Q

Why does anemia develop in CKD?

A
  • reduced erythropoeitin production
  • toxin build up in blood cuts RBC lifespan from 120 to 60 days
  • folate and B12 deficiency
  • iron deficiency

22
Q

Whats is one reason for hypo responsiveness of ESA’s?

A

low iron! check iron

23
Q

How does PTH regulate Ca and Phosphorus?

A

increases Ca and decreases Phosphorus

24
Q

How does vitamin D regulate Ca and Phosphorus?

A

both increased in serum

25
Q

30
Q

Name 2 other elemental binders?

A

Lathanum carbonate

Aluminum hydroxide

31
Q

What is MOA of calcium based phosphorus binders?

A

binds phosphorus to form insoluable ca-phos complexes that are excreted in feces

32
Q

What are ADE of calcium based phosphorus binders?

A

milk-alkali syndrome: HA, nausea, renal impairment
hypercalcemia
Hypophosphatemia

33
Q

What is MOA of resin binder Sevelamer Hydrochloride?

T/F Sevelamer hydrochloride lowers LDL

A

TRUE

35
Q

dyspepsia!, N/V/D

36
Q

When and how should you take sevelamer hydrochloride?

A

with food

when at risk for extraskeletal calcium calcification

37
Q

What is MOA of lathanum carbonate binder?

A

binds dietary phosphate and forms insoluble Lathanum phosphorus complexes with a net decrease in calcium and phosphorus
