We are happy to thank the participants of the "ISN Research Collaborative Meeting and 1st International Consensus Meeting on Defining Kidney Failure in Clinical Trials" for their key contributions to establish a universal and robust definition for use in clinical trials.

Bringing in valuable patient expertise and experience in developing a universal & robust defn. for kidney failure @ISNkidneycare #isnkidneyhealth @itsglendar @queenofdialysis @adeeralevin @vjha126 @VladoPerkovic @Thomas_Hiemstra @ChristophWanne4 @IgAN_JBarratt @fjcaskey

.@kidneygirl303 draws our attention to the First Nations Principles of OCAP: ownership, control, access, possession @ISNkidneycare #isnkidneyhealth @cansolveckd @fnigc @DavidCWheeler2 @itsglendar @queenofdialysis @adeeralevin @vjha126 @rhysdrevans @cellotonelli @IgAN_JBarratt

Trial papers are also read by patients. Researchers need to make findings accessible and usable. @ISNkidneycare #isnkidneyhealth @queenofdialysis @kidneygirl303 @itsglendar @scholes_nicki @Elektra @fjcaskey @adeeralevin @vjha126 @rhysdrevans @JoeCoresh @cansolveckd @cellotonelli

@drjamesburton Congratulations Jim. Well deserved.

It’s been a great 2019 so far. @CYCLEHD15 results reported at #UKKW2019, some exciting progress with #dialysis research with the NIHR HTA and now to be appointed Professor of Renal Medicine @UOLtweets @UoLCVS where I trained as a doctor and grew as an academic #oncallthisweekend

Lovely to have the renal community together for a celebration with @wilkiemart @allisontong1 #ukkw2018 @goKDIGO @kidneycareuk

Allison Tong draws on her SONG experience to present the patient perspective on dialysis initiation. #KDIGODialysisInitiation

Using an simple equation to predict risk of reaching « end stage » aids triage of CKD referrals. @NavTangri #kdigodialysisinitiation @goKDIGO

What impacts dialysis initiation? A summary from @vjha126 @georgeinstitute #kdigodialysisinitiation @goKDIGO

PD first maybe a successful model for universal dialysis coverage - data from Thailand; other countries in Asia should consider @goKDIGO @vjha126 #KDIGODialysisInitiation

~ 50% who need RRT are not on RRT (Europe/Oceania) @vjha126 @TheLancet #kdigodialysisinitiation @goKDIGO

94% of patients on dialysis are in high-income/upper middle income countries #kdigodialysisinitiation @vjha126 @goKDIGO @TheLancet

Availability of resources cannot be a reason for denying patients access to #dialysis @vjha126 @goKDIGO #kdigodialysisinitiation @KHACARI

And so it begins! The first KDIGO Controversies Conference of 2018. #KDIGODialysisInitiation #Madrid

John Davis opens the #kdigodialysisinitiation mtg @madrid

So that's two details wrong. Memory's a lying jade, isn't she?@ twitter.com/keirshiels/sta…

Is it RIP for RIPC? Disappointing results suggest high quality, well powered trials required before this can be used twitter.com/hswapnil/statu…

Great start to the @goKDIGO Clinical Trials Conference. #kdigotrials

@FionaCLoud @colinbaigent // meaningful patient engagement in trials requires education and feedback #kdigotrials @goKDIGO

#kdigotrials Great meeting, Excellent speakers @jonathanccraig @martinlandray @allisontong1
