Timing Of Nephrology Referral
Patients with chronic kidney disease should be referred to a specialist for consultation and co-management if:
the clinical action plan cannot be preparedthe prescribed evaluation of the patient cannot be carried outthe recommended treatment cannot be carried out. In general, patients with GFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2
should be referred to a nephrologist.
71
The timing of specialist evaluation in chronic kidney disease and mortality:Cumulative Mortality
Early: > 12 monthsIntermediate: 4-12 monthsLate: <4 months
Kinchen KS….Ann Intern Med 2002 Sep 17;137(6):479-86
72
Early Treatment Should Make a Difference
Brenner, et al., 2001
73
PCP Must be Engaged
1) 7.6 million people with GFR 30-60 mL/min/1.73 m2
2) About 5,000 full-time nephrologists
3) Nearly 1,500 new patients per nephrologist
Therefore, 7 new patients per day per nephrologist.
Obviously not possible.

Summary: Definition of CKD
•• ““SpotSpot”” urine albumin/microalbumin to creatinine ratio
• Estimate GFR from serum creatinine using the MDRD prediction equation
Note: 24 hour urine collections are NOT neededDiabetics, HTN: should be tested once a yearOthers at risk: less frequently as long as normal
