Detect CKD before it’s too late — use new toolbox to launch an early detection program
A new addition to the ISN-KDIGO CKD Early Identification & Intervention Toolkit offers step-by-step guidance for setting up and maintaining chronic kidney disease (CKD) early detection and intervention initiatives.
The “Starting and Sustaining Early CKD Detection and Intervention Programs Toolbox” outlines essential components for program design, from identifying at-risk populations and selecting testing methods to securing stakeholder support, engaging communities, and integrating care with other noncommunicable disease services. Each component includes a curated list of evidence-based resources adaptable to a range of healthcare contexts.
This toolbox is especially valuable for those working in settings where CKD early detection programs are underdeveloped or just taking shape. Users can explore resources within the component most relevant to their setting, helping them design effective and sustainable programs tailored to local needs.
This new resource is part of a broader toolkit developed by the ISN and KDIGO to support early CKD identification and intervention. The toolkit is aimed at kidney health professionals, primary care physicians, and nurses in primary care settings, helping them take action to address CKD early — when outcomes can be significantly improved.
