About half of patients who are over the age of 65 start dialysis with a GFR of over 9, which is sort of the level below which we have clinical trial evidence for suggesting that there may not be a benefit to starting at that level of GFR. I felt like more often than not, we erred towards dialysis because there it is. It’s easy.
