Infection are second leading reason of mortality in individuals with end stages renal diseases, behind cardiovascular disease, and they can cause substantial morbidity in people with chronic kidney disease at an earlier stage. Vaccines are a method of attempting to decrease infection-related morbidity. Although individuals with the CKD or ESRD might not react to immunization and those without renal failures, sufficient seroresponse has been reported with conventional or enhanced influenza, pneumococcus, hepatitis B, or varicella vaccinations. With normal dosage regimens, influenza seems to offer sufficient protection. Despite the fact that some vaccinations are less efficacious in individuals with CKD, there is growing evidence that immunization is beneficial in these groups. Vaccination rates, on the other hand, are low. Given the growing body of data, quality improvement initiatives aimed at improving immunization rate in the patient with all stages of the CKD are required.
