慢性肾脏疾病的影响很难用传统的死亡率和生物学过程来量化。需要新的方法来量化肾脏疾病的结果。各种各样的方法已经变得可用，现在正在一些研究中使用。在一些临床研究中，心理测量学方法，如疾病影响概况和肾脏疾病问卷，已被证明对变化做出反应。为了估计肾脏疾病投资的成本效益，需要使用决策理论方法。我们认为，应该认真考虑将这些决策理论方法纳入临床试验和美国肾脏数据系统。
The effects of chronic kidney disease have been difficult to quantify using traditional measures of mortality and biological processes. New approaches to the quantification of outcomes in kidney disease are required. A wide variety of methods have become available and are now in use in some studies. Psychometric approaches, such as the Sickness Impact Profile and the Kidney Disease Questionnaire, have been shown to be responsive to change in some clinical studies. In order to estimate the cost-effectiveness of investments in kidney disease, decision theory approaches are required. We argue that these decision theory approaches should be given serious consideration for inclusion in clinical trials and in the US Renal Data System.
