PCP Management of Anemia in CKD: From Screening to Referral Implement Evidence-Based Care in Patients Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health issue in the United States as it affects approximately 15% of the adult population. Yet, the vast majority of patients are unaware of their disease. The collective toll taken by CKD and its most advanced stage, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), on patient health and the healthcare system is enormous in scope. CKD is associated with poor physical and mental health; decreased functional status, work productivity, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL); significant morbidity; and premature mortality. However, CKD is largely a silent disease. The vast majority of patients with CKD and nearly half with severe CKD are unaware of their disease and are undiagnosed. Anemia is a common complication of CKD, with estimates indicating that anemia is twice as prevalent in people with CKD compared with the general population. The prevalence and severity of anemia increase as CKD progresses, which means the majority of patients with CKD stage 5 develop anemia. Thus, the stage of CKD is the main risk factor for anemia. The pathophysiology of anemia in CKD is multifactorial and complex, but the dominant contributing factors are inadequate production of erythropoietin (EPO) and iron deficiency. This course will address diagnosis and treatment to optimize patient care.
