What Does CKD Stand for as a Disease Abbreviation?
CKD is the abbreviation for chronic kidney disease in medicine. Generally, after examination, it can be determined that the patient's kidney damage has lasted for more than 3 months or even longer, and may be accompanied by low glomerular filtration rate. Reasonable treatment should be given according to the patient's condition. Attention should also be paid to avoiding staying up late frequently and cooperating with the doctor's advice for treatment.
CKD refers to chronic kidney disease in English, which stands for "chronic kidney disease" in Chinese. The diagnosis of CKD needs to include the following contents: first, the diagnosis of kidney disease; second, the evaluation of renal function; third, the evaluation of complications and comorbidities related to renal insufficiency.
When the glomerular filtration rate is between 30-60ml/minute, it is called CKD stage III; when it is between 15-30ml/minute, it is called CKD stage IV.
