About this study

COVID-19 pandemic affected the admission of patients to the hospital especially the older patients (> 65 years old) because of curfews and the reluctance of patients to apply to the hospitals. Chronic kidney disease is characterized with the progressive loss of kidney function over the time and regular follow-up of patients for their kidney function and treatment of complications is recommended in these patients.

Read the detailed description

The chronis kidney disease patients followed in Nephrology outpatient unit are going to be enrolled in the study and their kidney functions (calculated with the mdrd formula to asses the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)) will be evaluated 6 months before and after the COVID-19 pandemia. And the rate of initiation of renal replacement therapies and the change in proteinuria will be evaluated 6 months before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Being tested
change in kidney function and proteinuria

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

eGFR change (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
