The Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP) screened high-risk individuals for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Community screenings identified a high prevalence of CKD, emphasizing the need for early detection and management.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant global health burden.
  • Early identification of individuals at risk for CKD is crucial for timely intervention.
  • Existing screening programs may not adequately reach high-risk populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of the Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP) in identifying individuals at risk for CKD.
  • To encourage high-risk individuals to seek medical evaluation and management for kidney disease.
  • To establish a de-identified database for analyzing demographic and clinical data of screened participants.

Main Methods:

  • Community-based screening utilizing a standardized questionnaire and test panel.

  • Targeting individuals with a personal history of diabetes, hypertension, or a family history of kidney disease.
  • Data collection and management by the KEEP Data Coordinating Center.
  • Main Results:

    • Analysis of data from 11,246 participants revealed a population enriched with African Americans and older individuals.
    • Diabetes was present in 2690 participants (self-report or abnormal blood glucose).
    • CKD was identified in 47.4% of the screened high-risk population.

    Conclusions:

    • Targeted community screening effectively identifies a substantial number of individuals with CKD.
    • Such programs can raise awareness about kidney disease.
    • Screening may promote improved health-seeking behaviors among at-risk individuals.
