Transcript 19. Nutrition for Diseases of the Kidney

Nutrition
for Diseases
of the Kidney
Functions of the Kidney
Excretion of metabolic waste through urine
Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis
Acid/base balance
Maintenance of bone health
– Activation of vitamin D
– Calcium/phosphorus homeostasis
Blood Pressure Regulation
– Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone
Stimulate red blood cell production
– Erythropoietin
Consequences of Kidney Disease
Decreased excretion of nutrients/waste
Abnormal calcium/phosphorus
metabolism leading to bone disease
Weight loss and malnutrition
Fluid and electrolyte imbalances
Cardiovascular disease and mortality
Uremic Syndrome
Nausea
Vomiting
Metallic taste
Itching
Lack of energy
Protein-energy wasting syndrome
Kidney Int. 2008;73(4):391-398
Goals of CKD Management
 Achieve/maintain optimal nutritional status
 Prevent protein energy malnutrition
 Slow the rate of disease progression
 Prevention/treatment of complications and
other medical conditions
DM
HTN
Dyslipidemias and CVD
Anemia
Metabolic acidosis
Secondary hyperparathyroidism
Evidenced based clinical practice guidelines
– For all stages of kidney disease
– For related complications
Glomerular Filtration Rate
GFR = (140-age) X body weight (kg) X 0.85 if female
[72 X serum creatinine (mg/dL)]
GFR of 100 approximates 100% kidney fxn
Normal GFR = 120 to 130 mL/min
Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease
Stage 1
CVD risk reduction
Treat co-morbidities
GFR > 90 ml/min
Stage 2
Monitor progression
GFR = 60-89 ml/min
Stage 3
Evaluate
Test complications
Preparation for renal
replacement therapy
Renal replacement
therapy (RRT)
GFR = 30-59 ml/min
Stage 4
Stage 5
GFR = 15-29 ml/min
GFR < 15ml/min
or on dialysis
Deterioration of Nutritional Status Begins Early
 GFR 28 – 35 mL/min or greater
 Protein Energy Malnutrition (PEM) is often present at
the time patients begin dialysis.
 Malnutrition in pts beginning dialysis is a strong
predictor of poor clinical outcome
Medical Nutrition Therapy
Recommendations (Stages 3 to 5)
Calories
30-35 kcals/kg IBW
Protein
0.6-0.8 gm/kg IBW
Sodium
1000-4000mg
Fluids

Calcium
<2000mg
Phosphorus
800-1000 mg
Vitamins
Individualized
Optimal Nutritional Status
 Albumin > 4.0
 Stable, desirable dry weight
 Adequate fat stores and muscle mass
 Appropriate appetite and intake
Reverse epidemiology of obesity in dialysis
patients compared with the general population

TEST
K/DOQI Goal
Hgb
11 to 12 mg/dL
Iron SAT > 20%
Ferritin

Hct can be falsely low
due to fluid overload
Monthly test
Reflects tissue iron
stores
Low Albumin
 Non-nutritional factors
 Infection
 Inflammation
 Co-morbidities
 Fluid overload
 Inadequate dialysis
 Blood loss
 Metabolic acidosis
Calories
Recommended energy intake = 30 to 35 day
kcals/kg
Spares body protein
Maintains neutral nitrogen balance
Promotes higher serum albumin levels
Challenges
Decreased appetite from uremia
Various CKD dietary restrictions
Finding food sources for added calories
Dietary Protein Restriction…
Reduces nitrogenous waste
Reduces inorganic ions
Reduces metabolic/ clinical disturbance
(uremia)
Slows rate of decline in GFR
K/DOQI protein guidelines
(Average American Intake = 1.2 g per kg/day)
0.75 grams per kg/day for CKD stages 1 thru 3
0.6 grams per kg/day for CKD stages 4, 5
50% of the dietary protein should be HBV
– HBV protein produces less nitrogenous waste
45 to 60 grams protein per day
No Protein Restriction for Dialysis Patients
1.2 g per kg/day hemodialysis
– 10-12 grams lost per HD treatment
1.3 g per kg/day peritoneal dialysis
– 5-15 grams lost per PD treatment

