The end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) Data Standards Project was launched by the Kidney Health Initiative (KHI) with the goal of standardizing dialysis-related measurements for research use. KHI is a public-private partnership between the American Society of Nephrology, US Food and Drug Administration, and organizations with an interest in kidney disease. KHI promotes safe and effective patient-centered therapies for people with kidney disease. In 2018, KHI established a workgroup with expertise in nephrology, nursing, quality management, ESKD data, organizational management, and clinical research. The workgroup identified 5 topic areas and 8 specific measures for the development of standards on the basis of the existing ESKD Measurement Specification Manual published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The topic areas were ultrafiltration rate, vascular access, dialysis small solute clearance (3 data standards), hospitalization (2 data standards), and mortality. The research standards were approved by the workgroup, reviewed by external reviewers, and opened to public comment. The data standards attempt to achieve balance between brevity and completeness in the face of knowledge gaps. The ESKD Data Standards are publicly available on the KHI website (https://khi.asn-online.org/projects/project.aspx?ID=78). |
