Reflux nephropathy (RN) often presents in early adulthood with various clinical manifestations of chronic kidney disease. Reflux nephropathy was previously called chronic pyelonephritis as it was believed to result from childhood recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). It occurs in approximately 1 to 3 percent of children and is associated with 7 to 17 percent of children developing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) across the globe. RN may account for up to 10 percent of ESRD etiologies in adult patients. This activity describes the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of reflux nephropathy and illustrates the role of team-based interprofessional care for affected patients.