Nutritional Interventions
Encourage patients to eat
– Adjust or liberalize diet as appropriate
– Frequent small meals/snacks
High protein foods first if they get full
quickly
Calorie dense foods
Consider use of nutritional supplements
Supplements
Protein Powder
– Procel, Egg/Pro
Liquid Protein
– Pro-Stat, ProSource, Liquicel
Liquid Nutritional
– Ensure, Boost, Enlive
Calorie Dense
– Ensure Plus, Boost Plus
Renal Specific
– Nepro with Carb Steady, Re/Gen
– Novasource Renal, NutriRenal
Sodium
Dietary sodium restriction prevents:
– Excessive thirst
– Edema
– Hypertension
– CHF
Sodium restriction = 2000 mg/day
– Range from 1000mg to 4000mg
– Varies depending on co-morbidities
– More liberal sodium with frequent dialysis
Sodium excretion falls at GFR < 20mL/min
Sources of dietary sodium
Pre-prepared foods
Processed foods
Canned, bottled, packaged foods.
1 tsp salt = 2,300 mg sodium
2 gram Sodium Diet…
Fresh foods
Limit
– Cured/pickled foods
– Processed
– Can/bottled/packaged
– Instant cereals, mixes
Avoid salt substitutes (potassium chloride)
Flavor foods with spices, vinegar, lemon
juice, pepper
Potassium
Potassium Restriction Indications

Altered Bone Turnover in CKD
Kidney Failure leads to…

Low serum calcium
Phosphorus retention
Elevated PTH
Secondary Hyperparathyroidism
Mineral and Bone Disorder
Prevalence of Abnormal Mineral Metabolism in CKD
>4.6
KI (2007) 71, 31-38. Levin et. al.
Phosphorus
 High serum phosphorus
 Bone decalcification
 Soft tissue calcifications
 Hyperparathyroidism
 Phosphorus restriction for GFR < 25mL/min
 Normal dietary phosphorus = 1000 to 1800 mg/day
 Dietary restriction = 560 to 850 mg/day
 Phosphate binders:
 Bind phosphorus in the GI tract
Must take with meals
 Phoslo (calcium containing)
 Renvela (Sevelamer) (calcium free)
 Fosrenol (chewable)

Calcium in CKD
Maintain serum calcium 8.4 – 10.2 mg/dL
Optimal < 9.6 mg/dL
Dietary Calcium
1200 – 1500 mg/day (stages 3 and 4)
Calcimimetics: A new family of drugs
(Sensipar)
Binds to calcium receptor
Decreases PTH
Active orally
Advantageous: Suppression of PTH
without risk of hypercalcemia or
hyperphosphatemia
FDA approved
Fluid Restriction
CKD Stage 4 or 5
Fluid: “any food that is liquid at room temp”
Soup, gelatin, ice cream, popsicles
Excess fluid buildup
– Edema, SOB, HTN, CHF
– Delays wound healing
Fluid restriction estimations are based upon
– Urinary output
– Disease state
– Treatment modality (dialysis, etc.)
Fluid Allowance Tips
Approx 48oz/day
Pre-measure mealtime liquids
Drink very hot or very cold
beverages
Drinking from smaller cups
Use spray bottle to mist mouth
Freeze juice in ice cube tray
and eat like popsicles
Vitamin & Mineral Supplements
Dietary restrictions result in a diet deficient in nutrients
Vitamin C 90 mg/day
Over 75% of kidney disease patients have
increased homocysteine levels.
– Folic acid 1 mg/day
– B6 5 mg/day
No Vitamin A due to its accumulation in CKD
Vitamin D in its active form
1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol
[1,25 (0H2)D3]
Procrit and iron supplementation
Suggestion: Nephrocaps
Herbal Supplements
Use may be unsafe for CKD patients
– Poor clearance
– Purity, safety, effectiveness unknown
– No regulation, no testing requirements
– Subject to contamination
Lead
mercury
Herbs can interact with medications
– Renal patients take > 10 meds/day
Renal toxicity
– Wormwood
– Horse chestnut
– Sassafras
Herbs with diuretic properties that
may cause renal inflammation
 Bucha leaves
 Juniper berries
 Uva ursi
 Parsley capsules
