CKD for the internist July 2014 Alison Landrey MD Charlie MacLean, MD and Virginia Hood, MD
Learning Objectives • Identify and categorize CKD • Perform an appropriate evaluation for underlying causes of CKD • Identify and modify risk factors for progression of CKD • Understand and monitor for metabolic and hematological complications of CKD • Renally dose medications • Know when to refer to nephrology • Be able to explain CKD to patients
Definitions! • CKD: • either kidney damage OR GFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2 for >3 mo • Kidney damage: • abnormal pathology, imaging, U/A • Proteinuria: • “microalbuminuria”: • 30-300 mg/g • Nephrotic range proteinuria: • >3 g/day (>3000 mg/g spot protein/creat) • If protein on dip – this is abnormal. Repeat up to 2-3 times to see if transient/benign etiology. If persistent get a spot protein/creatinine • Note dip picks up mostly albumin • eGFR: • MDRD equation: Age, serum cr, gender, race (black or non-black) • If serum creatinine is in normal range eGFR is less accurate for an individual : 24 hour urine collection for creatinine clearance measurement help with accuracy in limited circumstances. • Note: a complete 24 h urine collection should contain creatinine amount of • 15-20 mg/kg/day women; 20-25 mg/kg/day men
Who should be screened?What constitutes screening? Screening: yearly serum Cr AND urine prot or alb/creat • Metabolic syndromes • Diabetes • Obesity • Cardiovascular disease • Hypertension • Hyperlipidemia • Smoking • Infections • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) • Hepatitis C virus infection • Malignancy • Family history of kidney disease (e.g. PKD) • Nephrotoxic drugs • History of AKI (!)

Major Causes of Severe Chronic Kidney Disease • Diabetes mellitus 44.9 % • Type 1 3.9 • Type 2 41.0 • Hypertension 27.2 % • Glomerulonephritis 8.2 % • Chronic interstitial nephritis or obstruction 3.6 % • Hereditary or cystic disease 3.1 % • Secondary glomerulonephritis or vasculitis 2.1 % • Neoplasms or plasma-cell dyscrasias 2.1 % • Miscellaneous conditions 4.6 % • Uncertain or unrecorded cause 5.2%
once CKD is established, is any Further Testing indicated? • Urinalysiswith microscopic sediment analysis • If abnormal sediment -> referral for biopsy may be indicated • if hematuria and/or proteinuria consider • ANA/C3/C4, ANCA • HIV, Hep C/hep b • SPEP, serum free light chains, urine immunofix • Kidney Ultrasound • Kidney size can be helpful in diagnosis of etiology • Cystic kidney disease • Hydronephrosis • Diabetic kidney disease: special considerations • Typically with proteinuria and larger kidneys • Typically accompanied by retinopathy, but not always • Consider other causes if the degree of kidney disease does not fit with the diabetes clinical picture

Learning Objectives • Identify and categorize CKD ✔ • Perform an appropriate evaluation for underlying causes of CKD ✔ • Identify and modify risk factors for progression of CKD • Understand, monitor for and if possible modify risk for cardiovascular, metabolic and hematological complications of CKD • Renally dose medications • Know when to refer to nephrology • Be able to explain CKD to patients
Modify risk of progression of CKD • Most important modifiable risk factors for progression: • HTN, higher amount of proteinuria • Proteinuria • Should be on an ACE/ARB regardless of BP • Goal <300-500 mg/g • DM • Goal A1C: as close to 7 as possible if this can be achieved without causing hypoglycemia – not proven to slow progression • dietary protein restriction to 0.5-0.7 g/day if more advanced CKD: delay progression to uremia and small trials show delay progression of CKD • Bicarb if metabolic acidosis (more later)
Hypertension treatment effect mirrors observational risk effect Observational risk effect Treatment effect Lewington et al, Lancet 2002 High blood pressure is the most modifiable risk factor for reducing stroke and preventing progression of kidney & cardiovascular disease
HyperTeNsion MGMT • CKD patients with HTN often require two agents: • Tip from Dr. Hood: many patients do better on two drugs at lower doses rather than one at higher dose • ACE-I/ARB 1st choice • Proven to slow progression of CKD in patients with proteinuria • Has not been shown to slow progression of CKD in patients with proteinuria <500 mg/day BUT RAAS inhibition may have CV benefits too • Studies have not shown benefit to combination of ACE-I/ARB • Diuretics, esp if e/o fluid overload (edema e.g.) • Thiazide if GFR >30 • Loop if GFR <30 – DON’T BE AFRAID of furosemide in CKD • *Remember to advise on salt restriction as well* • Other agents to consider if needed • BB esp if CAD/angina • CCBs: nondihydropyridines (diltiazem, verapamil) also have an antiproteinuric effect but dihydropyridines better for BP control • Ok to add spironolactone if GFR >30 and K low enough • Hydralazine, alpha blocker, clonidine if need 4-5 drugs
More on ACE-I/ARB ARBs appear to be as beneficial as ACE-I in CKD but have less data Trials showing benefit excluded hypovolemic pts and pts with RAS
Blood Pressure goals • Goal BP <140/90 according to JNC8 for all CKD • ? Goal <130/80 for CKD with albuminuria >30 mg/day or proteinuria >500-1000 mg/day • MDRD study: 3 year f/u • <1 g/day proteinuria: no benefit to aggressive BP control (target 125/75) vs. target 140/90 • Evidence for delayed progression with tighter BP control if proteinuria/albuminuria • ACE-I used in both groups (about ½ of all enrolled) • Consider more relaxed goals <150/90 if elderly (>60? >80?)

