One of the current problems in the field of nephrology in Russia in 2021 is the small number of certified nephrologists, which is why the main burden falls on general practitioners. This leads to a slowdown in the level of timely diagnosis and to an increase in patients at the terminal stage of the disease and in urgent need of replacement therapy. In addition, many kidney diseases may not appear for years and are diagnosed at the final stage, when the therapy is ineffective. It is possible to detect violations in time only with regular medical examination.
