| Core Tip |
Older people often battle with multiple health issues, such as diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease, making treatment considerably more challenging, particularly if they have kidney problems. This specific cohort presents a meaningful diagnostic challenge in identifying kidney problems because of the large difficulty in differentiating normal aging from early chronic kidney disease. Accurate glomerular filtration rate estimation is important to prevent misdiagnosis, improper treatment and medication errors resulting from inaccurate calculations. |
