1. Lifestyle and Dietary Modification | |
2. Weight control: BMI < 25.0 kg/m2 | |
3. Salt restriction: NaCl 3 to 6Â g/day (if hypertensive) | Target blood pressure: <130/80Â mmHg |
4. Protein restriction (Body weight as body mass index 22.0Â kg/m2) | Stage 3a: 0.8 to 1.0Â g/kg/day |
Stage 3b: 0.6 to 0.8Â g/kg/day | |
Stage 4/5: 0.6 to 0.8Â g/kg/day | |
Stage 5D: HD patient 0.9 to 1.2Â g/kg/day | |
PD patient 0.9 to 1.2Â g/kg/day | |
5. Potassium restriction (if hyperkalemia) | Stage 3b: ≤2000 mg/day |
Stage 4/5: ≤1500 mg/day | |
6. Glucose (if DM present): HbA1c < 7.0 % | |
7. Lipids (if dyslipidemia): LDL-C < 120 mg/dL | |
