ABSTRACT

Living with chronic kidney disease is associated with hardships for patients and their care partners. Empowering patients and their care partners, including family members and friends involved in their care, may help minimize the burden and consequences of chronic kidney disease-related symptoms to enable increased life participation. There is a need to broaden the focus on living well with kidney disease and reengagement in life, including emphasis on the patient being in control. The World Kidney Day Joint Steering Committee has declared 2021 the year of "Living Well with Kidney Disease" in an effort to increase education about and awareness of the important goal of patient empowerment and life participation. This calls for the development and implementation of validated patient-reported outcome measures to assess and address areas of life participation in routine care. It could be supported by regulatory agencies as a metric for quality care or to support labeling claims for medicines and devices. Funding agencies could establish targeted calls for research that address the priorities of patients. Patients with kidney disease and their care partners should feel supported to live well through concerted efforts by kidney care communities, including during pandemics. In the overall wellness program for patients with kidney disease, the need for prevention should be reiterated. Early detection with prolonged course of wellness despite kidney disease, after effective secondary and tertiary prevention programs, should be promoted. World Kidney Day 2021 continues to call for increased awareness of the importance of preventive measures across populations, professionals, and policy makers, applicable to both developed and developing countries.

Resumo Viver com doença renal crônica (DRC) está associado a dificuldades para os pacientes e seus cuidadores. Capacitar os pacientes e seus cuidadores, incluindo familiares ou amigos envolvidos em seus cuidados, pode ajudar a minimizar a carga e as consequências dos sintomas relacionados à DRC para permitir uma participação efetiva na vida. Há uma necessidade de se ampliar o foco em viver bem com a doença renal e de um reengajamento na vida, com ênfase em pacientes assumindo o controle. O Comitê Diretor Conjunto do Dia Mundial do Rim (DMR) declarou 2021 como o ano de "Viver Bem com Doença Renal", em um esforço para aumentar a educação e a conscientização sobre o importante objetivo do fortalecimento do paciente e maior participação na vida. Isto exige o desenvolvimento e a implementação de medidas de desfechos relatados pelos pacientes que tenham como objetivo avaliar e abordar áreas como a participação na vida dentro dos cuidados de rotina. O assunto poderia ser apoiado por agências reguladoras como uma métrica para o atendimento de qualidade ou para apoiar as reivindicações de rotulagem para medicamentos e dispositivos. As agências de financiamento poderiam estabelecer chamadas direcionadas para pesquisas que abordem as prioridades dos pacientes. Os pacientes com doença renal e seus cuidadores devem se sentir apoiados para viver bem através de esforços conjuntos por parte das comunidades de cuidados renais, inclusive durante a pandemia. No programa de bem-estar geral para pacientes com doenças renais, a necessidade de prevenção deve ser reiterada. Ações de detecção precoce com curso prolongado de bem-estar, apesar da doença renal, após programas eficazes de prevenção secundária e terciária, devem ser promovidas. O DMR 2021 continua a exigir uma maior conscientização da importância de medidas preventivas em todas as populações, profissionais e legisladores, aplicáveis tanto aos países desenvolvidos quanto aos em desenvolvimento.

Vivre avec l'insuffisance rénale chronique (IRC) représente un fardeau pour les patients et leurs partenaires soignants, dont leurs familles et amis. Une façon d'alléger ce fardeau et de réduire les conséquences des symptômes de l'IRC sur la participation à la vie serait de favoriser une plus grande autonomie des patients et de leurs partenaires soignants. Pour ce faire, l'accent mis sur le bien vivre avec la maladie et sur la participation à la vie doit être élargi en privilégiant notamment de mettre les patients en contrôle. Pour accroître l'éducation et la sensibilisation sur la responsabilisation des patients et, ultimement, encourager leur participation à la vie, le Comité directeur bipartite de la Journée Mondiale du Rein (JMR) a déclaré 2021 l'année du « bien vivre avec une maladie rénale ¼. Une stratégie qui nécessite l'élaboration et la mise en œuvre de mesures validées des résultats signalés par le patient afin d'aborder la participation à la vie dans les soins courants. Cette stratégie pourrait être appuyée par les organismes de réglementation comme mesure de qualité des soins ou pour appuyer les demandes relatives à l'étiquetage des médicaments et des dispositifs. Les organismes subventionnaires pourraient quant à eux établir des appels d'offres à objectifs de recherche définis afin de répondre aux priorités des patients. Les patients et leurs partenaires soignants devraient se sentir soutenus, même en contexte de pandémie, par des efforts concertés des communautés de soins en santé rénale. Dans le cadre du program de bien-être global destiné aux patients atteints d'une néphropathie, il convient de réitérer la prévention. À la suite de programs efficaces de prévention secondaire et tertiaire, il convient également de promouvoir une détection précoce avec une évolution prolongée du bien-être malgré une maladie rénale. La JMR 2021 continue d'appeler à une plus grande sensibilisation des populations, des professionnels et des décideurs quant à l'importance de mesures préventives applicables tant dans les pays développés que dans les pays en développement.
