17
Q

What is the most common equation to estimate CrCl, what are it variables

A

Cockcroft-Gault equation/ Scr, Age, and weight

18
Q

What is the Cockcroft-Gault equation

A

(140-age)ABW/(Scr x 72)

19
Q

What is the adjustment for the Cockcroft-Gault equation for women

A

(140-age)ABW/(Scr x 72) all multiplied by .85

20
Q

What is the equation for IBW in males

A

50 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5 feet

21
Q

What is the equation for IBW in females

A

45 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5 feet

22
Q

What is the equation for adjusted body weight

A

IBW + 0.4 (actual BW- IBW)

23
Q

When using the Cockcroft-Gault equation what weight should be used if the patient is overweight and/or obese, normal weight, underweight

A

Adjusted body weight, ideal body weight, actual body weight

24
Q

When does the Cockcroft-Gault equation overestimate kidney fucntion

A

Liver disease, renal transplant, and HIV patients

25
Q

T/F: When using the Cockcroft-Gault equation Scr should be used for everyone except the elderly, their Scr should be rounded up to 1

A

False: Rounding Scr up to 1 is not recommended for the elderly

26
Q

What are the variable for the MDRD4 equation

A

weight, age, Scr, Race

27
Q

T/F: MDRD4 is recommonded for estimating GFR in a patient with CKD

A

True

28
Q

T/F: Cockcroft-Gault, MDRD6 and MDRD4 all use SCr so they have their limits

A

True

29
Q

What is an equation that can be used if a patient does not have CKD and is more accurate if they do not have CKD

A

CKD-EPI

30
Q

What GFR would qualify for CKD

A

less than 60 ml/min

31
Q

T/F: eGFR by MDRD is good for drug dosing

A

False: eGFR by MDRD is not recommended to be used for renal dose adjustments, CrCl is

32
Q

What equation is be used to stage CKD

A

MDRD4

33
Q

What factors can cause a decrease in drug absorption that are also present in CKD patients

A

Delayed GI transit time, increased gastric pH, vomitting and diarrhea, drugs used in CKD are susceptible to chelate formation, bowel wall edema

34
Q

What factors can cause an increase in drug absorption that are also present in CKD

A

Magnesium hydroxide and sodium bicarbonate, decreased intestinal metabolism, P-gp reduced drug absorbtion

35
Q

What factors can cause an increase in a drug’s distribution due to CKD

A

less albumin, acidic drugs

36
Q

What factors can cause a decrease in a drug’s distribution due to CKD

A

basic drugs, decreased tissue binding

37
Q

How is metabolism effected in CKD

A

Reduced phase 1, reduced phase 2 and reduced kidney metabolism

38
Q

How is excretion effected in CKD

A

less excretion due to less filtration

39
Q

T/F: Loading doses in patients with CKD should not be altered for any medications

A

False: In most cases, CKD patients should receive normal loading doses except with digoxin (dose lowered)

40
Q

How should the maintenance dose and intervals be adjusted in patients with CKD

A

reduce the maintenance dose and extended intervals
