Aetiology of chronic kidney failure: • 1- Congenital & inherited diseases: • Polycystic kidney disease • Alport’s syndrome • Congenital hyopplasia • 2- Glomerular diseases: • Primary: Glomerulonephritides including focal glomerulosclerosis • Secondary: SLE, Vasculitis, amyloidosis • 3- Vascular disease: • Arteriosclerosis • Systemic sclerosis with renal involvement • Microscopic polyarteritis • Main and medium- sized vessel vasculitis
4- Tubulointerstitial disease: • Tubulointerstitial nephritis (idiopathic, drugs, immune mediated). • Reflux nephropathy • TB • Schistosomiasis • 5- Urinary Tract Obstruction: • Calculous disease • Prostatic disease • Pelvic tumors • 6- Diabetes mellitus • 7- Hypertension
Pathogenesis & Clinical manifestations Due to impaired functions of the kidney
- breathlessness- fatigue- generalized swelling- metallic taste- vomiting & nausea - weight loss In general Chronic renal failure symptoms includes: - seizures- mental slowness and - confusion- leg cramps- itching- pale skin color- poor appetite
Metabolic changes: -Hyperkalemia. -Metabolic acidosis. -Na+ & water retention. -Haematological changes(normochromic normocytic anaemia -Mineral & bone changes.
Hyperkalemia: • -manifested when GFR<20-25ml/mint. • -due to decreased renal ability of K+ excretion. • -Observed with sudden loads of K+ from endo. Or exo. sources: • k+ diet • Drugs (ACI, NSAIDS, K+ sparing diuretics. • Type IV RTA. • Haemolysis, infection & truma. • acidemia & lack of insulin.
Hyperkalaemia: • -Normal range of K+ (3.7-5.2 mmole/L). • -Normally asymptomatic. • - In severe cases: >7mmol/L. • tingling around tips & fingers. • loss of tendon jerk. • abdominal distention. • arrythmia • ECG changes: - Tall T-wave, PR interval & QRS complexes are lengthened.
Metabolic Acidosis Causes: -Inability to produce enough NH3 in prox.tubules. -In advanced cases, accumulation of PO4,SO4 & other organic anions cause the small anion gap.
Clinical Features: • Hyperventilation. • Respiratory distress. • Fatigue. • Reduced cardiac output. • Confusion & drowsy.
Increase in ECV: -When GFR<10-15ml/min. -failure to excrete Na+ & water. -At higher GFR, may be due to increase ingestion of Na+ & water. Leads to… -Hypertention. -Oedema. -Ascites. -CV & pulmonary oedema.
Cont., • Hematologic abnormalities: • RBC count • WBC function • Clotting and bleeding
RBC count: • Normochromic, normocytic anemia ---mainly due to low production of erythropoietin>>> low erythropoiesis. • Additional causes: • Toxic uremic effect on bone marrow • Bone marrow fibrosis due to increased PTH • Reduced RBC survival>>> hemolysis • Blood loss due to capillary fragility and poor platelet function • Increased GI blood loss due to dialysis and use of heparin • Decreased dietary intake and absorption of iron
WBC funtion • Suppression of leukocytes >>> increased susceptibility to infection.
Clotting & Bleeding • Platelet aggregation, platelet factor III & prothrombin >>>> prolonged bleeding time & increased tendency of bleeding.
Secondary hyperparathyroidism • Causes: • Hyperphosphatemia: • Suppresses hydroxylation of 25-OH vit.D to 1,25 diOH vit.D • Hypocalcemia: develops because of : • Decreased intestinal calcium absorption • Calcium binding to high plasma levels of phosphate • Decreased renal production of 1,25 diOH vit.D:
Effects on Bone: Renal Osteodystrophy • High-bone turnover: Osteitis fibrosa: • - Due to hyperparathyroidism • Osteomalacia: • Due to aluminium deposition • Defective mineralization due to decreased active vitamin D • Adynamic bone disease: • -Predominant bone lesion in chronic peritoneal dialysis • Cysts at the ends of long bones: • -Due to dialysis related amyloidosis from beta2-microglubulin accumulation in chronic dialysis (8-10 yrs)
Other manifestations of uremia in ESRD • Pericarditis >>> cardiac temponade • Encephalopathy >>> coma & death • Peripheral Neuropathy • GI symptoms: anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea • Skin manifestations: Pallor, Dryness, Pruritus, Ecchymosis • Easy fatiguability, failure to thrive • Malnutrition • Erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, amenorrhea.
Management Chronic kidney failure can not be cured but there are four goals of therapy: Slow the progression of disease. Treat underlying causes and contributing factors. Treat complications of disease. Replace lost kidney functions.
The previous goals can be achieved by the following: - Blood glucose and blood pressure control (ACEI) - Diet: low protein diet (controversial) - Treatment of hyperlipidemia. - Avoidance of nephrotoxins such as: - IV radiocontrast. - NSAIDs - Aminoglycosides.
- Treating the complications: • Fluid retention by diuretics • Anemia by injections of a recombinant human hormone, erythropoietin • Low calcium by calcium supplements • Hyperphosphatemia with dietary phosphate binders and dietary phosphate restriction. • Hyperpathayroidism with calcitriol or vitamin D analoges. • Metabolic acidosis with oral alkali supplements. - Treating the uremic manifestations by the following: 1- Hemodialysis: takes 3-4 hours and usually performed about 3 times a week.
2- Peritoneal dialysis: - It is done by putting 2 Liters of dialysis fluid into the abdominal cavity through a catheter. - The fluid will balance out electrolytes and toxic waste products and it needs to be exchanged 4 times a day. 3- Kidney transplant: can be from living related donors, living unrelated donors or cadavers.
Complications of Haemodialysis: 1- Vascular problems ( CHF) 2- Metabolic complications (Hyperparathyroidism) 3- Neuromuscular (neuropathy) 4- Hematologic (Anemia) 5- GI (bleeding) 6- Genitourinary ( Sexual dysfunction) Complications of peritoneal dialysis: 1- Infections (Peritonitis) 2- New onset diabetes (Hyperglycemia) 3- Hypervolemia (Hypertension, pulmonary edema) 4- Obesity 5- Hypokalemia Complications of renal transplantation: 1- Infections 2- Malignancies 3- Cardiovascular diseases
