The final goal is to improve renal health through the development of activities for promotion, health education, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, oriented toward particular individuals, specific groups and the general population. The specific objectives are as follows: 1) increasing detection of CKD; 2) decreasing progression of CKD and associated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality; 3) decreasing iatrogeny due to contraindicated drugs or drugs used at an inappropriate dosing for the degree of kidney failure; and 4) reducing health care costs associated with the disease.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">STRATEGIES</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">This Renal Health Plan includes four basic strategic areas: <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Strategic area 1:</span> primary prevention in at-risk CKD patients. <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Strategic area 2:</span> care of the patient diagnosed with CKD. <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Strategic area 3:</span> training and research. Oriented towards the health professional and all groups involved with CKD. <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Strategic area 4:</span> communication and spreading of information. Oriented towards the general population and especially towards the healthy individual and health professional.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Strategies involve programmes and actions with Primary Care, patients, education at Undergraduate and Postgraduate levels of Medicine-Nephrology, collaboration with Scientific Societies, involvement with the Ministry of Health and Autonomous Communities, with Nursing Nephrology and Media Communications. All of this, the objective of this ambitious plan, will be with, because of and for the kidney patient.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">INTRODUCTION</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is defined as a decrease in kidney function, expressed by Glomerular Filtration (GF) estimated as < 60ml/min/1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> or as the presence of persistent kidney damage (proteinuria, alterations in urine sediment or in tests showing kidney image) for at least three months.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> CKD is recognized as a worldwide public health problem<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> which affects approximately 10% of the population. It is underdiagnosed, has significant morbidity and has an independent cardiovascular risk factor. CKD is treatable and potentially preventable. Additionally, presence of CKD complicates the evolution of any vascular event, and as the GF measurement decreases, prognosis of patients worsens, causing a higher rate of hospitalizations, cardiovascular complications and mortality.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> Regarding dialysis patients, their mortality is 500 times higher than the population with normal kidney function. Furthermore, the presence of albuminuria, independent from GF, has shown to be another important cardiovascular risk factor.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The CKD patient should be considered as having high vascular risk, as recognized by the most recent guidelines for treating arterial hypertension from the European Society of Hypertension and the European Society of Cardiology.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span> This vascular risk may be modified by early intervention of mechanisms of the kidney disease’s progression and with adequately controlled stricter treatment goals for arterial hypertension, reduction of albuminuria, strict metabolic control of glucose in diabetics, giving up smoking, avoiding being overweight and controlling dyslipidemia, among others.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In 2006, the International Society of Nephrology decided to alert professionals, health committees, patients and the general population of this problem through an annual celebration day called World Kidney Day, taking place in March. On this day, the message is sent out that CKD is common, often silent, very harmful and potentially treatable.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The social, health and economic significance of CKD is only known because of the impact of replacement therapy for kidney functioning (dialysis or transplant), but there are studies regarding the K/DOQI stage 3-4 CKD patient showing that patients with lower GF have higher hospitalization costs.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In October 2006, the KDIGO Organization (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes), published a document containing a series of recommendations which should be adopted worldwide in order to confront the problem of CKD in a rational way. The most highlighted ones are the following:<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">- Governments must adopt a health policy regarding CKD, working closely together with non-governmental organizations and private industries (at the regional, national and international level.) CKD should be incorporated into Public Health programmes.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">- Governments must support and fund programmes for the early diagnosis and follow-up of CRD including prevalence, incidence, evolution, care and education.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Thus, a renal health strategy for making professionals aware should be promoted, a strategy for renal health must be implemented which will effectively make healthcare professionals, patients and the general public acutely aware of the importance of being knowledgeable about kidney function, given the potential therapeutic and prognostic implications resulting from the early detection of this illness. Adequate knowledge and establishment of measures in these stages by the primary care doctor, is a treatment foundation of the renal health project.