The incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) continues to vary substantially
between the countries in Europe that contribute data to the ERA-EDTA Registry.
Differences can be attributed to socioeconomic factors and prophylaxis programs
for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may also express real
differences in CKD incidence. Recently, age-adjusted ESRD incidence has begun to
fall in many countries, probably related to improved prophylaxis. However,
absolute rates may increase, partly due to socioeconomic advances in countries
with a low gross domestic product and partly due to continuing increases in the
proportion of elderly patients. Prevalence rates are expected to continue to
increase, mainly due to increases in relative transplant prevalence, improved
graft survival times and continuing improvements in both dialysis and transplant
patient survival. Overall treatment results continue to improve.
