4. Definition
• Progressive, irreversible loss of
renal function in the presence of
kidney damage resulting in a
decline of GFR < 60 ml/hour for
at least 3 months.
• •Main causes : Diabetes Mellitus
& Hypertension
• •GFR < 15 ml/hour indicates a
late stage and is called ESRD
(CKD STAGE 5)

6. IN the UAE:
-Among Emiratis, 4.6% of males and
2.8% of females
-Among expatriates, 4.2% of males and
3.2% of females

11. CLINICAL FEATURES
• Uremia
• Urinary symptoms : Polyuria, Nocturia, Isosthenuria (Fixed urine SG of 1.010 = RT damage Failure of
concentration) Oliguria Anuria
• Metabolic disturbances due to accumulation if waste products Nausea, vomiting, headache, impaired cognition
• Metabolic acidosis
• Erythropoietin deficiency
• Reduced immunity (Immunosuppression) & altered WBC function Infections, fever; Bleeding tendency due to
reduced Platelet function
• CVS : RAAS activation Hypertension LVH 1. Atrial fibrillation 2. CHF 3. Angina pectoris & AMI; Uremic
pericarditis (Inflammatory)
• Respiratory : Uremic Pleuritis
• GIT : Mousy odour of urea in breath “Uremic fetor”
• CNS: Altered cognition, Seizures, Coma.
• “Renal rickets”
• Peripheral neuropathy : Restless Leg Syndrome
12.
13. What to expect in investigations
• URINE : Low fixed SG 1.010, (1.015 – 1.025) and Proteinuria
• Urine culture (UTI : Immunosuppression, catheter related, related to DM);
• •BLOOD: Low Hb Anemia (Low Erythropoietin) Reduced HCT;
• CXR : Cardiomegaly + Tendency for vascular congestion due to increased capillary
permeability (“Uremic lung”)
• ECG : LVH. Atrial fibrillation, Changes due to high K+, Changes due to low or high calcium
• Ultra sound Abdomen: Bilateral shrunken kidneys.
Unilateral small kidney ??
14. Fluid & Electrolyte disturbances
• Na+ : may ne normal / Low. Na+ retention can lead to H2O retention
Edema, Hypertension, CHF .
• K+ : Hyperkalemia : Most dreaded Fatal arrhythmias.
• PO4 : Initial PO4 retention may result in Hyperphosphatemia
Hypocalcemia
• Ca+ : May be Low (Initial Due to PO4 retention) or High (later due to Hyper
Parathyroidism –Primary / Tertiary
18. HYPERTENSION : Goal BP 130/80 mmHg. Preferred drug ACEI / ARB
•Renal osteodystrophy : Hyperphosphatemia –Restricting PO4 intake to < 1000mg; PO4 binders Calcium
carbonate (Tums)
Vit D supplementation : Calcitriol-Serum PO4 level must be lowered before giving Vit D or Calcium
Controlling Hyper PTH : Cinacalcet
•Anemia : Erythropoietin alpha Scor IV, Iron (if Ferritin < 100 ) Folic acid (if patient is on dialysis –as FA is
removed by dialysis; No role for blood transfusion
19. DRUGSTO AVOID
• Avoid NSAID
• •Be careful with Digitalis
• •Be careful while selecting antibiotics
20.
21. Disequilibrium syndrome
• : Hemodialysis Rapid reduction in Plasma osmolarity +
Comparably less rapid reduction in brain osmolarity -
Cerebral edema Nausea, vomiting, twitching,
convulsions, coma. Usually at the end of first and second
dialysis
22. Research
• Researchers have been working on ways to grow healthy organs outside the human
body.
• Blastocyst complementation, has already produced promising results
• blastocysts, the clusters of cells formed several days after egg fertilization, from mutant animals missing
specific organs and inject them with stem cells from a normal donor, not necessarily of the same species.
• The stem cells then differentiate to form the entire missing organ in the resulting animal.
• The new organ retains the characteristics of the original stem cell donor, and can potentially be used in
transplantation therapy
23. About the Experiment
• Researchers first tried to grow rat kidneys in mice was unsuccessful
• rat stem cells did not differentiate into the two main types of cells needed for kidney
formation.
• When they reversed the scenario
• mouse stem cells differentiated inside rat blastocysts, forming the basic structures of a
kidney.
• After being implanted into pseudo-pregnant rats
• the complemented blastocysts matured into normal fetuses.
• more than two thirds of the resulting rat neonates contained a pair of kidneys derived from
the mouse stem cells.
• Further screening showed that all of the kidneys were structurally intact, and at least half
could potentially produce urine
