Chronic Kidney Disease: 7 Questions for Primary Care

The primary care role in detection, management, and reducing the risk of progression of CKD continues to expand. Test yourself here on basics in each category.

Detecting and managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be challenging for the primary care clinician but with fewer nephrologists to handle this population, you'll likely be seeing these patients more often, for longer. How much do you know about CKD? To find out, take this quiz, which is based on recent recommendations from an expert panel of internists and nephrologists. To get started, advance the first slide below to Question 1.

Enhance your clinical practice with the Patient Care newsletter, offering the latest evidence-based guidelines, diagnostic insights, and treatment strategies for primary care physicians.
