Together they account for 73 percent of new diagnoses.\nAbout 96 percent of people with reduced kidney function do not even know it. The progression of kidney disease can often be slowed with early treatment\, but many people do not show symptoms until late stages of CKD.\nKidney disease affects people of all ages\, but those 60 and over are the most likely to develop it.\nCertain ethnic groups\, including African Americans\, Hispanics\, and Native Americans\, are at a higher risk of CKD.\nMortality rates for people living with kidney failure declined 28% between 2001 and 2015.\n95\,000 Americans are waiting for a kidney transplant while 215\,000 are currently living with a transplant.\n\n  \nDialysis Fast Facts  \n\n1 in 3 people starting dialysis had not seen a kidney doctor before the diagnosis.\nNearly 500\,000 Americans are receiving life-sustaining dialysis treatment.\nCardiovascular disease is prevalent in 70 percent of patients receiving hemodialysis.\n12 percent of patients currently administer their own dialysis at home.\nHome dialysis has increased 82 percent since 2007.\n\n
