WHY
WORLD
KIDNEY
DAY?
WORLD KIDNEY DAY (1)
PURPOSE:
1.World Kidney Day was established to
increase awareness of the need for detection
programs for CKD & to improve
prevention & treatment of CKD.
2.The motto of World Kidney Day:
Kidney Disease is Common,
Harmful and Treatable.
About 20 Million People With
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in
the United States and
~20 Million More at Risk
Estimates Suggest That About 10
Percent of Adult Patients Worldwide
May Have CKD
Most People with CKD will Die
Prematurely from their Increased
Risk of Cardiovascular and
Cerebrovascular Disease Before
they Develop End-Stage Kidney
Failure

WHY WORLD KIDNEY
DAY?
• Chronic, non-communicable diseases (i.e. CVD,
HTN, DM and CKD) have now replaced
communicable diseases as the LEADING
THREAT to public health & health budgets
worldwide
• Deaths…
– Attributed to infectious diseases will decline
by 3% over the next decade
– Attributed to chronic diseases will increase by
17% over the same time frame
Interconnections
Between Obesity, Diabetes
Mellitus, High Blood
Pressure, and Chronic
Kidney Disease (CKD)
Interconnections Between Obesity,
Diabetes Mellitus (DM), High Blood
Pressure, and Chronic Kidney Disease
(CKD)
Relationships between Obesity, Diabetes & CKD:
i. Obesity predisposes to both Diabetes & CKD
ii. Diabetes is the most common cause of endstage CKD that requires chronic dialysis
treatments or renal transplantation
iii. Roughly one-third of people with Diabetes
will develop CKD
Interconnections Between Obesity,
Diabetes Mellitus, High Blood Pressure,
and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Relationships between Obesity, Diabetes & CKD:
(continued)
iv. Diabetes is easy to detect, can be prevented in
most cases, and can usually be treated
effectively in most cases.
Interconnections Between Obesity, Diabetes
Mellitus, High Blood Pressure, and Chronic
Kidney Disease (CKD)
Relationships between CKD & high blood pressure:
i. High blood pressure, like chronic kidney disease
(CKD), is often silent and dangerous.
ii. High blood pressure causes CKD.
iii. CKD causes High blood pressure.
iv. Both CKD and Hogh blood pressure are
common and treatable.
Interconnections Between Obesity,
Diabetes Mellitus, High Blood Pressure,
and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Relationships between Obesity, Diabetes, CKD,
High blood pressure versus Vascular Disease:
1. Each of the above four conditions increase
the risk for Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular
Disease.
2. This risk is often markedly increased.
3. Together these 4 diseases (Obesity,
Diabetes, CKD and high blood pressure) cause a
large percentage of the illnesses and deaths in
the Developed and the Developing World.
Interconnections Between Obesity,
Diabetes Mellitus, High Blood Pressure,
and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
What can We do to Prevent and Treat
these Related Diseases and Their
Harmful Effects?
Challenges of CKD
Management problems, enormous
everywhere, are particularly great, even
overwhelming, in developing countries:
1. Little awareness of CKD or its
consequences
2. Few financial resources for
prevention, detection or treatment
3. Little expertise
4. High prevalence of CKD
What Can Be Done (1)?
1.Advertise/Educate
i. The public-at –large
ii. National, regional and local
governments, insurers and other health
related organizations (eg, the
pharmaceutical industry)
iii. Health care professionals (There is
abundant evidence that medical care is
suboptimal nationally, even when financial
resources are not a limiting factor).
WORLD KIDNEY DAY (2)
A SUCCESS STORY:
There has been an overwhelming
response around the world to
World Kidney Day.
WKD Successes (1)
• Outstanding response from around the
world:
– 45 participating countries - 2006
– 63 participating countries - 2007
– 90 participating countries & territories –
2008
– Over 100 participating countries &
territories -2009 (estimated)
WKD Successes (2)
Participating Countries
– from Albania to Zimbabwe
– In many countries, activities in many different
places
– Participating organizations included:
societies, foundations, universities, colleges,
hospitals associations, trusts and individuals
– Local activities focused on raising awareness
across all key audiences:
– Public-at -large, Government ministers and
Health Officials, Physicians and Allied Health
Professionals
What Can Be Done (2)?
2. Conduct Detection and Treatment Programs
i. Particularly for high risk groups.
ii. Employ inexpensive methods of detection and
treatment (Experience of Dr. Manis from
Chennai, consider using non-physicians where
possible).
iii. Collaboration with other like-minded
organizations will increase efficiency and
effectiveness – especially for a nation as
populous and with as many volunteer health
organizations as India.
Today There are Many
Safe and Effective
Treatments That Prevent
or Slow the Progression
of Chronic Kidney
Disease
Simple Methods for
Detection of CKD
1. Urine Albumin, including
Microalbumin (indicator of
kidney disease especially of
small blood vessels in kidney)
2. Serum Creatinine (indicator of
kidney function)
3. Blood Pressure
What Can Be Done (3)?
3. New Direction:
We are beginning to join with other
disease focused groups and world health
days that relate to kidney disease (for
example, World Hypertension Day,
possibly in the future, World Diabetes
Day).
What Can Be Done (4)?
4. Ultimately, the costs of prevention,
detection and treatment programs
nationally will require resources that can
only be provided by such national or
regional organizations as governments or
other third party insurers – But this is for
the future.
Potential Evolution in Goals for World
Kidney Day
The goal is to use World Kidney Day as a
mechanism to stimulate people to work together
to improve the health care system as it affects
public health, preventative medicine and acute
and chronic medical care in their locality with
regard to acute and chronic kidney disease .
We want to have volunteers from kidney
foundations, kidney patient organizations,
societies of nephrology, other interested
organizations and the public-at-large join
together to attain these goals in their locality.
