Scott PY - 2020 T2 - McGraw Hill’s NAPLEX® Review Guide, 4e AB - Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive disease staged on the patient's glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and presence of albuminuria. The National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) and the global non-profit foundation, Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO), define CKD as: (1) pathological abnormalities or markers of kidney damage such as proteinuria present for 3 months or more with or without a decreased GFR, or (2) a GFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for 3 months or more. Staging of CKD identifies patients at higher risk of worsening clinical manifestations and disease complications. Stages are determined by GFR and albuminuria categories. See Table 35-1 for CKD staged by GFR. Albuminuria is categorized as A1, A2, or A3 by urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) as mg/g or urinary albumin excretion rate (AER) as mg/24 hour.
