Chronic Renal Insufficiency
? Pathogen and pathogenesis
? Manifestation

? Diagnosis and differential diagnosis
? Treatment
3
Etiology
? primary glomerular diseases
? hypertensive nephrosclerosis
? diabetic nephropathy
? chronic pyelonephritis

4
Pathogenesis
? Mechanism associated with exacerbation of
renal function
? Mechanism associated with uremic symptom
5
Mechanism Associated With Exacerbation
of Renal Function
? Hyperfiltration theory
? Effect of proteinuria
? Trade-off hypothesis in acidosis
? Disturbance of lipid metabolism
? Tubulointerstitial injury
? Renal hypoxia
6
Mechanism Associated With Uremic Symptom
? Uremic toxins
? malnutrition
? trade-off hypothesis
? Endocrine dysfunction
7
Manifestation of the Uremic Syndrome
? Gastrointestinal
? Cardiovascular
? Hematologic
? Pulmonary
? Neurologic
? Dermatologic
? Endocrinologic
? ophthalmic
8
Gastrointestinal Manifestation
? Anorexia progressing to nausea and vomiting
? Stomatitis and gingivitis
? Parotitis
? Peptic ulcer diathesis
? Gastritis,duodenitis and enterocolitis
? Pancreatitis
? Ascites
9
Cardiovascular Manifestation

10
Hematologic Manifestation
? Anemia
? Altered neutrophilic chemotaxis

11
Pulmonary Manifestation

12
Neurologic Manifestation

16
Disturbed Water,Electrolytes and Acid-
base Balance
? Water loss and water intoxication

17
Experimental Test

18
Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis
? Diagnosis of chronic kidney disease
? Etiologic diagnosis
? Differential diagnosis
19
Stages of Renal Insufficiency
stage GFR SCr clinical manifestation
(ml/min) (umol/L)
compensated stage 50— 80 <133 asymptom
azotemia 25---50 <445 nycturia,anemia
renal failure 10---25 <800 nausea,anemia,acidosis
uremia <10 >800 obvious uremic symptom
20
Definition of Chronic Kidney Disease
? Renal injury,>3 months
– Decreased GFR,yes or no
– Renal injury,abnormal experimental tests
? GFR<60ml/min/1.73m2,>3 months
– Renal injury,yes or no
21
Stages of chronic kidney disease
stage description GFR management
0 high risk for CKD >90 find out the risk factors
1 Renal injury,normal GFR >90 diagnosis,treat complications
2 Lightly decreased GFR 60-89 evaluation of progressing
3 Moderately decreased GFR 30-59 treat complications
4 Severely decreased GFR 15-29 ready for renal replacement
5 uremia <15 renal replacement
22
? History
? Physical examination
? Experimental test
? Radiologic and ultrasonographic examination
? Renal biopsy
Etiologic diagnosis
23
Differential diagnosis
? With acute renal failure
– History, long or short
– Changes in urine volume
– Changes in Hb
– Dermatologic manifestation
– Bone disease
– Changes in SCr
– Length of the kidney
24
Treatment
