In medicine, chronic kidney disease (CKD) 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]

Etiology/cause

Bilateral renal artery stenosis (RAS) may cause 5% to 15% of cases of chronic kidney disease.[2]

Prevalence

Thirteen percent of adults in the United States of America have chronic kidney disease as defined by the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI).[3] The prevalence is reduced to 11% if isolated microalbuminuria (CKD-1) is not included.[3] However, using otehr criteria, the prevalence is 2.9%.[4]

Routine reporting of the estimated glomerular filtration rate has increased the number of referrals to nephrologists[5]; however, the benefit is uncertain[6].

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.[7]

Anemia of chronic disease commonly coexists with CKD.

Treatment

The National Kidney Disease Education Program provides guidance on dosing drugs in patients with reduced glomerular filtration rate.[8]

Various drugs have been studied for slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease.[9][10][11]

Systematic reviews by the Cochrane Collaboration on treatments for chronic kidney disease
Treatment Setting Results
Protein restriction[9] Diabetic renal disease relative risk of end stage renal disease or death:
0.23
Protein restriction[10] Non-diabetic renal disease relative risk of renal death:
0.69
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors[11] Diabetic renal disease  

Medications

Aldosterone antagonists

Aldosterone antagonists may reduce proteinuria according to a systematic review by the Cochrane Collaboration.[12]

Angiotensin inhibition

Angiotensin can be inhibited with either angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors[13] or angiotensin II receptor antagonists. These medications can help patients with an elevated creatinine,[14] including those with a creatinine of 1.5 to 5.0 mg per deciliter.[15]

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.[16] Adding an aldosterone receptor antagonist such as spironolactone may add further benefit, but presumably more hyperkalemia.[17]

Erythropoeitin

For more information, see: Erythropoeitin.


Secondary hyperparathyroidism

Clinical practice guidelines from the "Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)" address management of renal osteodystrophy.[18][19]

  • 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.

If hypercalcemia develops, guidelines are available for management.ref name="pmid14520607b">National Kidney Foundation (2003). "K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for bone metabolism and disease in chronic kidney disease.". Am J Kidney Dis 42 (4 Suppl 3): S1-201. PMID 14520607.

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."[20]

Treatment of associated diseases

Coronary heart disease

Coronary heart disease is common among patients with chronic kidney disease.

Hypertension

Renal replacement therapy

For more information, see: Renal replacement therapy.


Prognosis

The estimated glomerular filtration rate and the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio can help predict who will progress to CKD5.[22]
