1.2 At least 13,000 people die from kidney (renal) disease in the UK each year, although this is an underestimation as many deaths of patients with renal failure are not recorded as such in mortality statistics. Kidney diseases can occur suddenly (‘acute’) or over months and years (‘chronic’). Chronic kidney disease is relatively common, with the majority of patients being elderly and having mild impairment of their renal function.
