There is a long distance between the actual worldwide real-ity in advanced chronic kidney disease care and the desire of how these patients should be managed to decrease cardio-vascular and general morbidity and mortality. Implementa-tion of adequate infrastructures may improve clinical outcomes and increase the use of home renal replacement therapies (RRT). Current pitfalls should be addressed to op-timise care: inadequate medical training for nephrological referral and RRT selection, late referral to nephrologists, in-adequate patient education for choice of RRTmodality, lack of multidisciplinary advanced kidney disease clinics and lack of programmed RRT initiation. These deficiencies gen-erate unintended consequences, such as inequality ...
