KidneyIntelX
For Patients
Diabetes and Your Kidney Health
Diabetes affects how well your kidneys filter waste from your body and can result in chronic kidney disease, a condition characterized by loss of kidney function. Most people don’t realize their kidneys are failing until it’s too late. Kidney failure requires regular dialysis treatments or a transplant.
There are steps you and your doctor can take to slow or prevent the progression of chronic kidney disease, starting with understanding your risk. If you have diabetes, talk to your doctor about the KidneyIntelX test and how it can improve your care.
How KidneyIntelX Works
A standard blood draw
KidneyIntelX is a simple blood test that can be run on its own, or alongside any other familiar blood tests
Easy to understand risk score
Your KidneyIntelX results will tell if you are at low, intermediate, or high risk of kidney failure. Your doctor will work with you to determine the right next steps
Maintain
Low
If your risk score is Low, you are not likely to progress to end stage kidney disease and should continue to be monitored by your primary care physician every year
Monitor
Intermediate
If your risk score is Intermediate, you should follow up with your primary care more often – about 2 to 3 times a year – and you may need a referral to a nephrologist
Act
High
If your risk score is High, you are significantly more likely to progress to end stage kidney disease and require more aggressive management, potentially including a referral to a nephrologist
