Incidence and predictors of vascular events following end‐stage kidney disease in childhood

Aim Cardiovascular death is a leading cause of mortality in paediatric end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). There is however little known about the clinically relevant vascular disease in this population. We aimed to describe the incidence of new onset vascular disease and vascular death in Australian children receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT). We also aimed to identify demographic or childhood risk factors for these endpoints, and whether vascular disease predicts mortality. Methods Data on Australian patients who commenced RRT at
