mineral bone disease Flashcards
What are the mechanisms that potentiate hyperparathyroidism in CKD?
- Phosphate retention
- Hypocalcemia
- Decreased production of 1,25-dihydroxyvitaminD3 -> also leads to hypocalcemia
Monitoring parameters for CKD-MBD
Calcium and Phosphorous, iPTH, and 25-OH Vitamin D
Corrected calcium equation
measured calcium + 0.8(4 - albumin)
CKD Stage 3 Monitoring Parameters
Calcium and Phos: Q6-12 months
iPTH: Q12 months
25-OH Vitamin D: at baseline
CKD Stage 4 Monitoring Parameters
Calcium and Phos: Q3-6 months
iPTH: Q3-12 months
CKD Stage 5 Monitoring Parameters
Calcium and Phos: Q1-3 months
iPTH: Q3-6 months
what are some consequences of CKD-MBD?
- CV Disease
- Bone Disease
- Calciphylaxis (CUA)
CUA = calcific uremic arteriolopathy ~ extravascular calcification
types of renal osteodystrophy (2)
- adynamic bone osteomalacia
- ostetis fibrosa
adynamic bone osteomalacia vs. ostetis fibrosa
adynamic bone osteomalacia = over-treated hyperparathyroidism -> low bone turnover
ostetis fibrosa = under-treated hyperparathyroidism -> high bone turnover
goals of treatment of CKD-MBD (4)
- prevent consequences of cardiovascular and extravascular calcification
- prevent the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism and renal osteodystrophy
- maintain critical biochemical parameters (Ca, Phos, and iPTH) within target ranges
- Prevent mortality (NONE decrease mortality)
General Approach to Pharmacologic Treatment of CKD-MBD
First line: Phosphate binders
Second line: Activated Vitamin D (or calcimimetic)
Third line: Calcimimetic (or activated vitamin D - whichever one you didn’t choose for 2)
how do phosphate binders help treat CKD-MBD?
they help prevent the initial pathologic mechanism of phosphate retention by binding phosphate in the diet and preventing absorption!
Phosphate Pyramid
Dark sodas (lots of phosphate)
Egg white, fruits and veggies, protein-free products (less phosphate)
If corrected calcium is LOW, what phosphate binder do you use…?
Calcium based binder:
Less Ca2+ More $ = Calcium acetate (PhosLo)
More Ca2+ Less $ = Calcium carbonate
Calcium based binder effects
increases serum Ca2+ and decreases serum phosphate concentration
Calcium acetate
Calcium based phosphate binder
PhosLo
25% elemental Ca2+
Less Ca2+ and More $
Rx only
2x phosphate binding capacity vs. carbonate
Calcium carbonate
Calcium based phosphate binder
40% elemental Ca2+
-> MORE risk of hypercalcemia
More Ca2+ and Less $
OTC
*requires acidic pH for phosphate binding
If corrected calcium is NORMAL-HIGH, what phosphate binder do you use…?
Non-Calcium based binder
First line: Sevelamer
Lanthanum carbonate (chewable)
Ferric citrate (iron deficiency anemia)
Sucroferric oxyhydroxide (lowers pill burden)
Sevelamer dosing
based on serum phospahte (higher = more drug)
5.5-7.5 mg/dL: 800 mg PO TID
7.5-9 mg/dL: 1200-1600 mg PO TID
> 9 mg/dL: 1600 mg PO TID
Sevelamer
Non-calcium based phosphate binder
Renvela
1st line!
also helps to decrease LDL and increase HDL
Sevelamer DDIs
take other meds 1 hour before or 3 hours after taking sevelamer
adverse effects of Sevelamer
Gi upset, DIARRHEA
Lanthanum carbonate
Non-calcium based phosphate binder
Fosrenol
Chewable!
