TREVINO-BECERRA, Alejandro. Intrinsic and extrinsic disorientation in nephrological care. Gac. Méd. Méx [online]. 2022, vol.158, suppl.1, pp.13-16.  Epub 20-Ene-2023. ISSN 2696-1288.  https://doi.org/10.24875/gmm.m22000687.

This essay shows that the development of nephrology in recent years has been basically in dialysis and kidney transplantation, but access to the entire population that requires it is insufficient and limited, which is a universal phenomenon. In addition, the fragmentation of the specialty into other subspecialities has been generated. Among other reasons that prevent decision makers from deciding to expand tertiary nephrology care to a larger population, 12 intrinsic factors and four extrinsic factors are identified, together with limited resources dedicated to research; therefore, national societies of nephrology are encouraged to act and try to modify those factors that are obstacles to the development of the specialty and the expansion of nephrological care.
