CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE

• CKD refer to an irreversible deterioration in renal function


• Usually develops over period if years
Stages of chronic kidney disease
Causes
Physical signs in advanced CKD
INVESTIGATIONS
Proteinuria
• Albumin-to-creatinine ratio(ACR) - >3.0 mg/mmol is diagnostic for
chronic kidney disease, urine testing should be repeated in another 3
months
Creatine clearance/eGFR
• E.g : 56 yo male, 70 kg, serum creatinine- 150

(140-56x70/150) x 1.23 = 48.2


P.S: google gfr calculator
Ultrasound
General indications for renal ultrasound
• rapid deterioration of renal function (loss of eGFR >5 ml/min/1.73 m2
• within one year or 10 ml/min/1.73 m2 within five years)
• haematuria
• symptoms or history of urinary tract obstruction
• family history of polycystic kidney disease and age over 20 years
• when a renal biopsy is indicated
Treatment
• Blood pressure control: ACEi/ARB should be used as first-line agent in
• Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) with albuminuria
• Non-DKD when urinary protein excretion ≥1.0 g/day
• Non-DKD with hypertension when urinary protein excretion ≥0.5 g/ day
• Glycaemic Control:
• The target HbA1c should be ≤7% in diabetic kidney disease but this should be
individualized according to co-morbidities and age
• Protein Restriction:
• Low protein diet (0.6 - 0.8 g/kg/day) with adequate energy intake (30 - 35
kcal/kg/day) may be given in chronic kidney disease stage 3 – 5
• Dietary protein restriction should be supervised by a dietitian.
End Stage Renal Failure
• Irreversible kidney dysfunction
with eGFR < 15 mL/min/1.73
m2 with manifestation of
uremia requiring chronic renal
replacement therapy with
either dialysis or renal
transplantation
