Nephrology and Kidney Disease Testing Services
Almost 75 million Americans are at risk for developing Chronic Kidney Diseases (CKD) as a result of hypertension or diabetes. Approximately 30 million Americans have CKD, but only about 3.6 million are currently aware that they have this condition. Timely chronic kidney disease (CKD) testing is key to early detection and diagnosis.
- The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) and the National Kidney Disease Education Program (NKEDP) recommend that people at high risk be screened for kidney disease.
- The NKF recommends that everyone with diabetes between the ages of 12 and 70 be screened at least once a year.
- Children with type 1 diabetes should be screened for kidney disease within 5 years of diagnosis while children with type 2 diabetes should be screened as soon as they are diagnosed. Both should then be screened for kidney disease once a year.
- At this time, there is no consensus on screening people who have no risk factors or symptoms.
