Clinical practice guidelines in nephrology: evaluation, classification, and stratification of chronic kidney disease.

Pharmacotherapy 2005 April
The National Kidney Foundation developed and oversees the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative, a process that develops clinical practice guidelines in nephrology. Recent guidelines address the evaluation, classification, and stratification of chronic kidney disease (CKD). These guidelines provide, for the first time, a standard definition of CKD, classification of its stages, and suggestions for appropriate laboratory measurements for the assessment of kidney function.
