GERNTHOLTZ, T; PAGET, G; HSU, P  y  MEYERS, A M. Management of patients with chronic kidney disease. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2015, vol.105, n.3, pp.237-237. ISSN 2078-5135.  http://dx.doi.org/10.7196/SAMJ.9417.

Co-operation between primary healthcare workers (clinic staff and general practitioners) and nephrologists is essential and the ability to refer patients timeously should be on a pre-negotiated and organised basis. This article deals with these aspects, including follow-up guidelines and management and treatment strategies, including lifestyle changes where indicated and referral for end-stage renal failure, i.e. for dialysis and transplantation.
