General Concept

A rise in serum creatinine of up to 30% of baseline ( given baseline up to 3 mg/dl) that remains stable in the absence of hyperkalemia ([K+] > 6) correlates with slower renal disease progression.

Messages to Take Home

Kidney Disease is a silent killer-(no signs or symptoms until you loose >70% of your kidney function,

The risk of dying from a cardiovascular event, if you’ve lost 50% or more of your kidney function, is similar to that having had a heart attack.

Proteinuria reduction needs to be a key part of blood pressure management.
