THE SIGNIFICANCE OF CKD RISK FACTORS IN ITS PROGRESSION AT THE LEVEL OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE

Abstract

Relevance of the study. In today's world, many studies are focusing on the development and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). According to the World Health Organization, kidney disease is classified as one of the socially significant non-communicable diseases. In the history of medical science at the beginning of the 21st century, the US National Kidney Foundation (NKF) was the first official organization that paid attention to the problem of chronic kidney failure. Numerous studies on the development and determination of the risk of progression, as well as various types of therapy for chronic kidney failure showed that terminological concepts stood as the basis for the development of the concept of chronic kidney disease. The prevalence of CKD is high and is not inferior to the prevalence of such socially significant diseases as chronic heart failure, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension.
