Kidney Int. 2020 Nov;98(5S):S117-S134. doi: 10.1016/j.kint.2020.07.023.

Abstract

There is a huge gap between the number of patients worldwide requiring versus those actually receiving safe, sustainable, and equitable care for kidney failure. To address this, the International Society of Nephrology coordinated the development of a Strategic Plan for Integrated Care of Patients with Kidney Failure. Implementation of the plan will require engagement of the whole kidney community over the next 5-10 years.

Keywords: UHC (universal health coverage); advocacy; conservative care; dialysis; funding; kidney failure; training; transplantation.
