  1. Blood Pressure Control and Treatment in the CKD Patient Horacio E. Adrogue, MD James M. Atkins, MD Chester H. Fox, MD, FAAFP Jacqueline Nolen, PharmD

  6. Objectives • Discuss the key points in the treatment of Chronic Kidney disease • Explain the evidence-based treatment for blood pressure control and reduction of proteinuria among patients with diabetes, hypertension, and/or kidney disease • Define medication therapies for blood pressure control • Interpret therapy and titration guidelines for angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blocking (ARB) agents • Acknowledge potential side-effects and impacts on lab values for patients with diabetes, hypertension, and/or kidney disease

  7. CKD is a Coronary Disease Equivalent • Two New England Journal publications indicate that Cardiovascular survival is directly related to a patient’s kidney function!! NS Anavekar, et al. N Engl J Med 2004;351:1285-95 AS Go, et al. N Engl J Med 2004;351:1295-305

  8. THE KIDNEY COMPASS“Get Your Bearings on Kidney Disease” HYPERTENSION/ PROTEINURIA Bone Disease CKD Anemia Diabetes SAVE YOUR KIDNEYS AND SAVE YOUR HEART

  9. KEY POINTS IN: • Diagnosis • Recognition of Complications • Medication Safety • Treatment • Preparation for Vascular Access • When to Refer

  10. Case Vignette • GD is a 63 year old African American female with poorly controlled HTN, DM, increased lipids, obesity, GERD , gout, and sleep apnea. She has not had an MI (yet) She smokes ½ PPD • Meds include Amlodipine 10 qd, HCTZ 25 qd, Clonidine 0.3 bid, Atorvastatin 10, Metoprolol 100 bid, Insulin glargine 30 at HS, Metformin 1000 po bid, Allopurinol 300 qd, L, Omeparazole 20 qd, and CPAP at 12 cm

  11. Case continued • BP is 150/86; • Labs: HbA1C is 10.4; Hb is 9.5, HDL is 35, LDL is 115, triglycerides are 295; Ca is 9.8; Microalbumin/creatinine ratio is 54.5; Creatinine is 1.7: GFR = 39 • GD has stage 3 CKD and most of it’s complications. • What should we do for this patient?

  12. Diagnosis • Urinalysis is normal • Microalbumin/Creatinine >30 • GFR < 60 • GD has Stage 3 CKD

  13. She also has all the complications HYPERTENSION/ PROTEINURIA Bone Disease KIDNEY DZ Anemia Diabetes

  14. MEDICATION REVIEW • There are meds that are dangerous to her: We stop them or modify dose • Metformin can cause lactic acidosis • GD is taking OTC NSAIDS for her back pain • We stop this and all NSAIDS • We avoid Bisphosphonates

  15. What should we do for the Hypertension? • ACE is added to reduce proteinuria • GFR decreases to 32 but stays there. Creat is 2.1 • K+ is good at 4.0 • We leave her on the ACE • Her BP goes down to 130/70 • We stop her clonidine as it is no longer need

  16. For Her Diabetes • She starts a diet and exercise program • We encourage patient centered goal setting (Motivational Interviewing) • We intensify her insulin regimen • We add Sitagliptin or glypizide to her insulin • Her HbA1C drops to 6.8 over 6 months

  17. We Protect her Heart • We increase her statin to Simvastatin 80 mg qd • We start ASA 81 mg qd • We give her the ACS quit smoking line number • We add Niaspan 500 qd or Omega 3’s 500 tid to raise HDL and decrease Triglycerides • She quits smoking, Her HDL is now 43, LDL 68 and Triglycerides 130

  18. For Her Anemia • Colonoscopy is normal • MCV is nl at 85 • Fe is 50; TIBC is 200 for a saturation of 25% • We start darbepoeitin 40 ug or Erythropoieitin 10,000 units q 2 weeks • We start oral iron • √CBC ,Fe/TIBC monthly. We hold EPO if Hb > 12.0 • Hb rises to 11.5 and she feels much better • Transferrin saturations stay normal at above 20%

  19. We preserve her Blood Vessels • We remember “Fistulas first and Catheters Kill” • We tell her to “save an arm” for blood draws • We refuse to allow any PICC lines to be put in when GFR < 45. • We refer her to nephrology when GFR < 30

  20. Our Patient Does Well • She does not have a heart attack • Her kidney disease stabilizes • She feels better and has more energy • We delay the need for dialysis • She does not get a hip fracture • If she does progress, she will be referred early

  21. Most Important PointsEvidence Based • Use GFR, Urine Microalbumin to diagnose CKD • If GFR < 60 or Microalbumin/creat > 30 start ACE (If cough on ACE, start ARB) • Avoid NSAIDS • Refer to Nephrology for GFR < 30 • Promote smoking cessation • Keep BP < 130/80 • Keep HbA1C < 7.0 • Keep LDL < 100 • Avoid PICC lines for GFR < 45

  22. Other Important Points Strong Consensus based • Check Calcium, Phosphorous, PTH, and Vit D • Check Hemoglobin • If iron is normal, start erythropoietin if Hb< 10 or refer to Nephrology • Refer to Nephrology for Phosphorous >4.5 or PTH > 100

  23. Referral Guidelines • GFR< 30 • Rapidly deteriorating kidney function • Difficult-to-control hypertension • PTH > 100 or Phosphate > 4.5 • GFR < 20; Refer for Transplant evaluation
