Three major goals need to be addressed in the treatment of patients with chronic kidney disease: (1) progression of renal function loss needs to be inhibited by treatment of risk factors, (2) co-morbidities and vascular risk factors have to be treated, and (3) the patient must be educated about and prepared for renal replacement therapy. During the progressive loss of renal function, the treatment necessities and medication doses need to be adjusted. Therefore, the treatment of heart disease differs between patients with normal and decreased renal function.

This chapter describes the anaesthetic management of the patient with renal disease. The topics include estimation of renal function, chronic kidney disease, renal replacement therapy (including haemodialysis), acute renal failure, and the patient with a transplanted kidney. For each topic, preoperative investigation and optimization, treatment, and anaesthetic management are described. The effects of impaired renal function on the elimination of anaesthetic drugs are discussed.

Star fruit toxicity has been hugely described in patients with chronic kidney disease, either on conservative or renal replacement therapy. This is a case report of a man, without prior kidney or neurological dysfunction, who appeared to develop nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity less than 12 hours after drinking concentrated star fruit juice (approximately 20 units of the fruit). He received timely renal replacement therapy and renal function fully recovered after discharge.

Peritonitis is one of the most common complications of the population with chronic kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis. The most frequent etiological agents are bacteria and fungi, the latter being responsible for 2 to 5% of the total cases of this type of infection. Fungal peritonitis is severe and its occurrence requires immediate removal of the catheter and transfer of renal replacement therapy for hemodialysis. The present study aimed to retrospectively study the risk factors and clinical outcomes of patients at the Centro Integrado de Nefrologia (CIN) of the Hospital das Clínicas da UNICAMP, who presented bacterial or fungal peritonitis, comparing them to peritoneal dialysis patients who did not present peritonitis.

This chapter describes the anaesthetic management of the patient with renal disease. The topics include estimation of renal function; chronic kidney disease; renal replacement therapy (including haemodialysis); acute renal failure, and the patient with a transplanted kidney. For each topic, pre-operative investigation and optimisation, treatment, and anaesthetic management are described. The effects of impaired renal function on the elimination of anaesthetic drugs are discussed.

Currently, more than two million people receive renal replacement therapy worldwide, but it is estimated that this is only 10% of patients in need. From this point of view, it is extremely important to increase caution about identifying risk factors and causes of chronic kidney disease in order to prevent it in a timely manner at the primary level. In Azerbaijan, an increase in patients on hemodialysis in dynamics was revealed. At the same time, both the number of hemodialysis centers and devices for hemodialysis increases. The number of dialysis machines from 2014 to 2019 tended to increase by +15.8% in 2015, +16.9% in 2016, +13.0% in 2017, +1.7% in 2018, +3.3% in 2019. The provision of patients with hemodialysis devices increased from 0.4 in 2014 to 0.7 per 10 thousand of the population in 2019. The positive trend in dialysis sessions received by patients in the republic was +16.7% in 2017, +12.1% in 2016, +5.4% in 2015, +1.3% in 2018, +0.3% in 2019. In the Javad-zade Republican Clinical Urological Hospital, an increase in dialysis sessions was noted in 2016 (+9.4%), 2016 (+9.4%) and 2017 (+5.2%). Identification of possible effects of risk factors for chronic kidney disease showed that in men, polycystic kidney disease had a statistically significant effect (RR=1.470, 95% CI 1.007–2.146), and in women, obesity (RR=3.366, 95% CI 2.286–4.954), iron deficiency anemia (RR=2.859, 95% CI 2,516–3,249). It is necessary to guarantee state financial support for renal replacement therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease, as well as state support for the development of dialysis centers.
