Abstract		The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is high and still increasing. The definition and staging of CKD have provide a unifying approach to CKD that has generated considerable new information on the epidemiology, course, outcomes, and burden of CKD. Patients with CKD have high risk for cardiovascular events and death, these complications are related to CKD staging.
Summary		Prevalenca kronične ledvične bolezni (KLB) je visoka in še narašča. Definicija in klasifikacija KLB po stopnjah omogoča poenoten pristop in številne nove podatke o epidemiologiji, poteku, izhodu in bremenu KLB. Bolniki s KLB imajo veliko tveganje za srčnožilne dogodke in smrt, ti zapleti pa so povezani s stopnjami KLB.
