Perioperative management of the hemodialysis patient.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed the integration of cardiopulmonary exercise testing and cardiovascular optimization into the care of these high-risk patients and provided an overview of the importance of maintaining microvascular perfusion and the role of viscosity in preserving the capillary perfusion network.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteinuria and hypertension with tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

TL;DR: This work reviews the literature for incidence and severity of hypertension and proteinuria among several tyrosine kinase inhibitors, their pathophysiologic mechanisms, and provides a guide for screening and management.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uremic Toxin Clearance and Cardiovascular Toxicities

TL;DR: Levels of each of these potential toxins are even higher in patients on dialysis than in those with advanced chronic kidney disease, which can be accounted for in part by a low ratio of dialytic to native kidney clearance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atrial fibrillation in CKD: balancing the risks and benefits of anticoagulation

TL;DR: There is an urgent need for a better understanding of the complex inter-relationship among CKD, atrial fibrillation, stroke, and bleeding risk to optimize the potential benefits of treatment and minimize the potential harms in this very high-risk and growing population.

K/DOQI clinical practice guidelines for chronic kidney disease: Evaluation, classification, and stratification

TL;DR: In the early 1990s, the National Kidney Foundation (K/DOQI) developed a set of clinical practice guidelines to define chronic kidney disease and to classify stages in the progression of kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease and the risks of death, cardiovascular events, and hospitalization

TL;DR: The longitudinal glomerular filtration rate was estimated among 1,120,295 adults within a large, integrated system of health care delivery in whom serum creatinine had been measured between 1996 and 2000 and who had not undergone dialysis or kidney transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using standardized serum creatinine values in the modification of diet in renal disease study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate.

TL;DR: The MDRD Study equation has now been reexpressed for use with a standardized serum creatinine assay, allowing GFR estimates to be reported in clinical practice by using standardized serumcreatinine and overcoming this limitation to the current use of GFR estimating equations.
