Abstract
Chronic kidney disease patients often present late for dialysis due to minimal clinical symptoms, which are frequently undiscovered by both general practitioners and specialists. They have no information about renal replacement therapy, including preemptive kidney transplantation and do not have a permanent dialysis access. This fact increases the morbidity and mortality of those patients. Common preventive examinations such as blood pressure measurement, serum biochemistry, urinalysis, and glomerular filtration tests, might help with earlier diagnosis of these patients by others specialities and timely referral to nephrologist.
