[Management of chronic kidney disease. World Kidney Day, March 13, 2008].
Chronic kidney disease is a worldwide growing problem, especially due to three factors very often encountered together (old age, diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension). A multidisciplinary approach is needed to reduce this epidemic that has important health implications.This needs of course well trained health partners. On the occasion of the World Kidney Day on March 2008, four lectures were given, which gave an updated overview of the management of chronic kidney insufficiency, a serious problem of public health.
