The Danish Registry on Regular Dialysis and Transplantation:completeness and validity of incident patient registration.

Background. The Danish National Registry on Regular Dialysis and Transplantation (NRDT) provides systematic information on the epidemiology and treatment of end-stage chronic kidney disease in Denmark. It is therefore of major importance that the registry is valid and complete. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the registration of incident patients on chronic renal replacement therapy (RRT). [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
