Summary
The European Renal Association Registry
Area of Science:
- Nephrology
- Public Health
- Epidemiology
Background:
- The European Renal Association (ERA) Registry monitors kidney replacement therapy (KRT) for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).
- This report summarizes the 2021 ERA Registry Annual Report, analyzing KRT treatment modalities.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present key findings from the 2021 ERA Registry Annual Report.
- To compare kidney replacement therapy (KRT) modalities in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).
Main Methods:
- Data aggregated from 54 national/regional registries across 36 countries.
- Calculated incidence, prevalence, transplantation rates, survival probabilities, and life expectancy for KRT patients.
Main Results:
- In 2021, KRT incidence was 145 pmp, prevalence was 1040 pmp.
- 56% received hemodialysis, 5% peritoneal dialysis, 39% had a functioning graft. Kidney transplantation rate was 37 pmp.
- 5-year survival for KRT initiation (2012-2016) was 52%. Dialysis patients had significantly shorter life expectancy.
Conclusions:
- The ERA Registry provides crucial data on ESKD treatment across Europe.
- Significant disparities in life expectancy exist between KRT modalities and the general population.

Data Reporting and Recording
4.7K
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Prevalence and Incidence
478
In statistical epidemiology and health sciences, two essential metrics—prevalence and incidence—are fundamental for understanding disease dynamics within a population. These measures enable public health officials, epidemiologists, and researchers to assess the burden of diseases, allocate resources effectively, and design impactful public health policies and interventions.
Prevalence indicates the proportion of individuals in a population who have a specific disease or health...
