Session 5:Which decision in elderly with CKD? International Seminar on Renal Epidemiology Dr Aine Burns MD FRCP MSc Med Ed. Consultant Nephrologist, Centre for Nephrology Royal Free Hospital Campus UCL London UK Paris 22-23May 2012
Which decision in elderly with CKD? Dialysis withholding in CKD 5!"Maximum conservative management for elderly patients with renal failure stage 5"
Conservative Kidney Management: How and whatcan& should we audit? What is important to us and what is important to our patients and their close persons???
Conservative Kidney Management: How and whatcan we audit? First instance numbers Quality standards which deliver on their intent
Overview • Where we have come from • Where we are now • Where we want to go • MCM data set and Quality outcome measures
A remarkable journey! • 1964: Prof. Robin Eady and “the lucky 13!”

Patients were willing to forgo 7 months of life expectancy to reduce the number of required visits to hospital and 15 months of life expectancy to increase their ability to travel. Interpretation: Patients approaching end-stage kidney disease are willing to trade considerable life expectancy to reduce the burden and restrictions imposed by dialysis.

Quality of death: MCM patients were 4 times more likely to die at home or in a hospice Final illness short 3-7 days eGFR ± 4ml/min Pulmonary oedema rarely an issue Carson & Burns, CJASN 2008
MCM: A new phase in a remarkable journey • Legitimate & positive treatment option chosen by approx 10% of our elderly patients which delivers: • maintained functional status for many months • a short final illness • 4 times greater chance of dying at home or in hospice setting • intervention free out of hospital days may not differ much from patients who choose dialysis
Will home assisted PD influence numbers choosing MCM?? • What about un-captured patients?
Key results During the period 2003–2007, there were nearly 21,500 new cases of ESKD in Australia, amounting to about 21 cases per 100,000 people. For every new case who receives dialysis or transplant, there is about one new case that does not.

Symptom burden • Performance status/trajectories • Survival & hospital free days • Quality of death (preferred place of death) • Decision making • late changes in modality • advanced care plans/advanced directives, • will availability of home assisted PD influence patient/family choice
Decision making Shared decision making Why do patients choose MCM? How & when should we have these conversations? Do many patients change their minds? The time factor!!
Decision making Shared decision making (national shared decision making programme) Why do patients choose MCM? (don’t want to be a burden/ don’t want change/ all religions & ethnic groups more or less equally represented) How and when should we have these conversations? (? as early as possible) Do many patients change their minds? (not many) The time factor!! Value of trained nurse specialists
New method for estimating the total incidence of ESKD The number of non-KRT-treated cases is estimated using a defined set of cause of death codes in the national mortality data, with the aim of counting people who died with ESKD in the study period. This number can then be added to the already available number of dialysis and transplant cases recorded on a national register. Data linkage is used to ensure that people treated with dialysis or transplant who die during the study period are only counted once.
