Table 4 Target level of serum phosphorus, calcium and iPTH in CKD stage 5

Serum phosphorus

3.5–5.5 mg/dL (1.13–1.78 mmol/L)

Toward Normal [2.5–4.5 mg/dL (0.81–1.45 mmol/L)]

Corrected total calcium

8.4–9.5 mg/dL (2.10–2.38 mmol/L)

Maintain Normal [Healthy: 8.5–10.5 mg/dL (2.13–2.63 mmol/L)]

Serum iPTH

150–300 pg/mL (16.5–33.0 pmmol/L)

2–9 times the upper normal limit (65 pg/mL, 6.9 pmmol/L)
