30% kidney function refers to that you already at stage 4 kidney failure.
What is the life expectancy for patients with stage 4 kidney failure. This
article will explain it in details.
The presence of CKD confers a markedly increased risk of cardiovascular
disease, and people with CKD often have other risk factors for heart disease,
such as high blood lipids. The most common cause of death in people with CKD is
cardiovascular disease rather than renal failure. Aggressive treatment of
hyperlipidemia is warranted.
Apart from controlling other risk factors, the goal of therapy is to slow
down or halt the progression of CKD to stage 5. Control of blood pressure and
treatment of the original disease, whenever feasible, are the broad principles
of management. Generally, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or
angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs) are used, as they have been found to
slow the progression of CKD in forms of the disease with increased levels of
protein in the urine.[16][17] Although the use of ACE inhibitors and ARBs
represents the current standard of care for people with CKD, people
progressively lose kidney function while on these medications, as seen in the
IDNT[18] and RENAL[19] studies, which reported a decrease over time in estimated
GFR (an accurate measure of CKD progression, as detailed in the K/DOQI
guidelines[1]) in people treated by these conventional methods.
Replacement of erythropoietin and calcitriol, two hormones processed by the
kidney, is often necessary in people with advanced disease. Guidelines[20]
recommend treatment with parenteral iron prior to treatment with erythropoietin.
A target hemoglobin level of 9–12 g/dl is recommended.[21][22] The normalization
of hemoglobin has not been found to be of benefit.[23] It is unclear if
androgens help with anemia.[24] Phosphate binders are also used to control the
serum phosphate levels, which are usually elevated in advanced chronic kidney
disease. Although the evidence for them is limited, phosphodiesterase-5
inhibitors and zinc show potential for helping men with sexual
dysfunction.[8]
At stage 5 CKD, renal replacement therapy is usually required, in the form of
either dialysis or a transplant.
