Elshahat saad abd dayem, 44ys old male patient, from Rashid, smoker, not married

A CRF patient on HD since 15ys15ys Complaining of :

Generalized Bony aches since 5ys5ys

Bilateral shoulder, hip pain since 3ys3ys

Low back pain since 3ys3ys

20 years ago patient presented by generalized oedema, HTN

Investigations revealed nephrotic range proteinuria and renal impairment, Renal biopsy was done and revealed MPGN , lab investigations revealed no secondary cause and patient diagnosed as primary MPGNprimary MPGN

Treatment started in the form of corticosteroidscorticosteroids and cyclophosphamidecyclophosphamide pulse for 3m, then patient lost follow up

5 years later, patient developed ESRD and started HD HD 3 times per week, 4hrs a session, QB 300-350 ml/min

Patient was compliant and did not miss HD sessions with Kt/V > 1.2Kt/V > 1.2

5ys ago patient started to complain of gradual onset of generalized bony aches moderatemoderate in intensity with fairfair response to analgesia

No history of pruritus, muscle weakness

Patient was conscious, alert, average Wt and Ht

Patient was vitally stable

No signs of volume overload

No signs of CTS

For dialysis patients, we suggest the following For dialysis patients, we suggest the following target goals: target goals:

Serum levels of phosphatephosphate should be maintained between 3.5 and 5.5 mg/dL

Serum levels of corrected total calcium corrected total calcium should be maintained between 8.4 and 9.5 mg/dL

Intact PTH Intact PTH (second generation PTH assay) should be maintained between 150 to 300 pg/mL

A) A) Correction of Correction of serum phosphorusserum phosphorus

“Moderate Ph restriction is recommended Moderate Ph restriction is recommended provided that this can be done without provided that this can be done without

compromising nutritional state”compromising nutritional state”

products, certain vegetables, processed food and cola)

If Ca < 8.4 mg/dlIf Ca < 8.4 mg/dlgive 1-2 gm elemenlal Ca (Ca carbonate

contain 40% elemental Ca)

If Ca is in the target range If Ca is in the target range give 1 tablet of calcium carbonate 500

mg daily or eod

If calcium level > 9.5 mg/dl If calcium level > 9.5 mg/dl

1.Stop Ca carbonate and acetate

2.Reduce or Stop Vit D

another vitamin D sterol be reduced or stopped (1B).”

C) C) Correction of Correction of PTHPTH

Consider possibility of DRA in HD patients with intractable musculoskeletal pain, particularly if improvement is not matching with control of hyperparathyroid BMD

Online HDF is a promising approach to reduce Beta 2 microglobulin and improve features of DRA [[Role of dialysis technology Role of dialysis technology in removal of uraemic toxins. Hemodial Int in removal of uraemic toxins. Hemodial Int 2011;15: S49- 532011;15: S49- 53]]
