Practice points: potential strategies for improving guideline implementation in clinical practice

Strategy Description
1 Patient engagement to increase knowledge of the rationale behind eGFR and UACR testing
2 Referral of requesting doctors to clinical guidelines by pathologists
3 Implementation of HCP education strategies to encourage both initial screening and periodic follow-up monitoring of eGFR and UACR
4 Financial incentives for implementation of best practice in healthcare settings

eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; HCP, healthcare professional; UACR, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio.
