KIDNEY Flashcards
common types of AKI
70% - hypo-perfusion of the kidneys
20% obstruction to urine flow
10% structural damaged due to ischemia, inflammation, toxins, necrosis
CKIDGO criteria for AKI
increased SCR >/ 26.5 mmol/L within 48 hrs or increased SCr >/1.5x baseline known/presumed to have occurred within prior 7days or
Urine volume < 0.5mL/kg/hr for 6 hrs
treatment for hyperkalemia
calcium gluconate, sodium bicarbonate, insulin, salbutamol, furosemide, sodium poystyrene sulfonate (exchanges sodium ions for potassium in intestinal cell) dialysis
know cockroft gault equation
CKIDGO definition of CKD
GFR <60 ml/min for>/3 months with or without signs of kidney damage
OR
presence of markers of kidney damage for >/3 months with or without decreased gfr
what factors doe KDIGO used to stage CKD
GFR and albuminuria
what stage is considered dialysis
G5
<15ml/min GFR
know staging of CKD
G1: >/ 90 GFR G2: 60-90 G3a and G3b: 30-59 G4: 15-29 G5: <15 or dialysis
which drug to use for albuminuria or proteinuria
ACEI or ARB
complications of CKD that we need to treat
anemia
hyperphosphatemia
secondary hyperparathyroidism ( HPT)
BP goal for CKD?
individualized.
<130/80 (BP)
<120 IF meets SPRINT criteria
SPRINT ( >50 years of age, elevated cardiovascular risk without diabetes
list the phosphate binder options
1st choice: calcium carbonate
2nd: lanthanum, sevelamer
which phosphate binder is preferred in stage 5 CKD
sevelamer
treatment for metabolic acidosis
sodium bicarb
important counselling points for calcium carb
Oral iron salts, fluoroquinolones, tetracyclines and levothyroxine: absorption reduced. Give 2 h before or 4 h after calcium.
