Abstract :
[en] Abstract: In January 2013, the international recommendations
of the KDIGO (for “ Kidney Disease: Improving
Global Outcomes ” ) to define chronic kidney disease
(CKD) and classify patients in CKD stages have been published.
In this opinion article, we will review and discuss
the most important guidelines proposed about CKD staging
and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating. In
particular, we question the choice of fixed knot values
at 60 mL/min/1.73 m ² to define CKD. We also question
the strategies proposed to measure and use cystatin C
results.
