Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is considered a public health problem, characterized by the presence of kidney damage or a reduced level of kidney function (glomerular, tubular and endocrine), with progressive and irreversible loss. Objective: to identify in the literature the strategies carried out by the multidisciplinary team for the early diagnosis and treatment of CKD in the context of Primary Health Care. Method: This is an integrative literature review. The search for articles was carried out in the Virtual Health Library (VHL), opting for the Nursing Database (BDENF), using the descriptor multidisciplinary team ANDChronic renal failure. Result: All works listed for this study identified a fragile attention to chronic renal patients in primary health care and, in the experiences of the professionals of the multidisciplinary team in primary care, the lack of discussion on renal relations was identified as important topics to address these for qualifying care for patients with diseases related to renal complications. Conclusion: The improvement of the community's health is a product of the work of the multidisciplinary team, in an interdisciplinary intervention, indicating the need to reorganize health services and policies, that is, the reorientation of practices developed by health professionals.Intervention and health education, evolving the exchange of knowledge and maintaining the bond between health professionals and users, act as a transforming factor in society, in a positive way.
