The KDIGO Co-Chairs appointed the Co-Chairs of the Work Group, who then assembled the Work Group to be responsible for the development of the guideline. TheWork Group consisted of domain experts, including individuals with expertise in nephrology, critical care medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, cardiology, radiology, infectious diseases and epidemiology. For support in evidence review, expertise in methods, and guideline development, the NKF contracted with the Evidence Review Team (ERT) based primarily at the Tufts Center for Kidney Disease Guideline Development and Implementation at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. The ERT consisted of physician-methodologists with expertise in nephrology and internal medicine, and research associates and assistants. The ERT instructed and advised Work Group members in all steps of literature review, critical literature appraisal, and guideline development. The Work Group and the ERT collaborated closely throughout the project. The Work Group, KDIGO Co-Chairs, ERT, liaisons, and NKF support staff met for four 2-day meetings for training in the guideline development process, topic discussion, and consensus development.