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In Spain, a benefit from collaboration between the Spanish Society of Clinical Chemistry, the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine and the Spanish Society of Nephrology has been the Consensus Documents published which provide unified and concisely defined criteria, estimation methods of kidney function and the referral of patients to Nephrology, and the combined-effort treatment of these patients and the prevention of renal and neurotoxicity complications.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">8,9</span> These documents are a tool incorporated into the renal health plan which helps to promote optimal treatment for CKD patients in the Spanish National Health System and will simplify standardization between the areas of Primary and Specialized care.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE IN SPAIN. DATA FROM THE EPIRCE STUDY AND OTHER STUDIES FROM THE SPANISH SOCIETY OF NEPHROLOGY</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Through its Strategic Action group, the Spanish Society of Nephrology has set a series of epidemiological studies in motion, some of which have already finished, which have provided clear definitions of the reality of CKD in Spain and its significance both in ambulatory care and in the hospital.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">EPIRCE (Epidemiology of Chronic Kidney Disease in Spain):</span> transversal and descriptive epidemiological study of a population cohort which has shown that: 9.16% of the Spanish population has CKD, with a GF < 60ml/min/1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> detected in 6.8%, and 21.7% for those 65 years or over.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">EROCAP (Silent Kidney Disease in Primary Care Centres):</span><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span> transversal multi-centre epidemiological study of a population treated in Primary Care Centres, which detected a CKD stages 3-5 prevalence of 21.3%. In patients of over 70 years, this prevalence increased to 33.7%. It should be highlighted that of the patients with a GF < 60ml/min, 37.3% had serum creatinine levels (SCr) in the laboratory normalcy range (silent kidney disease). This problem was found mainly in women.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">PIER:</span> incident patients with kidney disease in Nephrology Units of Spain. Epidemiological, multi-centre, transversal and descriptive study to find the degree of CKD in patients arriving to the Nephrology Department through referral to outside consultation or Emergency services. Of these, 65.8% had kidney failure (CKD stage 3, 39.5%; stage 4, 19.2%; stage 5, 7.1%).The majority of patients were sent from Primary Care (61.1%).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">MERENA:</span> morbidity and mortality in kidney disease in two cohorts of diabetic and non-diabetic adult patients with kidney failure, who were followed up by Nephrology consultations for five years. 1,129 patients were included, and the study finished in April 2009. The study shows high morbidity and mortality in CKD patients, with greater frequency in diabetics and stage 4 CKD patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">ERPHOS</span> (preliminary data pending validation): assessment of kidney disease in the Spanish population admitted to hospitals. Epidemiological, multi-centre, transversal and descriptive study. 14,785 patients were included, 28.4% of which had GF < 60ml/min, 13.1% had GF < 44ml/min, and for those over 80 years, prevalence of GF < 60ml/min was 42% in men and 59% in women.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">GERTRA </span>(preliminary data pending validation): degree of kidney disease in kidney transplant patients. 2,192 patients were included, 67% of which showed GF < 60ml/min (50.8% in stage 3, 13.9% in stage 4 and 2.3% in stage 5).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In addition, other studies have been carried out which focus on specific complications such as alterations of bone-mineral metabolism and anaemia.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Prevalence of kidney failure increases progressively with aging (22% for those over 64 years, 40% for those over 80), and also with other pathologies such as type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension and arteriosclerosis. The majority of patients with kidney failure have not been diagnosed, especially women, for whom the inefficiency of traditional measurement methods of kidney function (serum creatinine) becomes quite relevant for diagnosing kidney failure. Kidney failure patients usually have elevated vascular risk, with significant morbidity and mortality in follow-ups and are usually sent late to Nephrology Units.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">IMPORTANCE OF EARLY DETECTION OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Data from the EPIRCE study confirm that about 4 million people have CKD in Spain, and of these, more than half may have kidney failure at less than 60ml/min 1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. Currently, about 50,000 patients are in kidney replacement therapy. Half are in dialysis, and the rest have a functioning kidney transplant. This number increases 4% each year, which implies a very high social and economic cost.