1 in 7 Australians, the equivalent of the entire population of Sydney, have at least one clinical sign of existing Kidney
Disease such as reduced kidney function and the presence of protein or blood in their urine, according to Kidney Health
Australia.
Anne Wilson, CEO of Kidney Health Australia launching the 2009 Kidney Health Week campaign under the banner of
'Making a Noise About the Silent Killer' said protein is found in the urine of 2.4 % of the Australian population and is an
indication of the kidneys not functioning correctly.
"It is four times higher in people with diabetes and five times higher in those people with high blood pressure which affects
1 in 4 Australians. 50% do not have blood pressure managed to target levels.
"High blood pressure is found in 80% of patients with failed kidneys, and is a major contributor to Chronic Kidney Disease
which kills 40 people a day in Australia.
"High blood pressure in people with Chronic Kidney Disease managed in primary care was controlled to the treatment
target in only 37% of cases, in one recent large Australian study."
Kidney Health Week this year will focus on the critical issue of controlling blood pressure and also target obesity which is a
major risk factor for kidney disease. More than 2.6 million adult Australians are considered to be obese.
The major part of the battle against Kidney Disease is awareness as people can lose up to 90% of their kidney function
before experiencing any symptoms and within a few days can find they are on dialysis, hence the name 'The Silent Killer'.
