CKD is the aronym for"chronic kidney disease". In German-speaking countries this is understood to mean chronic kidney failure. In the International Guidelines, chronic kidney failure is now referred to as "Chronic Kidney Disease" (CKD) (Herold 2020) and in Germany as "chronic kidney disease" instead of the previous designation "chronic renal insufficiency" (Kuhlmann 2015).
