Abstract

Today in France, more than 5% of the population suffers from chronic kidney disease and its prevalence is increasing. It is important to detect these pathologies early and to provide patients with a multidisciplinary care programme in which nephrologists, endocrinologists and cardiologists coordinate their approach.

Keywords: chronic kidney failure; complication; epidemiology; insuffisance rénale chronique; prevalence; prévalence; épidémiologie.
