This indicator shows the percent of adults who have ever been told by a doctor, nurse or other health professional that they have kidney disease.
Why is this important?
Kidney disease is one of the top ten leading causes of death in the United States. It is most often caused by diabetes or high blood pressure, which slowly damage the blood vessels in the kidneys and decrease their ability to remove waste from the blood. According to the American Kidney Fund, it is estimated that 40% of people with diabetes will develop chronic kidney disease (CKD). The risk for kidney failure is also higher for some race/ethnic groups, especially African Americans and Native Americans.
