The KDIGO Practice Guideline on Glomerulonephritis
The KDIGO Practice Guideline on Glomerulonephritis
Guideline development is a lengthy process (over 2–3 years). A working group was created consisting of clinical experts in the field of glomerular disease and an 'evidence review team' who are experts in the field of guideline development (using techniques including systematic reviews and meta analyses). The working group formulated recommendations related to a specific question or topic. Each set of recommendations was followed by a 'rationale' section, which summarizes the evidence and the reasoning for each recommendation and explains why specific wording was chosen.
