BOSTON — In a review of the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes recommendations, a speaker discussed the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative commentary on the updated guidelines here.
Specifically, the speaker said the updates focused on blood pressure measurement techniques and blood pressure targets.
“An important feature of these guidelines was a glossary of terms for blood pressure measurement,” Paul E. Drawz, MD, MHS, MS, associate professor at the University of Minnesota, said during a presentation at the National Kidney Foundation Spring Clinical Meetings.
