		<description><![CDATA[As with other patients, the renally impaired should undergo preoperative cardiac assessment to assign risk level prior to surgery or any invasive procedure. In patients with advanced chronic renal failure (glomerular filtration rate &#60;20 ml/min), bleeding time determination should be performed before invasive surgery and if bleeding time is prolonged, desmopressin (l-desamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin) should be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cardiovascular Disease Cardiovascular disease accounts for about 50% of all deaths in ESRD. This mortality is attributed in part to risks during progressive renal insufficiency. Modifiable risk factors such as smoking, obesity, and insufficient physical inactivity should be addressed and corrected, if possible. Depression Depression, a common consequence of chronic illness, should be determined and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The paucity of specific symptoms and signs in early renal insufficiency necessitates vigilance to detect renal failure. Depending on muscle mass, the serum creatinine concentration becomes elevated only after 60 to 70% of glomerular filtration rate is lost. In actuality, therefore, what is generally described as &#8220;early&#8221; or &#8220;mild&#8221; chronic renal failure, usually referring to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Application of evidence-based management of progressive renal insufficiency prior to onset of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) affords a reasonable probability of decreasing mortality and morbidity while delaying ESRD. This review provides strategies that may prolong the interval between discovery of kidney disease and ESRD, and also may improve patient outcomes in chronic renal insufficiency.
