San Jose, California (PRWEB), April 22, 2008 -- Worldwide, an estimated 1.9 million patients suffer from chronic kidney failure. Prevalence of renal failure is high in economically developed countries such as Japan, US and Europe. Developing countries present a contrasting scenario since leading causes of ESRD are not as widespread as in well-developed countries. While hypertension and diabetes are considered common in more than 73% of the ESRD patients, cardiovascular disease is the prime cause of death in around 61% patients. In mature markets such as Western Europe and the US, changes in reimbursement systems and restricted healthcare budgets are driving competition and price erosion.
