The National Kidney Disease Education Program (NKDEP) aims to raise awareness of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among high-risk individuals and healthcare providers. Increased awareness is intended to promote early detection and intervention for kidney disease.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Nephrology
  • Health Education

Background:

  • The incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is rapidly increasing in the United States.
  • New treatments are available to prevent and mitigate chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To increase awareness of CKD among high-risk populations.
  • To improve CKD recognition and management by primary care providers.

Main Methods:

  • The National Kidney Disease Education Program (NKDEP) was established by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK).
  • Program initiatives focus on education and outreach to target audiences.

Main Results:

  • The program aims to translate increased awareness into proactive patient engagement.

  • Anticipated outcomes include increased rates of CKD testing and timely treatment initiation.

    • Conclusions:

    • Raising awareness is a critical first step in addressing the growing burden of CKD.
    • Early detection and intervention through public health programs can mitigate the progression to ESRD.
