CKD is defined as abnormalities of kidney structure or function, present for >3 months, with implications for health
Markers of kidney damage (one or more)
Decreased GFR
Pathophysiology of CKD
Mechanisms of kidney damage:
1. Initiating mechanism specific to an underlying etiology
2. Set of progressive mechanism
Cockcroft-Gault Formula (Creatinine Clearance)
CrCl (male)= [(140-age) x weight in kg]/ (serum creatine x 72)
CrCl (female)= CrCl (male) x 0.85
Prevention of CKD progression
1. Individualize BP targets and agents according to age, coexistent cardiovascular disease and other comorbidities,
risk of progression of CKD.
2. Inquire about postural dizziness and check for postural hypotension regularly when treating CKD patients with BP-lowering drugs.
3. Tailor BP treatment regimens in elderly patients with CKD by carefully considering age, comorbidities and
other therapies, with gradual escalation of treatment and close attention
4. both diabetic and non-diabetic adults with CKD and with urine albumin excretion of
>/=30 mg/24 hours whose BP is consistently
>140 mm Hg systolic or >90 mm Hg
5. both diabetic and non-diabetic adults with CKD and with urine albumin excretion of
>/=30 mg/24 hours (or equivalent*) whose office BP is consistently
diastolic maintain
6. ARB or ACE-I be used in diabetic adults with CKD and urine albumin excretion 30–300 mg/
24 hours.
7. recommended that an ARB or ACE-I be used in both diabetic and non-diabetic adults with CKD and urine
albumin excretion >/=300 mg/24 hours
8. There is insufficient evidence to recommend combining an ACE-I with ARBs to prevent progression of CKD.
1. lowering protein intake to 0.8 g/kg/day in adults with diabetes or without diabetes and
GFR <30 ml/min/1.73 m2 (G4-G5), with appropriate education.
2. avoiding high protein intake (41.3 g/kg/day) in adults with CKD at risk of progression.
1. a target hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of 7.0% (53 mmol/mol) to prevent or delay progression of the microvascular complications of diabetes, including diabetic kidney disease.
2. not to treat an HbA1c target of <7.0% (<53 mmol/mol) in patients at risk of hypoglycemia.
4. In people with CKD and diabetes, glycemic control should be part of a multifactorial intervention strategy
promoting the use of ACEi or ARBs, statins, and antiplatelet therapy.
lowering salt intake to <90 mmol (<2 g) per day of sodium (corresponding to 5g of sodium chloride) in adults, unless contraindicated.
1. restriction of sodium intake for children with CKD who have hypertension or prehypertension
2. supplemental free water and sodium supplements for children with CKD and polyuria to avoid chronic intravascular depletion and to promote optimal growth.
There is insufficient evidence to support or refute the use of agents to lower serum uric acid concentrations in people with CKD and either symptomatic or asymptomatic hyperuricemia in order to delay progression of CKD.
people with CKD be encouraged to undertake physical activity compatible with cardiovascular health and tolerance (aiming for at least 30 minutes 5 times per week), achieve a healthy weight (BMI 20 to 25), and stop smoking.
individuals with CKD
1. Diagnose anemia in adults and children >15 years with CKD when the Hb concentration is <13.0 g/dl in males and <12.0 g/dl in females.
2. Diagnose anemia in children with CKD if Hb concentration is
To identify anemia in people with CKD measure Hb concentration
1. measure serum levels of calcium, phosphate, PTH, and alkaline phosphatase activity at least
once in adults with GFR <45 (G3b-G5) to determine
2. not to perform bone mineral density testing routinely in those with eGFR <45
(G3b-G5), as information may be misleading or unhelpful.
3. In people with GFR <45 (G3b-G5), we suggest maintaining serum phosphate
concentrations in the normal range.
4. In people with GFR <45 (G3b-G5) the optimal PTH level is not known.
1. not to routinely prescribe vitamin D supplements or vitamin D analogs, in the absence of suspected or
documented deficiency, to suppress elevated PTH concentrations in people with CKD not on dialysis.
2. not to prescribe bisphosphonate treatment in people with GFR <30 (G4-G5) without a strong clinical rationale.
people with CKD and serum bicarbonate concentrations <22 mmol/l treatment with oral
bicarbonate supplementation be given to maintain within the normal range, unless contraindicated.
