Aging Health, 10/07/09
Williams ME – Diabetic kidney guidelines do not adequately distinguish between age groups. Aggressive management must be measured against life expectancy in the elderly. The physician should be aware of these risks. Unfortunately, many elderly diabetic chronic kidney disease/end–stage renal disease patients are not prescribed the treatments that are available. Over a third of new end–stage renal disease cases among the elderly are due to diabetic kidney disease. Prognosis is poor, even for those who receive a kidney transplant.
