摘要

本篇重點討論了慢性腎臟病的流行病學概況。在2002年出版的National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative（KDOQI）的定義和分類，提升了疾病嚴重度之標準化。在美國，慢性腎臟病的盛行率隨著時間而有所增加。總體而言，慢性腎臟病患死亡的風險遠高於進展至末期腎臟病的風險。台灣第1期至第5期腎臟病的盛行率約10%左右。慢性腎臟病是一個世界性的公共衛生問題。到2015年，有大約70萬名末期腎臟病患者。

This article focuses on the epidemiological profile of chronic kidney disease. The definition and classification of the National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI), published in 2002, has increased the standardization of disease severity. Prevalence of chronic kidney disease in the United States shows an increase in prevalence over time. Overall, the risk of death from chronic kidney disease is much higher than the risk of progression to end-stage kidney disease. The prevalence of kidney disease in the 3rd to 5th stage of Taiwan is about 10%. Chronic kidney disease is also a worldwide public health problem. By 2015, there were about 700,000 patients with end-stage renal disease. Chronic kidney disease relies heavily on laboratory data in clinical diagnosis, and is a major problem in low-and middle-income countries.
