The Effect of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) on the CardioVascular System Lesley C. Dinwiddie MSN, RN, FNP,CNN February 24th, 2011
Thanks to the Cardinal Chapter for giving me the opportunity to increase awareness about the under-diagnosed and under-treated public health threat that is Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) plus CardioVascular Disease!
ICEER – Institute for Clinical Excellence, Education, and Research – nurse organized, non-profit group promoting education about CKD Acknowledgement of Patricia McCarley, RN, MSN, NP, co-creator of this presentation. Consultant for Teleflex Medical, Hemosphere, SurgPro, and Genentech – no conflicts of interest to disclose for this presentation. Disclosures
Overall Objective Explain the scenario of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the effect of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the patient with chronic kidney disease.
What is the leading cause of Mortalityin our CKD patient population?
Focused Objectives • Describe the link/the synergy between patients with CKD and CVD. • Teach how to recognize patients at risk for CKD, review screening for CKD and assessment of eGFR. • Discuss factors related to progression and slowing of progression of CKD and CVD. • Identify complications of CKD and strategies to improve outcomes.

Mary is a 70 year old female with history of CKD, type 2 diabetes mellitus, twenty year history of hypertension, CHF, hyperlipidemia, and CAD with recent history of MI and angioplasty. Patient presents to the office Chief complaint: “shortness of breath” CASE 1
Assessment in the office: BP 118/50 P-112 R-24 T-97.4 Alert & oriented x 3 No neck vein distention or apparent edema Lungs – crackles in bases RRR, SEM III/VI No focal neurological deficits Meds: lisinopril, furosemide, clopidogrel, aspirin, isosorbide, carvedilol, glipizide, and rosiglitazone, atorvastatin CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath”
What are your differential diagnoses? CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath” Does the fact that this patient has CKD affect your choice of diagnoses?
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE MI Arrhythmia CHF Anemia OTHER CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath”
Cardiovascular Disease ?? - MI - Arrhythmia CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath” Cardiovascular Disease ?? - MI - Arrhythmia Patient with recent MI and angioplasty and…… CKD.

MI symptoms in patients with CKD: 4,482 patients seeking care for AMI - community wide study involving 11 medical centers in Worchester, MA during 4 study years (1997, 1999, 2001, 2003) CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath” • Patients with CKD were less likely • to report chest pain, arm pain, shoulder pain, while being more likely to report shortness of breath Sosnov, J et al.

CVD and CKD – Morbidity • Cardiac arrhythmia admission rates are 2 times as common in CKD population • 269 patients with stable CHF - longer PQ and QRS intervals were inversely related to eGFR (cardiac-event free survival rate 51% in pts with CKD vs 81% in those without CKD) USRDS, 2004 Annual Report Bruch, C et al. Int J of Cardiol. 2007. 118(3):375-380.
Cardiovascular Disease ?? MI or arrhythmia CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath” • Shortness of breath – YES • Exam reveals - RRR • MI – possible – must continue to consider • in the differential and evaluate further

Congestive Heart Failure? CASE 1 – cc: “shortness of breath” • Cardio-Renal Syndrome* – “ A syndrome in which the heart OR kidney fails to compensate for the functional impairment of the respective organ, resulting in a vicious cycle that will ultimately result in decomposition of the entire circulatory system.” • Boerrigter,G.

Proteinuria is Associated withAdverse CV Outcomes – LIFE study N= 7143 <2.2 mg/g >83.3 mg/g Adjusted Hazard Ratio Watchtell et al, Ann of Intern Med, 2003
Albuminuria Prevend Study • In a population-based study (subset n = 9000) the presence of albuminuria enhanced the predictivevalue of ST-T segment changes in a restingECG for all-cause and CVD mortality. • The impact of the presence of microalbuminuriaon all-cause mortality was greater than other more traditional cardiac risk factors including hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, cigarette smoking, obesity, and diabetes. Diercks et al, JACC, 2002
Microalbuminuria – CV Risk Factor? • Despite the fact that the Framingham study established in 1984 that proteinuria is an important risk marker of CV mortality in the general population, albuminuria has never been added to the list of important CV risk factors. • Confirmed by Arnlov et al, persons with normal BP, without DM and normal GFR – microalbuminuria is a strong predictor of CV outcome. Kannel, A Heart J,108,1984 Arnlov et al, Circulation, 2005
