CKD is usually present in association with other chronic conditions
Heart of Birmingham PCT – Relative risk of death based on known comorbidities Hazard Ratio of Death 6 1 4 5 3 0 2 Number of co-morbidities
Aims of the lecture • To discuss risk stratification in CKD • Outline the current evidence base for the management of CKD • Discuss the relevance of AKI to CKD
Estimated prevalence of CKD in the UK is 13.5% - based on single tests • 6% with stage 3-5 CKD (eGFR <60 ml/min) • 9% with albuminuria
eGFR – brief summary • aMDRD– current internationally accepted standard for reporting kidney function when the eGFR is abnormal (<60 ml/min) • aMDRD factors 4 variables – age, sex, ethnicity and creatinine – to provide an eGFR • CockroftGaulteGFR – often used for drug dose adjustment • CG and MDRD eGFR are not equivalent • CKD EPI eGFR – a new generation eGFRs that may supersede MDRD
Beware of the (inaccuracy) of eGFR eGFR is not accurate when ≥ 60 mL/min Greatest accuracy at 30–59 mL/min; even then ‘90% of eGFRs within 30% of iGFR’!! Poggio et al. J Am Soc Nephrol. 2005; 16: 459–466
The Health improvement Network (THIN): 6.7 million patients from 426 primary care centres in the UK. CKD 3-5 prevalence 2005-2009. Jain, Calvert, Cockwell, McManus – under review
For patients with an eGFR <60 ml/min delta eGFR is as important as the overall value
Proteinuria When the term proteinuria is used people are usually referring to albuminuria Albuminuria in clinical practice is now measured by a urinary Albumin Creatinine Ratio

eGFR threshold and risk of Death or ESKD O’Hare et al, JASN 2007
Risk of ESKD in respect of eGFR and proteinuria ACR 30+ mg/mmol ACR 3-29 mg/mmol ACR < 3mg/mmol Adapted from Levey et al KI 2011
Primary Care CKD • Risk stratification • BP management • Primary and secondary prevention of CVD • Monitoring • Referral into and communication with secondary care
Secondary Care - Nephrology • Manage the established renal failure pathway • Enhanced monitoring and counseling • Prepare for dialysis • Assess for kidney transplantation • Manage secondary complications of kidney disease • Anemia of CKD (ESA, functional iron deficiency) • Secondary hyperparathyroidism
Secondary Care non-nephrology • Management of comorbidity • Drug dosing and toxicity • Management of AKI • Sense check for primary care • Referral to secondary care nephrology
Overall supporting information for the management of CKD Minimising the risk for people with CKD of progression of CKD and Cardiovascular disease (CVD) • The BP target for non-proteinuric CKD without diabetes is <140/85 • The BP target for diabetes and CKD is <130/80 • The BP target for proteinuric CKD (ACR>30) without diabetes is <130/80 • ACE inhibitors or ARBs should be used in all people with diabetes and with microalbuminuria (ACR>3.5 mg/mmol in men and 2.5 mg/mmol in women) and all people without diabetes with an ACR>30 even if BP<130/80. • The dose of ACEi/ARB should be used at the maximum tolerated. ACEiand ARBs should not be used in combination. • If there is an eGFR decline of >25% on introduction of an ACEi/ARB or dose increase of an ACEi/ARB then the drug should be stopped and advice should be obtained from secondary care nephrology • Primary and secondary prevention of CVD should be optimised; statins, anti-platelet drugs, and warfarin are not contraindicated in CKD. • NSAIDs should not be used Management of complications of CKD • People with CKD and a Hb < 10g/dl, who have had other causes of anaemia excluded should be considered for treatment of anaemia associated with CKD. Advice should be obtained from secondary care nephrology. • Please refer any uncertainties about bone chemistry through the advice and guidance portal
eService (request) From: Vanessa Miller Sent: Monday, March 05, 2012 1:13 PM To: Paul Cockwell Cc: Barbara Joyce Subject: A&G Please see the attached advice and guidance request. This young lad came to see me with testicular pain. As part of the assessment I dipsticked his urine which came up as showing marked proteinuria. Subsequent ACR came back as slightly elevated at 6.6. I saw him on a further two occasions and his urine remained positive on dipstick. His renal profile came back normal; creatinine 88, and urea 3.8. CRP was also normal at 10 and he is normotensive with blood pressure of 117/68. There is no family history of renal disease. I would be grateful for your opinion as to whether this needs any further investigation. Yours sincerely,
eService (reply) Dear Thanks for the referral. This is probably orthostatic (postural) proteinuria. I would diptest or ACR the urine on an early morning specimen (first urine pass of the day) - if -ve or trace +ve reassure him. Orthostatic proteinuria is common in male adolescents and usually goes by the age of 30. If positive let me know and we should probably review him to make sure that there is no glomerular lesion. Best wishes Paul (Cockwell) ________________________________________

Is this important? – Probably If you have CKD and are on the register vs not on the register • You have better BP control • If you have diabetes, you have a better HbA1c

Accurate measurement of BP is crucial Validated BP – BPTru
ACEior ARBs and the kidneys – the evidence base • People with diabetes and and ACR> 2.5 (men) or 3.5 (women) irrespective of BP • Non-diabetic people with CKD and hypertension and ACR >30 • Non-diabetic people with CKD and ACR > 70 mg/mmol irrespective of BP • No evidence for dual blockade
In high risk groups ACEi/ARBs provide a 20% risk reduction in ESKD From Weir, NephSap; Vol 5 No 10, 2011

Key points!! Around 50% of the increased mortality risk associated with conventional risk factors However patients with CKD are less likely to be optimally treated for risk factors than patients without CKD With advanced CKD there is an increasing association with non-traditional risk-factors
Non-traditional risk factors and an evidence base • Spironolactone – RCTs in process • Bicarbonate – RCT in process • Phosphate – phosphate binder RCT being commissioned • Allopurinol – strong supportive evidence – needs an RCT!!
A major risk factor for CKD is AKI Mehta et al, Crit Care, 2007
Impact of AKI on Hospital Mortality Multivariate analysis • Acute kidney injury, mortality, length of stay and costs in hospitalized patients • 19,982 patients admitted to academic medical centre • 9,205 patients with >1 creatinine results Chertow et al. J Am Soc Nephrol. 2005; 16: 3365–3370
