Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) imposes a significant burden on healthcare systems worldwide, and diabetes is a major risk factor for CKD. There is currently no consensus in Hong Kong regarding the prioritisation of early identification and intervention for CKD. A comprehensive and Hong Kong-specific diabetes and CKD treatment guideline is also lacking. A multidisciplinary group of experts discussed issues surrounding the current management of CKD and reviewed evidence in the context of local experience to support recommendations. The experts used a modified Delphi approach to finalise recommendations. Consensus was regarded as ≥75% acceptability among all expert panel members. The panel members finalised 14 CKD-focused consensus statements addressing disease definition, screening, disease monitoring, lifestyle management, and treatment strategies. The recommendations provided are relevant to the Hong Kong healthcare setting and can be used as a guide by physicians across various specialties to facilitate the appropriate management of CKD.
