WCN25-2757 COMPARISON OF BASELINE KIDNEY FUNCTION AND CHANGES IN ESTIMATED GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE BEFORE AND DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC
categories.The comparison with the Acon analyzer for urine albumin show good accuracy of 87.6% between the two measurement but more variability for urine creatinine with accuracy of 63.8%.Conclusions: This study shows that Neodocs strip with app is an accurate screening tool and can correctly classify the vast majority of patients screened accurately into A1 vs A2 or A3, allowing early referral for those with A2 or A3 for further evaluation and management.This study will need validation with larger cohorts and with measured urine albumin and urine creatinine as well.With its ease of use, being vernacular, ability to avoid need for training of community health care workers, store images of the tests and allow for validation this could be a game changer for community screening of CKD across the world.Table 1 : Comparison of ACR (A1, A2, A3), Urine Albumin and Urine Creatinine Acon Neodocs Percentage
