Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) display an increased cardiovascular comorbidity, which is often underdiagnosed. Thus, effective cardiovascular diagnostic testing is of particular importance for this group of patients. Data from prospective randomized trials with cardiovascular diagnostic testing in CKD patients and improved outcome are limited. Diagnostic stress testing for CKD patients requires special consideration. Guidelines recommend cardiovascular diagnostic testing for patients undergoing an evaluation before transplantation.

晚期慢性肾脏病的心血管评估

患有慢性肾脏疾病（CKD）的患者表现出心血管合并症的增加，而这种合并症常常被漏诊。因此，有效的心血管诊断测试对于这一组患者尤为重要。在CKD患者中进行心血管诊断测试的前瞻性随机试验和改善的结局数据有限。CKD患者的诊断性压力测试需要特别考虑。指南建议对接受移植前评估的患者进行心血管诊断测试。
