Urgent-start PD is defined as initiation of PD in patients w/ newly diagnosed ESKD who are not yet on dialysis and who require dialysis initiation < 2 weeks (as little as 24-48 hours) after PD catheter placement but do not require emergent dialysis #Nephpearls Image

Tweetorial: @goKDIGO Level 2B Recommendation - We suggest that adults w/ high BP & CKD be treated with a target SBP <120, when tolerated, using standardized office BP measurement (1/9) #Nephpearls
👉 kdigo.org/guidelines/blo…
There is evidence that targeting SBP <120 when measured under standardized conditions, reduces CV events & all-cause mortality in CKD

📌 In most people w/ high BP (incl. frail & elderly), these benefits appear to outweigh the risks of harm (hypotension & AKI) (2/9) #Nephpearls
There is however, some uncertainty that the benefits outweigh the harms in certain scenarios (3/9) #Nephpearls
