That the Parliament recognises the importance of diagnosing chronic kidney disease at an early stage; understands that over 600,000 people in Scotland have chronic kidney disease (CKD), with around a third thought to be living with the condition undiagnosed; notes with concern the reported lack of public awareness of the signs of CKD, with one in four people being unable to identify any of the seven main signs of a loss of kidney function; further notes that people with diabetes and/or high blood pressure are at an increased risk of developing CKD, but understands that most do not currently receive the recommended annual testing; commends charities, including Kidney Care UK, for raising awareness of the signs and risks of CKD, including through the Bloody Amazing Kidneys campaign, with a reported over 130,000 people having completed their kidney health care checker, with 50% of those completing it found to be at higher risk of CKD, and notes the recommendations for action made by Kidney Care UK in its Let’s Talk Kidneys report, which include adopting targets for early detection of chronic kidney disease, ensuring that every NHS board develops a chronic kidney disease prevention and management strategy to better identify and reduce the risk among people, enhancing local primary care management of CKD and ensuring that healthcare professionals are supported to communicate the risks of CKD progression.
