Chronic kidney disease
The overall prevalence of CKD in cats is about 2% to 4%, which increases to 30% to 40% in cats over the age of 10. CKD affects about 0.5% to 1.5% of dogs, which increases with age as well. Simple calculation shows that more than 6.6 million owned cats and 4.7 million owned dogs would have CKD.
CKD is a progressive and irreversible disease, as in humans, so early diagnosis and proper treatment initiation is crucial to help them receive the full advantages of treatment and live a better quality of life.
As disease progresses, the kidney function and life expectancy decreases
The International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) has classified CKD in cats and dogs into four major stages based on blood creatinine concentration. Furthermore, they can be substaged based on proteinuria and blood pressure.
