Use of Renin-Angiotensin System Blockade in Advanced CKD: An NKF-KDOQI Controversies Report

Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated that renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade with either angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers effectively reduces chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, most clinical trials excluded participants with advance...

Zusammenfassung:Multiple clinical trials have demonstrated that renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade with either angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers effectively reduces chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, most clinical trials excluded participants with advanced CKD (ie, estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]
