GFR Implementation & CKD Program at Southern California Kaiser Permanente Peter Crooks, M.D. Physician Director, Renal Program Southern California Kaiser Permanente 4 October 2005
Kaiser PermanenteSouthern California Structure • 3 legally independent entities • Kaiser Health Plan (non-profit) • Kaiser Foundation (np - owns facilities) • Southern California Permanente Medical Group (for profit) • Kaiser pays SCPMG PMPM • SCPMG financially responsible for Medical Care, including care at non-Kaiser Facilities • Some risk sharing for good or poor financial outcomes
Kaiser PermanenteSouthern California (KPSC) • 3,100,000 Members • 90,000 CKD 1-5, 4500 ESRD • 3300 Full-time Physicians • 58 Nephrologists • 12 Geographic Areas • Bakersfield to San Diego • 11 Medical Centers • 100+ Medical Offices • 1200 per diem Physicians • 30,000 Employees
Kaiser PermanenteSouthern California Structure • Impact of Structure • Linkage of payer and provider • All in it together • Drives integration of services • Full-service Medical Centers/Hospitals • Pharmacy & DME • Lab & Imaging • Consultative Services • Drives internalization of care • Drives information sharing & QI • Drives proactive care • Disease & population management
K/DOQI CKD Staging Requires 2 or more GFR, 3 or more months apart GFR 90 60 30 15 If other markers kidney disease: proteinuria, hematuria, anatomic Complications Possible Complications Evident Renal Replacement 1 2 3 4 5 CKD Stage
Why use an Estimated GFR? • Medical evidence (EBG) • Intervention can reduce ESRD and reduce CVD • Permits Identification • PCP recognition of CKD • Permits patient to learn of condition, become educated and take action • Permits Staging/Stratification • Stage-specific intervention
Why use MDRD equation 7? • Compromise of accuracy & ease of use • Doesn’t require urine • Only 4 variables • Serum creatinine level, age, gender, black or non-black race • Good fit with data at lower GFR • Hope for better equation in future
A More Accurate Method To Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate from Serum Creatinine: A New Prediction Equation, AS. Levey, et al; Ann Intern Med. 1999;130:461-470. Equation 7: GFR = 170 x [Pcr]-0.999 x [Age]-0.176 x [0.762 female] x [1.180 black race] x [SUN]-0.170 x [Alb]+0.318 Modified Equation 7: GFR = 186 x [Pcr]-1. 154 x [Age]-0.203 x [0.742 female] x [1.212 black race]
Practical Implementation Issues • Apply only to age >18 • If not provided by lab, GFR calculation not easy • Report normal values as ‘> 90’ • Race is often not available in IT systems • Report both B & NB result, clinician interprets • GFR requires interpretation • Acute vs. chronic renal insufficiency • Age-adjusted interpretation • Stage 2 in elderly • Stage 3: GFR + 1/2AGE < 85 ? higher risk • Accuracy of serum creatinine measurement
MDRD GFR Estimate Lab Printout John Doe MR# 1234567 Creatinine 2.0 mg/dL GFR estimate non-Black race: 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface area Black race: 73 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface area This estimate of renal function assumes a steady-state and is not useful if the renal function is changing rapidly. GFR >90 is normal. GFR 60-89 may be normal for age >70.
Inter-Laboratory Comparison Testing for Creatinine (mg/dL) This is data for 16 of 45 different lab sites in Southern California Kaiser.
CKD Staging Algorithm • To automate CKD staging , need algorithm • Compare recent GFR to GFR 3+ mos prior • ‘Lock in’ CKD Stage until two GFR >3 mos apart are both out of range in same direction • q3mo GFR: 31, 35 (Stage 3), 29, 34, 26, 31, 22, 26 (Stage 4) • Lag behind current GFR and provides ‘baseline’ • Urine ignored if GFR > 60 • If GFR < 60, must decide urine and anatomic criteria (not simple) • Need more than one abnormal urine result • Focus on protein, ignore hematuria, etc.
CKD Staging Algorithm Kaiser Permanente So California Proteinuria = macroscopic > 300 mg/day or random microalbumin >= 300 mcg/mg creatinine on 2 occasions DM means diagnosis of diabetes mellitus Estimate of 2 standard deviations below mean for age ~ GFR + 1/2 Age < 85
CKD Staging AlgorithmAll Possible Outcomes • Not determined - no serum creatinine available • At Risk - age > 65, HTN, DM, Family History • No CKD - 1 or more serum creatinine available, GFR > 90, U/A OK • Chronically Reduced GFR stage 2 • GFR 60-89 3+ mos, urine/anatomy normal • Chronicity Unknown Reduced GFR 2 -5 • low GFR not meeting 3+ mo criteria • CKD Stage 1 • CKD Stage 2 • CKD Stage 3 High-risk ESRD/Low-risk ESRD • CKD Stage 4 • CKD Stage 5 Future renal replacement/No future renal replacement • CKD Stage 5 Hemodialysis • CKD Stage 5 Peritoneal Dialysis • CKD Stage 5 Transplant • CKD substage 1-5
Total adult population: 2,200,000
GFR >90 or no CR 60-89 30-59 15-29 NHANES III 64% 31% 4.3% 0.2% PERCENTAGES POPULATION • SCPMG • 68% • 27% • 3.4% • 0.17%
Modified Stage 3High-risk if GFR + ½ Age < 85 • Roughly divides Stage 3 Population in half • Of CKD stage 3 patients going to ESRD, most all are from high risk group
CKD Staging Results Kaiser Permanente So California CKD patients account for 21% of all CAD registry patients CKD patients account for 37% of all CHF registry patients

Nephrology Referralis strongly encouraged for all patients with... • CKD 4 & 5 (GFR < 30) • unless other terminal disease/co-morbidity
For patients CKD 1-3,consider Nephrology referral if …. • Proteinuria > 1000 mg/day • ~random microalbumin 1000 • especially if persists despite control of DM, HTN, and use ACE I/ARB • Clarification of CKD diagnosis • Very difficult to control Blood Pressure • Suspected EPO-deficiency anemia • Unexplained acute fall GFR > 25-50%
AT LEAST ONE OUTPT. NEPHROLOGY VISIT 1998-2002 CKD 1 7% CKD 2 13% CKD 3 14% CKD 4 77% CKD 5 FUTURE RRT 94% WHO ARE KP NEPHROLOGISTS SEEING?
CKD Stage 4-5 (Pre-ESRD) DM requires Case Management
CKD EducationKaiser Permanente So California • Education: defined Classes • Kidney Class: any CKD Stage • Choices Class: Stage 4-5pre • Group Visits • Individual Counseling • Social Worker, Care Manager, Nutritionist
Hospital Days, Nephrologist Visits& Modality EducationKaiser Permanente So CaliforniaCKD 4 & 5pre:4263 Patients
CKD and CVD • CKD patients = highest CVD risk category • CVD risk factors accelerate CKD • CKD uniquely exacerbates CVD • Most CKD patients die of CVD before ESRD • Majority of new ESRD patients have CVD • CKD need treatment for CVD risk reduction
CVD Risk vs. GFR in ARICManjunath et al. J Am Coll Cardiol 2003; 41: 47–55 GFR 15-59 (n=444), adj RR 1.38 (1.02, 1.87) GFR 60-89 (n=7,665), adj RR 1.16 (1.00, 1.34) 10 ml/min lower GFR, adj RR 1.05 (1.02, 1.09)
When you see this... Think this... HIGH CVD RISK
