display: SYNOPSIS - Chronic Kidney Disease KEY POINTS Decline in function of the kidney characterized by at least 3 months of reduced GFR (less than 60 mL/minute/ 1.73 m²) or at least 3 months of structural or functional kidney damage Assessment of both GFR and albuminuria is necessary to diagnose chronic kidney disease and monitor disease progression GFR is most commonly estimated through measuring serum creatinine and the use of GFR estimating equations, either the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation or the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation Albuminuria is measured by urine albumin/creatinine ratio; greater than 30 mg/g indicates albuminuria Chronic kidney disease is commonly associated with hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease First line therapy includes ACE inhibitors and/or angiotensin II receptor blockers to reduce albuminuria and hypertension If left untreated, chronic kidney disease can progress to end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis or renal transplant Symptoms of end-stage renal disease (eg, pruritus, refractory electrolyte imbalances, metabolic acidosis, severe nausea, neurologic impairments) typically occur when GFR is 5 to 10 mL/minute/1.73 m² Carefully monitor electrolyte levels, hemoglobin, parathyroid hormone levels, and sodium bicarbonate levels to detect complications of chronic kidney disease, including cardiovascular disease, anemia, bone mineral disease, and metabolic acidosis URGENT ACTION Hyperkalemia may require urgent treatment in patients being treated for chronic kidney disease Urgent treatment consists of calcium chloride or calcium gluconate and regimens of sodium bicarbonate, glucose and insulin, or nebulized albuterol PITFALLS Early stages are often asymptomatic, causing chronic kidney disease to be untreated, leading to further progression of kidney damage and worse prognosis

display: Obtain serum creatinine for evaluation of GFR Estimate GFR from serum creatinine using 1 of 2 equations Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation is preferred for reporting estimated GFR; more accurately represents true GFR, especially at GFR above 60 mL/minute/1.73 m² Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation underestimates true GFR in patients with GFR above 60 mL/minute/1.73 m² Less accurate than the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation, though still widely used by many laboratories A GFR calculator (using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation) is available from the National Kidney Foundation and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases Gold standard is to measure clearance of continuously infused inulin over 24 hours; however, this is neither practical nor cost effective If GFR is suspected to be inaccurate (eg, severe malnutrition, paraplegia, amputated extremity) testing involves a 24-hour urine collection GFR equations Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation43 GFR (mL/minute/1.73 m²) = 141 × min(Scr/κ, 1)^α × max(Scr/κ, 1)^-1.209 × 0.993^Age × 1.018 [if female] × 1.159 [if black] Scr = serum creatinine κ = 61.9 for females and 79.6 for males α = -0.329 for females and -0.411 for males Min indicates the minimum of Scr/κ or 1 Max indicates the maximum of Scr/κ or 1 Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation GFR (mL/minute/1.73 m²) = 175 × (Scr)^-1.154 × (age)^-0.203 × 0.742 [if female] × 1.212 [if black] Classification according to GFR category G1: normal or high renal function GFR: greater than 90 mL/minute/1.73 m² G2: mildly decreased renal function GFR: 60 to 89 mL/minute/1.73 m² G3a: mildly to moderately decreased renal function GFR: 45 to 59 mL/minute/1.73 m² G3b: moderately to severely decreased renal function GFR: 30 to 44 mL/minute/1.73 m² G4: severely decreased renal function GFR: 15 to 29 mL/minute/1.73 m² G5: kidney failure GFR: less than 15 mL/minute/1.73 m² Combined GFR and albuminuria stage more accurately denotes the risk of progression of chronic kidney disease Verify chronicity of kidney disease If GFR less than 60 mL/minute/1.73 m² (GFR categories G3a-G5) or markers of kidney damage present, review history and previous measurements to determine duration of kidney disease If duration is greater than 3 months, chronic kidney disease is confirmed If duration is less than 3 months or unclear, chronic kidney disease is not confirmed; patients may have chronic kidney disease or acute kidney diseases (including acute kidney injury) or both, and tests should be repeated accordingly

display: According to the Joint National Committee-8, establish a target blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg for patients with chronic kidney disease patients (expert opinion, grade E). According to the American College of Physicians, select either an ACE inhibitor (moderate-quality evidence) or an angiotensin II-receptor blocker (high-quality evidence) for patients with hypertension and stage 1 to 3 chronic kidney disease. After starting an ACE inhibitor, measure the short-term follow-up creatinine level and use the results to prompt further attention if it shows a rise of greater than 30%. Consider alternative causes of acute kidney injury as well as renal artery stenosis. Consider stopping the ACE inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker medication.

type: Justification
display: Consider using thiazides as diuretics in patients with early stages of chronic kidney disease. When GFR falls below 30-50 mL/minute/1.73 m2, thiazides as less effective. Give loop diuretics once or twice daily to patients with GFR less than 30 mL/minute/1.73 m2 (chronic kidney disease stages 4-5). Instruct patients to follow a low-sodium diet in addition to using diuretics to optimize volume status. Limit the use of potassium-sparing diuretics, such as triamterene and amiloride, in patients with chronic kidney disease because of the risk of hyperkalemia.

display: Electrolyte analysis Abnormalities of electrolytes and other solutes suggest disorders of renal tubular reabsorption and secretion Persistent abnormalities (lasting more than 3 months) in serum phosphate, potassium, parathyroid hormone, or calcium levels indicate decreased renal function associated with chronic kidney disease Potassium: greater than 5.5 mEq/L indicative of hyperkalemia or less than 4.0 mEq/L indicating hypokalemia Parathyroid hormone: results greater than 65 pg/mL are above the reference range Calcium: less than 8.4 mg/dL is below the reference range Phosphorus: less than 4.6 mg/dL is below the reference range Provide management of electrolyte disturbances Hyperkalemia and hypokalemia High (greater than 5.5 mEq/L) or low (less than 4 mEq/L) potassium levels are associated with increased mortality for patients with chronic kidney disease Patients with chronic kidney disease have a high risk of developing hyperkalemia, which can cause cardiac arrhythmias and sudden death 8% to 73% of patients with chronic kidney disease develop hyperkalemia compared to 2.6% to 3.2% in the general population Patients with hypokalemia have an 82% increased risk of reaching end-stage renal disease Hyperphosphatemia Target serum phosphorus is 2.7 to 4.6 mg/dL for categories G3 and G4, and 3.5 to 5.5 mg/dL for category G5 Reduce phosphorus intake and consult nephrologist for treatment with phosphate binders Guideline recommends monitoring serum levels of calcium, phosphate, PTH, and alkaline phosphatase activity beginning in CKD G3a (Level of recommendation: 1C). In children, we suggest such monitoring beginning in CKD G2 (Level of recommendation: 2D). In patients with CKD G3a–G5D, it is reasonable to base the frequency of monitoring serum calcium, phosphate, and PTH on the presence and magnitude of abnormalities, and the rate of progression of CKD(Level of recommendation: Not Graded). Reasonable monitoring intervals would be: In CKD G3a–G3b: for serum calcium and phosphate, every 6–12 months; and for PTH, based on baseline level and CKD progression. In CKD G4: for serum calcium and phosphate, every 3–6 months; and for PTH, every 6–12 months. In CKD G5, including G5D: for serum calcium and phosphate, every 1–3 months; and for PTH, every 3–6 months. In CKD G4–G5D: for alkaline phosphatase activity, every 12 months, or more frequently in the presence of elevated PTH. In CKD patients receiving treatments for CKD-MBD, or in whom biochemical abnormalities are identified, it is reasonable to increase the frequency of measurements to monitor for trends and treatment efficacy and side effects (Level of recommendation: Not Graded).
