Outline • ESRD • What is CKD? • Epidemiology of CKD? • What does CKD predict? • What can I do for my CKD patient? • Where are we going with CKD?
The number of individuals initiating treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the United States, according to cause and calendar year, 1980 to 1999 (RenDER system of the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) (http://www.usrds.org)..
ESRD prevalence counts and prevalence rates in the U.S. Graphic from USRDS 2010 Annual Report
Medicare expenditures on ESRD, not adjusted for inflation. Graphic from USRDS 2010 Annual Report
ESRD • Why is the life expectancy so poor? • Why doesn’t a drug change survival in the dialysis patient? • Why is the CV risk so high? • Is it too late? • When should we start?
Measurement of GFR • Inulin clearance- Gold standard • Cockroft-Gault: 1976. Measures CrClr. Studied in 249 indiv. No AA. Overestimates due to secretion as well in edematous, hypoalbuminemic and nephrotic states • MDRD-1999. 1628 CKD patients. 6% DM. Underest if >60. Overestimates in malnourished, vegetarian diet and nephrotic states. • Cystatin C. made by nucleated cells. Altered by inflammatory states, leukocytosis, age, gender, diabetes etc. Not FDA approved.

Etiology/Progression • In the MDRD study Rate of Progression of CKD varies based on : • Underlying disease, proteinuria, Stage of CKD, comorbidities and treatments. • Retrospective analysis of MRFIT data showed that :1+proteinuria-3.1%, 2+ 15.7%, GFR 60-30 2.4%, GFR <30 41% over a 10 year period.

Access • GFR <25ml/min or rapid progression consider placement of hemodialysis access. • Transplant referral at GFR<30 and placement on transplant list at <20. • AVF • AVG • Tunneled Catheter • Periotenal dialysis
Adequacy • Is the GFR adequate to avoid: volume overload, uremic sxs- nausea, malnutrition, pericarditis, lethargy, hyperk, acidosis. Most common reasons to start- malnutrition and volume overload. • ?GFR<15ml/min per NKF are indications to consider the risks and benefits to initiating dialysis. • European Best Practice guidelines state GFR<6ml/min and consider at 8-10

Safety • NEJM 2006, Efficacy and Safety of Benazepril for advanced renal insuff • Benazepril vs placebo and both groups had BP<130/80. Both groups had 1.5gm proteinuria and GFR 25ml/min. • Benazepril reduced protenuria and lowered progression to ESRD and adverse events (hyperk) same.
BP • MDRD trial subgroup evaluated aggressive BP lowering <125/75 vs <130/80: in 585 patients mean GFR<40ml/min • Decline in GFR was lowest in <1gm proteinuria but no benefit in aggressive BP arm • Patients with 1-3gm proteinuria had more rapid progression and a modest benefit from a lower BP • >3gm had the fastest rate of progression but a substantial benefit- 10.2 to 6.5ml/min per year. • Similar trends in another group with GRF<19ml/min
