Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Across
- 3. Stage of CKD characterized by kidney failure, requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant
- 7. This type of exercise, along with resistance training, is recommended 3-5x per week in patient who have CKD
- 8. Repeated episodes of this infection could result in CKD
- 9. Last resort treatment for those individuals with CKD where dialysis is no longer effective
- 10. Obstruction in the kidney or ureter that, if untreated, can result in acute or chronic kidney disease
- 11. Chronic condition that is caused by uncontrolled sugars; most common cause of CKD
- 13. Gradual loss of kidney function
- 15. Measure of kidney function; rate at which the kidney can filter blood
- 17. Number of days after transplant a patient can begin exercising if medically cleared
- 19. Time of initial exercise recommended for patients with CKD characterized by brief periods of exercise
- 20. Chronic elevation of blood pressure; often result of over-activation of the renin-angiotensin system
- 22. Blood metabolite from muscle breakdown
- 24. Section of the kidney that contains the glomeruli, which filter the blood and produce urine
Down
- 1. Generalized feeling of fatigue that CKD patients feel, often limiting their exercise capacity
- 2. Treatment required in end stage kidney disease that passes the patients blood over a semi-permeable membrane to remove waste
- 4. Sudden, potentially fatal rise in blood potassium
- 5. Stage of CKD characterized by kidney damage and a mild decrease in GFR (GFR = 60-89)
- 6. Fluid build up in the extremities or lungs as a result of decreased kidney function
- 8. This measurement of exercise intensity should be used instead of HR in hemodialysis patients
- 12. Medication class used to aid in the removal of excess fluid through urination while some kidney function still remains
- 14. Dysfunction of all organ systems because of untreated acute or chronic renal disease
- 16. Initial exercise intensity recommended for those with CKD
- 18. Patients must have a GFR <60 for at least this many months to be diagnosed with CKD
- 21. Percent of age-predicted maximum HR in hemodialysis patients representitive of their peak HR
- 23. Autoimmune disease that will often affect kidney function