Learning Objectives • Identify and categorize CKD ✔ • Perform an appropriate evaluation for underlying causes of CKD ✔ • Identify and modify risk factors for progression of CKD✔ • Understand, monitor for and if possible modify risk for cardiovascular, metabolic and hematological complications of CKD • Renally dose medications • Know when to refer to nephrology • Be able to explain CKD to patients
Cardiovascular risk • 17 fold higher risk of CV events in CKD vs. non-CKD patients (Should CKD be considered a CAD risk equivalent?) • Most randomized trials of CV disease have excluded patients with CKD IV and V • Lifestyle recommendations remain key • Smoking cessation • Exercise • Diet • Remember again: low sodium • Aspirin? • Assess risks and benefits and use SDM • E.g. if CV risk estimated to be >10% and no excess bleeding risk, consider adding 81 mg ASA daily
Statin therapy? • Lancet 2011: CKD 3-5: risk reduction from 13.4% to 11.3% over 5 years for all major CV events. Does not modify risk of progression of CKD • Still take into account all risk factors (e.g. CV/framingham risk)
Prevalence of chemical and metabolic consequences of CKD increase with decreasing GFR, notably < 60 ml/min JASN 20: 164–171, 2009
Metabolic complications/Mineral and Bone disorders • Hyperkalemia • esp with ACE/ARB, K-sparing diuretic • Metabolic Acidosis • Treat with sodium bicarb if serum bicarb <22 • Shown to slow progression of kidney disease • Dr. Hood recommends baking soda (1/2 tsp/day) • Metabolic Bone disease - complex • For CKD 3 and above: check PTH, Vitamin D-25, calcium and phosphorus • In general: refer to nephrology if PTH or phosphorus high
More on PTH/phos/ca physiology • In CKD 2-3, increased PTH helps maintain normal serum Ca • Stage 4-5: sustained hyperphosphatemia leads to: • Even higher levels of PTH which further suppresses 1,25 Vit D production and can lead to hypocalcemia • Increased cal-phos product -> increased vascular calcification: may contribute to CV mortality • Maintaining optimal balance between treating vitamin D deficiency and preventing extraosseous calcification is challenging • Achieving target phos and cal levels priority over PTH level
Calcium and Phosphorus Management in CKD stage 3, 4 and 5 • goals: serum Ca 8.4 - 9.5 mg/dl serum P 2.7 - 4.5 mg/dl intact PTH ? 35 - 70 pg/ml - stage 3 ? 70 - 110 pg/ml - stage 4 ? 150 - 300 pg/ml – stage 5 • Strategies to maintain normal • reduce dietary phosphorus intake < 1 g/d • use phosphate binders with meals to keep P at goal (Ca CO3, calcium acetate, sevelamer CO3, lanthanum CO3) • Avoid calcium based phos binders if ca-phos product high and/or PTH too low • Replace low Vit D-25 with cholecalciferol • give 1,25 D3 (calcitriol) 0.25-0.5 mcg/d if PTH high (? >2x N) but avoid oversuppression also
Prevalence of types of bone disease as determined by bone biopsy in patients with CKD-MBD AD, adynamic bone; OF, osteitis fibrosa; OM, osteomalacia.
BONE DISEASE DISEASE IN CKD/”RENAL OSTEODYSTROPHY”: MANY FLAVORS • Adynamic bone disease • Low bone turnover/low PTH: common in CKD 5 • Functional hypoparathyroidism may contribute (PTH<100) • E.g. Oversupplementation of vitamin D/calcium • Osteitis fibrosa cystica • High turnover bone disease/high PTH: Subperiosteal bone reabsorption • Asymptomatic if early, bone pain, fractures if advanced • Brown tumors: erosive osteolytic lesions • Tx: vit d analogs, lower serum phos • Osteomalacia • Low bone turnover: hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, aluminum toxicity • Osteoporosis • DXA inaccurate in CKD 3 + because of other bone abnormalities – may be present if fractures plus hx of steroids, vit d deficiency, etc. • Bone biopsy if high suspicion is required prior to starting any therapy • Bisphosphonates may contribute to adynamic bone disease in CKD 4/5

