ACE
ARB
NSAIDS

31
Q

What is pathogenesis of ACE and ARBS?

32
Q

What is the clinical presentation ACE and ARB toxicity? (5)

RASSO mnemonic

A
  • oliguria
  • acutely reduced GFR
  • Scr rise by 30%
  • stabilizes in 1 -2 weeks
  • reversible upon stopping
33
Q

What are risk factors for ACE and ARB’s?

A
  • volume depletion

- patients dependent on renal vasoconstriction to maintain renal blood flow (renal artery stenosis)

Q

How do you prevent ACE ARB toxicity in at risk patients?

A

-use Captopril, enapiril, lisinopril, shorter acting agent in at risk patients

35
Q

How do you manage ACE and ARB toxicity? (3)

A

stop if Srcr increases 30% above baseline over 1- 2 weeks

  • Scr and hyperkalemia will resolve in several days
  • can use again once you correct volume depletion
