[Investigations on the time of first hospital admission of children with chronic renal failure (CRF) (author's transl)].
In the Federal Republic of Germany between 1969-1978 only 63% of the children with CRF who were sent to hospital for the first time, had creatinine values less than 4 mg/100 ml hospitals whereas 37% had creatinine values greater than 4 mg/100 ml, too late for adequate preparation of dialysis and transplantation. This ratio did not change during the 9 years of observation. The stage of CRF at the time of the first hospital admission did not dependent on the type of the basic renal disease.
