hi adeera here. no conflicts other than part of the original and the updated system #askasn
need to clarify classification system as a framework for further study and discovery vs the 'end game' ; #askasn
we got ckd into regular working language and helped to demystify #askasn
we got CKD into common language and had a way to talk to other specialists, patients and policy makers better #askasn
CRI is not a patient centred term and while disease may overstate in some cases, no one apologies for 'heart disease' #askasn
ckd staging was first: based on a lot of data; ARF to AKI attmpted to help with understanding continuum, not as much data #askasn
framework to add granularity, will ideally be like the TMN Oncology classification, and then add better dx tools #askasn
about the overdx thing...not everyone with Diabetes or HTN has complications but we still say they have the condition! #askasn
to be controversial: don't think we need better equations, just better additional discriminators of other functions #askasn
Thought: did the cardiologists spend this much time debating LVH equations? Precision may be the enemy of good here #askasn
CKD staging important framework on which to build: nothing to throw out, something to enrich and expand #askasn
