  4. 10. Chronic condition that is caused by uncontrolled sugars; most common cause of CKD
  5. 12. Generalized feeling of fatigue that CKD patients feel, often limiting their exercise capacity
  6. 13. Repeated episodes of this infection could result in CKD
  7. 15. Initial exercise intensity recommended for those with CKD
  8. 16. Last resort treatment for those individuals with CKD where dialysis is no longer effective
  9. 17. Blood metabolite from muscle breakdown
  10. 18. Gradual loss of kidney function
  11. 20. Obstruction in the kidney or ureter that, if untreated, can result in acute or chronic kidney disease

  13. 22. Stage of CKD characterized by kidney damage and a mild decrease in GFR (GFR = 60-89)

  4. 7. This measurement of exercise intensity should be used instead of HR in hemodialysis patients
  5. 8. Autoimmune disease that will often affect kidney function
  6. 9. Percent of age-predicted maximum HR in hemodialysis patients representitive of their peak HR
  7. 11. Measure of kidney function; rate at which the kidney can filter blood
  8. 14. Dysfunction of all organ systems because of untreated acute or chronic renal disease
