Why is volume so unstableand what can we do about it?
• Diet? Na+ restriction/dietary routine• Ischemia? Cardiac optimization• A Fib? Rate control• NSAIDs/COX-2 inhibitors Avoid• Other Na+ retaining meds – steroids, glitazones• Dehydration? Sick Day Med Advice• Cardiac Output variation with volume status• Diuretic resistance

Sick Day Medication Advice
• Pre-emptive temporary withdrawal of certain medications during period of dehydrating illness
• Diarrhea, vomiting, poor intake • Excessive heat exposure, bowel prep, high
output ostomy• Instruct patients to stop ACE, ARBs, diuretics,
NSAIDs and NSAID creams to avert renal failure, hypotension, hyperK+
• Can resume usual meds when better

Cardiac function and Volume
• Changes in volume status can result in marked changes in cardiac output
• Reduction in cardiac output leads to heart failure and renal dysfunction
• In decompensated heart failure patient renal function may improve with diuresis

Adaptation
• Longstanding furosemide use can result in hypertrophy of distal tubular cells
• Compensatory Na+ reabsorption occurs to counter diuretic effect of loop
• Thiazide diuretics effective either as permanent fixture of rescue therapy

Diabeto-renal concepts
• Sliding scale– Strategy of prescribed proportional dosage
adjustments to provide acute correctional action
• Target Weight– Use of a set weight as a surrogate for optimal
body volume status
![Page 41: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Diuretic sliding scale
• Escalating or declining loop diuretic dose dictated by daily weight
• Can incorporate thiazide diuretic as maintenance or rescue to counter adaptation
• Can incorporate potassium supplement to compensate for increased potassium losses
• Patient feedback and self management
![Page 42: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Diuretic Sliding Scale
• Patient should weigh self daily, record weight and follow scale instructions
• Once established need regular follow-up• Volume check to adjust target weight
– Lean weight changes, constipation, amputation, hardware
• Reassessment of diuretic response/threshold
“When you take your water pill(s), do you pee soon after?”
![Page 46: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Vasodilatory – Worse after prolonged
upright posture– Better after prolonged
supine– Worse with hot
weather– Venous insufficiency– Absence of other risks
or signs of volume excess
Intravascular Expansion– Sustained, not
intermittent– Wt gain, SOB,
orthopnea– History of cardiac
disease, high Na+ intake,
– Renal insufficiency– JVD, creps, wheeze,
effusions

Potassium
• Disorders of potassium common in CKD and DM
• Like glucose and volume, various factors can drive potassium up or down
• Vigilance for these factors, frequent checking and early corrective action can improve K+ management

K+ Management Tips
• Combining K+ sparing with K+ wasting agents can aid in K+ balance
• Check K+ 2-3 weeks after change in medication that can affect K+ handling ACE/ARB, diuretic, NSAID, Sulfa
• Check K+ with worsening overload or dehydrating illness
• Instruct patients on dietary K+

K+ Management Tips
• Replacement requires 80 – 100 mEq to correct serum potassium by 1 mmol/L in average sized person
• Kayexalate: – 30 gm po will reduce serum K+ by about 0.3
mmol/L– Excessive dose can cause hypoMg++,
hypoCa++, constipation– Use may be limited by sodium load

Hyperuricemia
Urate 680
No history of gout or stones
![Page 54: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Hyperuricemia
• Common in – Metabolic syndrome– Heart failure – Renal insufficiency– Alcohol use– Diuretic use
• Causes gout, uric acid kidney stones, urate nephropathy
• Associations with hypertension, LVH, renal decline in CKD, CV events, but treatment of assymptomatic hyperuricemia not indicated
![Page 55: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Uric Acid/Gout
• Anti-inflammatory treatment of acute gout– NSAID
– Volume retention, renal dysfunction, peptic ulceration, hypertension, increased CV risk
– Colchicine– Diarrhea, sensimotor neuromyopathy, myelosuppression
– Corticosteroids– Volume retention, hyperglycemia, thrush, peptic ulceration
– Weight gain, sleep disturbance
– AVN Hip, osteoporosis, cataracts

Uric Acid/Gout
• Anti-inflammatory treatment of acute gout– NSAID
– Consider holding ACE/ARB during course– Monitor volume and renal function closely– Consider PPI
– Colchicine– Give trial supply and plan B
– Corticosteroids– Watch volume and glycemia– Quick taper to low dose– Consider PPI
![Page 57: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Reducing Hyperuricemia
• Reduce diuretics, especially thiazides
• Consider once daily or alternate day loop diuretic dose
• Low purine diet
• Weight loss/exercise
• Consider switching ACE/ARB to Losartan
![Page 58: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Urate Lowering Therapy
• Allopurinol – Dose 50 - 300 mg daily in CKD– Can cause rash, pruritis, elevated LFTs,
hypersensitivity reaction
• Febuxostat– For use if intolerant to Allopurinol
• Probenecid– Uricosuric, use only with eGFR > 50
![Page 59: Managing complications of therapy in CKD Dr. Vincent Cheung The Diabetes and Nephrology Symposium November 19 th, 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d6e5503460f94a4ea05/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Urate Lowering Therapy
• Start 1-2 weeks after acute attack settled with anti-inflammatory therapy
• Aim for uric acid level 360• Continued anti-inflammatory prophylaxis for
6 – 9 months recommended to avert flare• Continue ULT indefinitely

Summary
Multiple factors in diabetorenocardiopath patients conspire to cause instability in volume and potassium status.
Strategies to monitor, anticipate and rapidly correct perturbations can help maintain stability
Patient self management contributes to optimization in these complex patients
