Our CKD Reports
The chronic kidney disease (CKD) Patient Results Reports offers expert clinical guidance specific to your patient at the point of care
Clinical Guidance
Our computer-generated physician guidance is based on the National Kidney Foundation’s Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI™) guidelines as interpreted by a panel of recognized authorities, many of whom chaired or were members of the KDOQI™ panels.
