PY - 2018 T2 - Rudolph's Pediatrics, 23e AB - End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is characterized by kidney failure that requires either chronic dialysis or kidney transplant. According to the US Renal Data System (USRDS) 2016 Annual Report, at the end of December 2014, 9721 children were receiving care for management of ESRD; of these, 1398 children represented incident cases of ESRD. Etiologies of pediatric ESRD can be divided into 4 main categories: congenital abnormalities of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT), primary glomerular diseases, secondary glomerular diseases, and hereditary/cystic kidney disease (Table 474-1). The degree of renal failure is characterized along a continuum and defined by chronic kidney disease (CKD) staging. The Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) provides recommendations for follow-up and management based on CKD staging.
