Glomerular Filtration

Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR): 90-130 ml/min

Creatinine Clearance

Equation to estimate Creatinine Clearance (CrCl) eGFR

• If 24 hr urine can be collected:

CrCl = (Vu x Ucr ) / Pcr

• If no urinary data available (only serum creatinine is available):Cockroft-Gault (0.85 for women)

eGFR = 0.85 * ( Wt x [140-age] ) / Pcr x 72

• Other equations: MDRD

eGFR = 170 * Pcr-0.999 * age-0.176 * sex * race * BUN-0.170 *albumin0.318

– Pathological abnormalities; or

– Markers of kidney damage, includingabnormalities in the composition of the blood or urine, or abnormalities in imaging tests

• Estimating GFR based on filtration markers such as serum• creatinine or cystatin C concentration should serve as a screening tool

and should be interpreted conservatively to avoid labeling healthy individuals with the diagnosis of CKD stage 3 before timed-urine collection or other tests are assessed carefully.

• Although use of the CKD-EPI equation may mitigate this problem, and this equation should now replace the MDRD equation, the search for better filtration markers and estimated GFR equations continues. In the interim, a wiser cutoff level at which patients should be warned about possible kidney disease, such as an estimated GFR lower than 45 mL/min/1.73m2 by the CKD-EPI equation, would be prudent.

Cystatin C(0.53-0.95 mg/dL)

• Nonglycosylated, low molecular mass (13 kDa) protein produced by all nucleated cells.

• Its low molecular mass & its high isoeletric point (pI) allow it to be freely filtered by the glomeruli.

• Serum concentration of cystatin C correlates with GFR.

• Serum levels of cystatin C are independent of weight and height, muscle mass, age (>1 yr.) or sex, making GFR estimates much less variable than those with creatinine.

• Measurements can be made and interpreted from a single random sample.

COST! (but much less expensive in recent years)More data is still needed re inflammation, thyroid

disease, HIV, etc)? Few reports suggested that cystatin C is affected

by: changes in thyroid function Inflammation (CRP) corticosteroids active HIV infection Certain malignancies?

Inker … Levey, NEJM 2012

BETTER than either of them? Combine both!

The combined creatinine–cystatin C equation performed better than equations based on either of these markers alone and may be useful as a confirmatory test for CKD.

Recommendations for BP and RAS Management in CKD

BP = blood pressure; RAS = renin angiotensin system; CCB = calcium channel blocker; BB = -blocker; JNC 7 = The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure.ADA. Diabetes Care. 2005;28(suppl 1); Chobanian et al. JAMA. 2003;289:2560-2572; Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiatives (K/DOQI). Am J Kidney Dis. 2004;43(5 suppl 1):S1-S290.

PatientGroup

Goal BP(mm Hg) First Line Adjunctive

+ Diabetes <130/80 ACE-I or ARB Diuretics then CCB or BB

Diabetes + Proteinuria <130/80 ACE-I or ARB Diuretics then CCB or BB

Diabetes Proteinuria <130/80

No specific preference:

Diuretics then ACE-I, ARB, CCB, or BB

EXPECT TO NEED TO USE 3+ AGENTS TO ACHIEVE GOALSRecommendations largely consistent across JNC 7, ADA, and K/DOQI

Q13

JNC8 JAMA 2014

There is strong evidence to support treating HTN in persons >60 years to a BP

goal <150/90 mmHg and persons 30-59 years to a diastolic goal <90 mmHg

There is insufficient evidence in <60 years for a systolic goal, or in <30 years for a diastolic goal, so the panel recommends BP <140/90 based on expert opinion.

What is the best BP target in NDD-CKD pts?

Should sBP <120 mmHg be targeted in CKD?

Historical Background:In 1972 the US Congress extended Medicarecoverage to all persons under age 65 suffering from ESRD (End-Stage Renal Disease), i.e. individuals who cannot survive without kidney dialysis treatment, to cover all costs related to their dialysis Rx.

The intent of this law (PL 92-603, the Social Security Amendments of 1972) was to allow allAmericans access to an emerging and very expensive technology, regardless of their ability to pay.

The effectiveness of the ESRD program:

No Kidney Function = No Life Dialysis = Life (?)

550,000 Dialysis Patients in the USA

Fast growing population: ESRDAnd 120,000 new dialysis patients are added each year

Conclusions• Low GFR and proteinuria are independent risk factors for

development of CVD. Patients with CKD are likely to die from CVD

• Low protien-, low salt diet may help slow progression of CKD and improve proeinuria.

• BP control is important but too low BP values (sBP<100) in patients with established CKD should be avoided as hypotension may be assocaitated with worse CKD outcomes.

• There is a recent trend towards more conservative management of advanced CKD and later transition to dialysis esp. among the very old patients and multi-morbid patientsDO N