Which is the most likely cause of this patient’s bone disease? • Adynamic bone disease • B2-microglobulin-associated amyoidosis • Osteitis fibrosa cystica • Osteomalacia
Anemia in Renal Disease • Secondary to: • deceased erythropoietin production by kidney • Anemia of kidney disease is usually apparent by CKD 4 • Diagnosis of exclusion • iron deficiency, B12 deficiency, hemolysis • Epo levels NOT recommended
Iron Replacement in CKD • Monitor: serum ferritin, iron saturation (TSAT) • Goal: serum ferritin 100-600 ng/ml, TSAT 20-50% • Oral ferrous sulfate 325 mg 1-3 times/day • – often poorly tolerated or ineffective • intravenous preparations: ferric gluconate • Safety concerns: • infusion reactionsconcurrent active infection
What is the target HGB in Anemia of renal disease? 9-11 g/dL • CHOIR 2006: RCT to Hb 11.3 v 13.5 in 1432 with GFR 15-50 Adverse CV outcomes in 13.5% (Hb 11.3) v 17.5% (Hb 12.6) No change in QOL measures • CREATE 2006: RCT to Hb 10.5-11.5 v 13-15 in 603, GFR 15-35 No difference in time to first CV event (but underpowered) Better QOL (vitality score SF36)in high Hb group • TREAT 2010: RCT in 4000 CKD (GFR 20-60), DM2 , Hb < 11; Intervention: darbepoietin v placebo; Goal: Hb 13 g/dl or rescue if < 9 g/dl; Outcome: all cause mortality, CV morbidity no different but higher rate of stroke and thrombolic events
Erythropoietin (ESAs) use in CKD 3-5 • prior to initiating treatment: control BP (< 160/90 mmHg) ensure adequate B12, Fe (% saturation > 20) • check for treatable inflammation • during ongoing treatment: monitor Hb or HCT every 2-4 weeks monitor Fe saturation, ferritin every 3 months maintain Fe sat 20-50%, ferritin < ? 600 ng/ml keep BP well controlled

Learning Objectives • Identify and categorize CKD ✔ • Perform an appropriate evaluation for underlying causes of CKD ✔ • Identify and modify risk factors for progression of CKD✔ • Understand, monitor for and if possible modify risk for cardiovascular, metabolic and hematological complications of CKD✔ • Renally dose medications • Know when to refer to nephrology • Be able to explain CKD to patients
Avoid nephrotoxic Agents! • NSAIDs and Cox-2 inhibitors • Iodinated Contrast • Magnesium and phosphate containing cathartics • Milk of mag, mag citrate • Discontinue: • Metformin if GFR <50 • Risk of lactic acidosis • Bisphosphonates if GFR <50 • Risk of adynamic bone disease
Other meds May require adjustment • For those with or at risk for CKD: • Avoid glyburide, especially in the elderly (longer half life, more hypoglycemia) • Benadryl has a longer half life, as it is renaly excreted • In gout, treat to a target uric acid level rather than a specific dose reduction of allopurinol – lower uric acid level may also slow risk of progression of CKD, studies underway • Colchicine also renally dosed – relevant if avoiding NSAIDs and prednisone for acute gout tx • Antibiotics, antiepileptics often require renal dosing
