Global availability of medications and health technologies for kidney care
A core feature of universal health coverage is equitable access to affordable care not exposing people to financial hardship. This study aims to provide a global overview on availability and access to medications and health technologies for delivery of optimal kidney care. An international survey of stakeholders (clinicians, policymakers, and patient advocates) from countries affiliated to the International Society of Nephrology was conducted fro…
Disparities in kidney care in vulnerable populations
Vulnerable populations, such as the elderly, children, displaced people, and refugees, often encounter challenges in accessing healthcare. In this study, we used data from the third iteration of the International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA) to describe kidney care access and delivery to vulnerable populations across countries and regions. Using data from an international survey of clinicians, policymakers, and pati…
A global snapshot on health systems capacity for detection, monitoring, and management of acute kidney injury
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in low and lower-middle income countries. Data from the third iteration of the International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA) were used to evaluate the organization of structures and services for the provision of AKI care in world countries and ISN regions. An international survey of key stakeholders (clinicians, policymakers, and pa…
Landscape of kidney replacement therapy provision in low- and lower-middle income countries
In low- and lower-middle-income countries (LLMICs), delivering equitable kidney care presents substantial challenges, resulting in significant disparities in disease management and treatment outcomes for people with kidney failure. This comprehensive report leveraged data from the International Society of Nephrology-Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA), to provide a detailed update on the landscape of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in LLMICs. …
Regional hotspots for chronic kidney disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) disproportionately affects certain populations as demonstrated by well-established subnational geographic hotspots of CKD in Central America and South Asia. Using data from the third iteration of the International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA), we aimed to systematically identify sub-national geographic or population clusters with high prevalence of CKD. The ISN-GKHA survey was conducted …
National health policies and strategies for addressing chronic kidney disease
National strategies for addressing chronic kidney disease (CKD) are crucial to improving kidney health. We sought to describe country-level variations in non-communicable disease (NCD) strategies and CKD-specific policies across different regions and income levels worldwide. The International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (GKHA) was a multinational cross-sectional survey conducted between July and October 2018. Responses from k…
Treatment Decision-Making in Myocardial Infarction for People With Advanced Kidney Disease
Background: People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have significantly higher morbidity and mortality following myocardial infarction (MI) than the general population. Despite this, they are less likely to receive invasive management and guideline-directed medications than those without kidney disease. It is unclear why this treatment variation exists and whether or not it reflects equal and appropriate access to care for the high-risk CKD popul…
Expectations of a new opt‐out system of consent for deceased organ donation in England
INTRODUCTION: In 2020 England moved to an opt-out deceased donation law. We aimed to investigate the views of a mixed stakeholder group comprising people with kidney disease, family members and healthcare practitioners towards the change in legislation. We investigated the expected impacts of the new legislation on deceased-donor and living-donor transplantation, and views on media campaigns regarding the law change. METHODS: We undertook in-dept…
Workforce capacity for the care of patients with kidney failure across world countries and regions
INTRODUCTION: An effective workforce is essential for optimal care of all forms of chronic diseases. The objective of this study was to assess workforce capacity for kidney failure (KF) care across world countries and regions. METHODS: Data were collected from published online sources and a survey was administered online to key stakeholders. All country-level data were analysed by International Society of Nephrology region and World Bank income c…
Measuring capability wellbeing in adults at different stages of life for use in economic evaluation of health and care interventions
This study suggests use of ICECAP-A in patients with certain chronic health conditions that include a mix of adults across the life course. This study highlights the importance of considering the stage of life when using capability measures and in economic evaluations of health and care interventions more generally
Socio-economic status, ethnicity and geographical variations in acceptance rates for renal replacement therapy in England and Wales
BACKGROUND: It is not known to what extent the reported regional variations in renal replacement therapy (RRT) acceptance rates in England and Wales are due to differences in the socio-demographic characteristics of the population. METHODS: The authors calculated age-gender indirectly standardised RRT rates in 2007 for Primary Care Trusts (PCT)/Local Health Boards (LHB) in England and Wales and Government Office Regions (GOR) in England. Multivar…
