The transition from advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), when estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is <30 mL/min/1.73m2, to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) represents a vulnerable period, when multiple physiologic and psychosocial changes occur as patients prepare for either dialysis or kidn...

The transition from advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), when estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is <30 mL/min/1.73m2, to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) represents a vulnerable period, when multiple physiologic and psychosocial changes occur as patients prepare for either dialysis or kidney transplant. This study is a pilot randomized controlled trial to test the safety and feasibility of studying strict versus usual BP control in a population of patients with advanced CKD (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73m2), including those with diabetes. For this pilot study, we will randomize 60 patients with advanced CKD who have elevated BP to either a home SBP target of <120 mm Hg (intervention group) versus 130-140 mm Hg (usual care group).
