[Chronic kidney disease in community: Current state for screening and management].

OBJECTIVE: To understand the current state and problem of screening and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the community, and to explore the improving strategies. METHODS: We established a community-CKD integrated data science platform based on medical information from 79 community health centers, in Xicheng District, Beijing. Patients who referred to 79 community health centers from 21 June 2015 to 20 November 2021 were retrospectively included in this study using the CKD data platform. The monitoring of the indicator of kidney injury, risk factor control, medicine use and device configuration in community were assessed in the study. RESULTS: In the study, 70.6% of the population were identified with high risk of CKD in the total 374 498 individuals who referred to the community health centers. Hypertension (62.3%), coronary heart disease (43.3%) and diabetes (30.4%) were the most common risk factors in high-risk CKD population. Only 17.2% of the patients with high risk of CKD were screened for kidney injury including at least one serum creatine (Scr) or albuminuria test, among which 10 992 (24.2%) individuals were defined as CKD. 22.7% (11 338/49 908) of the total patients with kidney screening in community were defined as CKD, of whom, 42.6% and 46.1% were identified by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/(min·1.73 m2) and abnormalities of urinary proteins, respectively. The overall CKD detection rate in the community was 5.2% (19 299/374 498), and the miss-diagnosis rate of CKD was 38.1%. Of the 79 community health centers, 13 (16.5%) were equipped with ACR testing device, and eGFR was reported directly in 66 (83.5%) centers. Altogether 60.3% and 99.7% of the community CKD patients achieved glucose control and blood pressure control, respectively, and 59.3% of the CKD patients who had proteinuria was treated with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors. CONCLUSION: High-risk CKD population account for a substantial proportion of patients who refer to the community. Early screening, prevention and management of CKD in the community are of great importance to improve the prognosis and decrease the burden of CKD. It's essential to establish a screening and monitoring system, strengthen standardized management and clinician training for improving the ability of CKD management in the community.
