CKD - MBD Flashcards
What does stimulation of the PTH gland do?
Increases serum calcium and phosphorus
What causes MBD in CKD
secondary hyperparathyroidism
Hyperparathyroidism directly leads to what
phosphate retention
decreased vitamin D activation
Phosphate retention and decreased Vit D activation lead to what?
Hypocalcemia
True or False
As GFR declines, CKD-MBD worsens
True
Clinical Presentation pf CKD-MBD
Usually asymptomatic so monitor labs
Consequences are significant when severe/uncontrolled
When should you monitor Calcium and Phosphorus
CKD Stage 3 - Every 6 - 12 months
CKD Stage 4 - Every 3 - 6 months
CKD Stage 5 - every 1 - 3 months
***Calcium with ALbumin
When should you monitor iPTH
CKD Stage 3 - every 12 months
CKD Stage 4 - every 3 - 12 months
CKD Stage 5 - every 3 - 6 months
When should you monitor 25-OH Vitamin D
at baseline
What is alkaline phosphatase/Bone -specific
(ALP/BALP)?
Bone specific ALP; reflects biosynthetic activity of osteoblasts
Equation for Corrected Calcium
= Measured Ca + 0.8(4- albumin)
Calcium normal range
8.5 - 10.2
Consequences of CKD-MBD
- Bone disease
- CV disease (#1 cause of ESRD death)
- Calciphylaxis (CUA)
Consequences of secondary hyperparathyroidism
- ESA resistance
- Left ventricular hypertrophy
- Parathyroid Hyperplasia
- Myocardial fibrosis
- Immune dysfunction
- Lipid metabolism (HyperTG)
- Renal Osteodystrophy
What happens if you undertreat HyperPTH
Ostetitis fibrosa
What happens if you overtreat HyperPTH
Adynamic bone disease
Osteomalacia
Goals of CKD-MBD Treatment
- Prevent cardio/extravascular calcification
- Prevent development of HyperPTH and Renal Osteodystrophy
- Maintain critical biochemical parameters in range (Calcium, Phosphorus, iPTH)
- Prevent mortality
General Approach to CKD-MBD Treatment
1st step: Phosphate Binders (w/dietary control)
2nd step: Activated Vitamin D
3rd step: Calcimimetics
How to give phosphate binders
Check serum Calcium
Low serum Ca, give what phosphate binder?
Calcium based phosphate binder
Normal serum Ca, give what phosphate binder
Non-Ca based phosphate binder
High serum Ca, give what phosphate binder?
Non- Ca based phosphate binder
What are your calcium based phosphate binders?
Calcium carbonate
Calcium acetate
Calcium acetate specifications
Expensive
Only available Rx
Less Ca