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">However, it seems apparent that not all patients with CKD will progress into needing dialysis or a transplant. International studies and data in Spain from the MERENA study confirm that CKD is a significant vascular risk factor, and many of these patients will die from vascular causes before attaining kidney replacement therapy.3,12 Early identification of these patients allows for long-term morbidity and mortality improvement and decreases costs for both the patient and health system. Reduced costs derive from early identification of reversible causes of kidney failure, reduced speed of kidney disease’s progress, reduced associated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and, in the case of advanced kidney disease (stages 4 and 5), the patient’s adequate preparation for Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Other patients, especially those of advanced age, can avoid advanced stages if correctly treated comprehensively and pharmacologically, avoiding drug iatrogenia.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">A recent meta-analysis studying mortality and hospitalizations of advanced CKD patients who were sent early or late to Nephrology Units and which included 12,749 patients, showed a higher risk of mortality (RR: 1.99) and more hospitalization days (12 days on average) for patients sent late.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Therefore, it is necessary to identify the population at risk of developing CKD, which could benefit from a screening through simple analytical tests. The at-risk population included people over 55 years, hypertensive or diabetic patients, those with antecedents of a cardiovascular event, or family members of kidney patients. There are a few screening programmes which are both for the general and selected population, and the most efficient programme is yet to be decided considering available health resources and characteristics of the population to be evaluated. A study in an American population without hypertension or diabetes has shown that the screening is cost-effective from 60 years onward ($53,372 per QALY saved). For hypertensive patients, cost-effectiveness is much greater, even if the study is done from 30 years onward ($26,320 per QALY saved). In the programme of albuminuria detection of the entire Dutch population, the calculated cost was €16,700 for each year of life saved.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">14-16</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Initiatives should be established which increase health professionals and the general population’s awareness of the frequency and importance of early CKD detection. Awareness is especially important among Primary Care doctors, and especially when there are various circumstances which are of great interest and are related to CKD, and these are normally not taken into account at the time of assessing cost-effectiveness of early detection.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">DRUGS AND CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In daily clinical practice, the prescription of renal elimination drugs commonly occurs without knowing the patient’s GF, and therefore, without adjusting based on GF, and this causes a risk adverse side effects due to overdosing. Furthermore, there are nephrotoxic drugs which should be avoided in kidney failure treatment. Generalized use of estimated GF through formulas provides the clinic with a simple method for identifying and stratifying CKD patients, and at the same time, deciding the most suitable prescription for treatment. This is especially important for the population over 65 years, which is also the most polymedicated. At this important stage in avoiding iatrogenia, we should consider the drugs which act on the renin-angiotensin system (ACEI, ARA II, aliskiren), NSAID, potassium sparing diuretics, some oral hypoglycemics and iodine contrast agents, among others.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">SIGNIFICANCE OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE IN THE ELDERLY POPULATION. LIMITATIONS OF THE ESTIMATION OF GLOMERULAR FILTRATION</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Epidemiological studies have shown a clear relationship between GF reduction and age. For all ages, there is increased mortality risk as GF decreases below 60ml/min, except for those over 75 years and for those for whom risk becomes significant only below 45ml/min (CKD stage 3b).<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">However, interpretation of estimation of GF through formulas derived from creatinine is not always simple in this population, especially in ranges close to normalcy limits. Interpreting low GF of an elder is a difficult dilemma. Autopsy studies have shown that kidney size and weight, and the number of nephrons decrease with age.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">There is a doubt whether the rate of renal deterioration corresponds with aging, in the absence of another marker such as albuminuria, and if it is a biological phenomenon associated with aging, for which no specific approach is needed to be taken, or if it should be taken into account because it could prevent greater deterioration through some approach or intervention. Some studies have questioned estimation of GF in elders, suggesting that it only contributes to an inadequate sending of elders to Nephrology consultation.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">One of the most important challenges in this respect is identifying those patients, including elders, with a reduced GF who may benefit from being sent to Nephrology. Probably, it is those patients who have significant albuminuria or progression of kidney failure. In the meantime, and although currently there is not enough evidence to establish that a person over 70-75 years, with a GF between 30 and 60ml/min, without albuminuria or persistent alterations in urine sediment, may have a kidney disease. This patient should at least be considered as having possible risk of iatrogenia due to inadequate drug dosing for kidney function or inadequate for patients with reduced GF. These patients should at least have monitoring of kidney function done by the Primary Care doctor.