CrCl
|
CrCl=(140-age)IBW/ (SCr x 72)
women x 0.85 use LBW if morbidly obese |
|
Complications of CKD and ESRD
|
build up of waste products in blood
edema, fluid overload, CV complications metabolic acidosis anemia renal osteodystrophy ( inc. PTH) |
|
Uremia effects
|
encephalopathy
uremic fetor pulmonary edema sodium retention, volume overload anorexia, NV, constipation, metallic taste renal osteodystrophy and restless leg sydrome EPO deficiency |
|
How should you treat CKD or ESRD associated fluid retention
|
maintain Na+ intake
avoid large amounts of free water Give diuretic |
|
How should you treat diuretic resistance in CKD or ESRD patients
|
Long-term: Add a thiazide
(HCTZ 50-100mg daily-mild; 100-200mg daily-severe) Short-term: give dose more often or give continuous infusion |
|
Why does diuretic resistance occur?
|
Cells in the distal tubule recognize the high Na+ fluid-> try to hypertrophy and take in Na+
|
|
When should ethacrynic acid be used?
|
Pt is allergic to loops
|
|
Na+ imbalances
|
no salt added diet
use saline IV solutions with caution |
|
Treatment of Hyperkalemia in ESRD or CKD
|
dialysis
calcium gluconate IV nebulized albuterol insulin + glucose Kayexalate (15-30g between dialysis) sodium bicarb (not for ESRD) |
|
Name the three key problems in renal bone disease
|
hyperphosphatemia
hypocalcemia dec.Vit D |
|
Ca x Phos
|
> 55 -> patient at risk for soft tissue calcification
|
|
K+
|
4.5-5.5mEq/L
|
|
Treatment of hyperphosphatemia- calcium containing phosphate binders
|
Calcium Carbonate (Tums)-500mg elemental calcium, Calcium acetate (PhosLo)-169mg elemental calcium (2-3)...with meals
Do not exceed 1500mg/day elemental calcium |
|
Treatment of hyperphosphatemia
non calcium containing phosphate binders |
Aluminum hydroxide- only short term (4 wks); severe cases(phos>7mg/dl); SE constipation, aluminum toxicity
MagCarb- not well studied Sevelamer carbonate (Renvela) Phos 5.5-7.5mg/dL- 800mg TID Phos >7.5mg/dL- 1600mg TID dec. LDL by 15-30% dec. uric acid Lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol) want acidic stomach does not cross BBB eliminated in feces-no LT accumulation |
|
Phosphorous
|
3-4.5mg/dL
|
|
Dietary restrictions for hyperphosphatemia
|
restrict to 800-1000mg/day if:
Phos> 4.6 CKD stage 3,4 Phos>5.5 CKD stage 5 PTH> target range for CKD 3,4,5 |
|
Foods high in phosphorous
|
meats
dairy products dried beans nuts colas beer |
|
Ergocalciferol (Calciferol)
|
inactive vit D
for CKD stage 3,4 50,000IU capsule/month |
|
Calcitriol (Rocaltrol and Calcijex)
|
For CKD stage 5 and CKD 3,4 with inc. PTH conc
greatest incidence of hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia monitor: Ca, Phos, iPTH, Ca x Phos |
|
Paricalcitol (Zemplar)
|
For CKD stage 5 and CKD 3,4 with inc. PTH conc
less calcemic activity compared to calcitriol >30% reduction in PTH most favorable ADE profile monitor: Ca, Phos, iPTH, Ca x Phos |
|
Doxercalciferol
|
prohormone, so can't give to liver failure pts
higher incidence of hyperphosphatemia compared to hyperphosphatemia lower incidence of hypercalcemia compared to calcitriol >30% reduction in PTH |
|
Sensipar
|
Inc. sensitivity of Ca sensing receptors
Dec. PTH, Ca, Phos SE: N/V/D, chest pain, weakness, muscle cramps |
|
Serum PTH
|
Stage 3: 35-70pg/ml
Stage 4: 70-110pg/ml |
|
Monitoring of Stage 3 CKD
|
check iPTH every 12 months
Goal iPTH 35-70pg/ml check corrected calcium and phos every 12 months Goal Ca: 9-10mg/dl Goal Phos: 2.7-4.6mg/dl |
|
Monitoring of Stage 4 CKD
|
check iPTH every 3 months
Goal iPTH 70-110pg/ml check corrected calcium and phos every 3 months Goal Ca:9-10mg/dl Goal Phos: 2.7-4.6mg/dl |
|
Monitoring of Stage 5 CKD
|
Check iPTH every 3 months
Goal iPTH: 150-300pg/ml Check corrected calcium and phos every month Goal Ca: 8.4-9.5mg/dl Goal Phos:3.5-5.5mg/dl |
|
Corrected Ca
|
measured Ca + 0.8(4-pt serum alb)
|
|
Hgb
|
11-12g/dl
|
|
Recombinant Erythropoietin (Epogen, Procrit)
|
SQ or IV dosage
SQ is 2/3 dose of IV |
|
Darbepoietin alfa (Aranesp)
|
Can be given SC 1x/month if stable Hgb
monitor Hgb weekly during initiation, then monthly Goal: 1-2g/dl rise per month inc. dose by 25% if Hgb not inc. by 1g/dl in 4 weeks dec. dose by 25% if Hgb inc. >2g/dl in 4 wks or Hgb approaches 12 |
