Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health problem, frequently associated with hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Internal medicine specialists are key to the early diagnosis of CKD through periodic screenings and laboratory tests. It is possible to slow disease progression and minimize the risk of complications by diagnosing CKD early.

Treatment strategies involve blood pressure management, control of glycemia, dietary changes, and medical therapy. Nephrologists and internal medicine providers work closely together to optimize care and delay the onset of dialysis or transplant. Through prevention and patient education, internal medicine is enhancing long-term outcomes for kidney health.
