The International Society of Nephrology (ISN) The International Society of Nephrology is a global professional association dedicated to advancing worldwide kidney health. www.theisn.org

The International Society of Nephrology (ISN) is advancing kidney care worldwide. Through our scientific and capacity-building activities in advocacy, education and research, we bridge gaps in global kidney care, engaging in a collaborative effort to improve kidney disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment. With over 10,000 professional members from over 150 countries, the ISN represents a wide international network and an efficient platform for timely scientific exchange, debate and communication between healthcare professionals involved in preventing and treating kidney disease. By collaborating with more than 100 national and regional societies, we reach out to an additional 30,000 health professionals globally. Our overarching purpose is to tackle the global burden of acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), improving patient care through an interconnected advocacy, education and research strategy.

Dialysis or conservative kidney management: What matters most when making this decision?

For older people approaching kidney failure, choosing a treatment pathway is about more than survival. Quality of life, treatment burden, and personal priorities all play an important role.

But do we have the evidence needed to support these conversations?

🔬 For the first time, a randomized controlled trial provides evidence comparing preparation for dialysis with conservative kidney management in this population.

The landmark Prepare for Kidney Care trial followed 445 participants across 31 UK kidney units for an average of 4.5 years, examining both quality and length of life.

đź’¬ Could this evidence change how we approach shared decision-making?

Join the ISN-UKKA webinar on November 5 to explore the first results and hear how they could inform conversations between patients, families, and kidney care teams.

Because the best treatment decisions begin with understanding what matters most to each patient.
