AbstractPatients with advanced chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease live with a serious condition that often necessitates visits to an emergency department and subsequent hospitalization.

Emergency department physicians and other nonnephrologists who regularly manage advanced chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease need to follow several basic principles to provide excellent care to patients with these conditions.
