Assessing the quality of CKD care using process quality indicators: A scoping review. by Na Zhou, Chengchuan Chen, Yubei Liu, Zhaolan Yu, Aminu K Bello, Yanhua Chen, Ping Liu

“…The three categories included laboratory measures and monitoring of CKD progression and/or complications (monitoring of kidney markers, CKD mineral and bone disorder, anemia and malnutrition, electrolytes, and volume), use of guideline-recommended therapeutic agents (use of medications), and attainment of therapeutic targets (blood pressure, glycemia, and lipids). Among the frequently reported quality indicators (in five or more studies), the following have a median proportion of study participants achieving that quality indicator exceeding 50%: monitoring of kidney markers (Scr/eGFR), use of medications (ACEIs/ARBs, avoiding non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)), management of blood pressure (with a target of ≤140/90, or without specific targets), and monitoring for glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)). …”
