages of the disease (Stages G1–G3). EMJ conducted interviews in July 2022 with two key opinion leaders, Navdeep Tangri from the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada, and Luca De Nicola from the University of Campania Luigi Vanvitell, Naples, Italy, both of whom have a wealth of experience in the management of patients with CKD. The experts provided important insights into the ongoing REVEAL-CKD study, which was designed to explore the global prevalence of undiagnosed Stage G3 CKD. This article describes the main findings of the REVEAL-CKD study published to date and their implications. Possible approaches to improving the diagnosis of CKD are also discussed.
