Nephrologists Congress 2018 | July 23-24, 2018 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

High blood pressure and kidney disease should be thought of as an interlinked vicious cycle, which feed each other and make things mutually and progressively worse. All professionals in Nephrology and hypertension agree on the risk that high blood pressure poses to the kidneys, and the importance of blood pressure control for protecting the kidneys. Achieved blood pressure correlates with progression of renal failure. There is no guarantee that a person with hypertension will present any symptoms of the condition. About 33% of people actually do not know that they have high blood pressure, and this ignorance can last for years.

Even in studies that fail to show that lower blood pressures results in decreased progression of renal failure when we organize the results by achieved blood pressure rather than by intention to treat we see that lower blood pressures have slower progression of renal failure. 

Some 2.5 million Malaysians have some form of kidney disease – and it is no thanks to their unhealthy lifestyle and eating habits. At present, there are about 30,000 people on dialysis and the number is increasing by about 5,000 to 6,000 each year. Every year, about 10% of dialysis patients die due to lack of organ donors. National Kidney Foundation's (NKF) board of directors was now on a mission to educate people on the disease and also to get those in the high-risk group to go for health screening for early detection of the disease.