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With all of its limitations, the generalized use of estimated GF continues to be the main tool to monitor and make uniform the treatment of alterations in kidney function. It is hoped that shortly such limitations can be solved for optimal use of CKD diagnostic tests. This would lead to a strategy for optimal resources in treating CKD between Primary Care and Nephrology.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">RENAL HEALTH PROGRAMME</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The high prevalence of CKD coupled with its tendency to go undiagnosed during its early stages, and its progressive yet modifiable nature make it necessary to put together, at the national level, a programme to facilitate the diagnosis of kidney disease in its early stages, in the hope of avoiding the subsequent development of related cardiovascular complications, progression of kidney disease, the inappropriate prescribing of medications and, as a last resort, to provide Nephrology specialists with a late reference which allows them to properly control complications associated with advanced CKD, prepare the patient with enough time in advance for the replacement techniques of kidney function (haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis), to receive a kidney transplant prior to initiating dialysis treatments.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Existing programmes for renal health are similar and consist of determining control of arterial pressure in the at-risk population, a sample blood analysis (creatinine and estimation of GF) and an analysis of proteinuria in a simple sample of morning urine. Detection and confirmation of CKD presence requires a follow-up by the Primary Care doctor and by the specialist in Nephrology when necessary. This also involves the establishment of hygienic-dietary measures, advice on medications and pharmacological measures for preventing cardiovascular and kidney disease progression.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The programme for Renal Health should make all health professionals jointly responsible and especially doctors from Primary Care and Nephrology Departments from different Autonomous Communities (ACs). Indeed, to facilitate coordination among professionals, the Spanish Society of Nephrology and the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine have prepared a Consensus Document with recommendations for the detection, treatment and referral of patients with CKD.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">SCOPE OF STRATEGIES FOR RENAL HEALTH</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Aimed at the entire Spanish population, especially at persons at risk of CKD, but including informative activities for the entire population. Such strategies should be developed as a continued and ongoing activity, and should be subjected to an overall evaluation process based on quality standards and attainment objectives, which are established by such a given process.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">OBJECTIVES</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The final goal is to improve renal health of the Spanish population through the development of activities for promotion, health education, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, oriented toward particular individuals, specific groups and the general population.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">The specific objectives</span> are as follows: 1) increasing detection of CKD, as early as possible; 2) decreasing progression of CKD y associated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality; 3) decreasing iatrogeny due to contraindicated drugs or drugs used at an inappropriate dosage for the degree of kidney failure; and 4) reducing health care costs associated with the disease.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">TARGET POPULATION FOR THE RENAL HEALTH PLAN</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">- <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Individual:</span> directed towards particular individuals, normally through medical consultation.<br></br>- <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Group:</span> oriented towards groups at risk of developing CKD or to groups of patients in different stages.<br></br>- <span class="elsevierStyleBold">Population:</span> through preventative campaigns using media communications, with the objective of reaching the highest possible percentage of the population. The backers are Health Services and/or Scientific Societies and/or Associations of Patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">STANDARDIZATION OF RENAL CARE</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Implementation in all ACs of a standardized system for assessing estimated GF and albuminuria in the population atrisk of developing CKD is a key element for achieving the objectives of strategies for renal health. Therefore, introducing determinations of the presence of and degree of CKD in the Contract-Programme of Health Centres would allow professionals in charge of these patients’ follow-up to more easily make decisions.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In each health area, the definition of consensus criteria of actions and referrals is necessary. The SEN-SEMFYC Consensus Document is a tool incorporated into the renal health plan which will simplify standardization between the areas of Primary and Specialized care. In many areas, modifications may be made to the Consensus Document, but it will serve as a reference basis for the entire national territory.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">STRATEGIC AREAS</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Strategic area 1: primary care prevention for at-risk CKD patients</span>.
