Facts about Kidney Disease

More than ten million Americans have kidney problems. Some of these problems include: infections, kidney stones, kidney cancer and Polycystic Kidney Disease. Many people also have chronic kidney disease (CKD). When you have CKD, your kidneys do not work as well as they should. CKD can lead to kidney failure. Kidney failure can only be treated with dialysis or a kidney transplant. Here are some facts about kidney disease:

1. About 1 in 12 people in America has a kidney or urinary tract disease.
2. Over 7.4 million adults over age 20 have chronic kidney disease. That’s 4.5%!
3. Diabetes is the number one cause of kidney failure. High blood pressure is number two.
4. Over 75,000 people die from kidney failure each year. Kidney disease is America’s ninth leading cause of death.
5. There are 400,000 people being kept alive through dialysis or kidney transplants.
6. Over 61,000 patients are on the waiting list for a kidney transplant. Sadly, only 16,000 will get a new kidney this year.

Facts about KidneyScreen

KidneyScreen At Home is a new convenient mail-in laboratory test for measuring microalbumin levels in the urine, which is the proven way to detect kidney dysfunction early enough to avoid developing kidney disease

According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), 20%-30% of individuals with diabetes develop kidney disease. This is in spite of the fact that it's one of the most preventable of all the devastating complications of diabetes. The key is early detection. If it's detected in the earliest stages, kidney dysfunction can be stopped or reversed with treatment. The best way to assure early detection of kidney dysfunction is by doing a urine test that measures the levels of a protein call microalbumin.

The ADA and the American Kidney Foundation (AKF) recommend that every individual with diabetes have a microalbumin test done every year. However studies have shown that only one out of every 10 patients with diabetes has a microalbumin test done annually.
