In medicine, chronic kidney disease is defined as "kidney damage or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) for 3 months or more, irrespective of cause. Kidney damage in many kidney diseases can be ascertained by the presence of albuminuria, defined as albumin-to-creatinine ratio >30 mg/g in two of three spot urine specimens."[1]
Classification
There are five stages:[1]
- Stage 1 - glomerular filtration rate is 90 ml/min/1.73 m2 or more
- Stage 2 - glomerular filtration rate is 60-89 ml/min/1.73 m2
- Stage 3 - glomerular filtration rate is 30-59 ml/min/1.73 m2
- Stage 4 - glomerular filtration rate is 15-29 ml/min/1.73 m2
- Stage 5 - glomerular filtration rate is less than 15 ml/min/1.73 m2 or on renal dialysis
Etiology/cause
Bilateral renal artery stenosis (RAS) may cause 5% to 15% of cases of chronic kidney disease.[2]
Signs and symptoms
Uremia, "the illness accompanying kidney failure", may have subtle manifestations when the glomerular filtration rate falls below 60 ml/min/1.73 m2.[3]
Treatment
The National Kidney Disease Education Program provides guidance on dosing drugs in patients with reduced glomerular filtration rate.[4]
Various drugs have been studied for slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease.[5][6][7]
Treatment | Setting | Results |
---|---|---|
Protein restriction[5] | Diabetic renal disease | relative risk of end stage renal disease or death: |
Protein restriction[6] | Non-diabetic renal disease | relative risk of renal death: |
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors[7] | Diabetic renal disease |
Medications
Aldosterone antagonists
Aldosterone antagonists may reduce proteinuria according to a systematic review by the Cochrane Collaboration.[8]
Angiotensin inhibition
Angiotensin can be inhibited with either angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors[9] or angiotensin II receptor antagonists. These medications can help patients with an elevated creatinine,[10] including those with a creatinine of 1.5 to 5.0 mg per deciliter.[11]
Combining angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor antagonists increases effect, but at uncertain increase in drug toxicity such as hyperkalemia according to a meta-analysis.[12] Adding an aldosterone receptor antagonist such as spironolactone may add further benefit, but presumably more hyperkalemia.[13]
Secondary hyperparathyroidism
Clinical practice guidelines from the "Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)" address management of renal osteodystrophy.[14]
- Phosphate binders (calcium carbonate 650 mg tabs three times - Calcichew™, Titrala™) or calcium acetate (Phosex™, PhosLo™) per day by mouth.
- Vitamin D preparations such as calcitriol (0.25-0.5 µg orally once per day) or intravenous paricalcitol (Zemplar™)are given once a patient has Stage 3 disease in order to prevent secondary hyperparathyroidism.
- Calcimimetic such as cinacalcet (Sensipar™) may help.
Allopurinol
A single randomized controlled trial found that giving allopurinol to hyperuricemic patients with chronic kidney disease had a relative risk ratio of 0.35 in the prevention of "significant deterioration in renal function and dialysis dependence."[15]
Renal replacement therapy
Prognosis
The estimated glomerular filtration rate and the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio can help predict who will progress to CKD5.[16]
