| Creatinine clearance: | compares the level of creatinine in urine with the creatinine level in the blood. (Creatinine is a breakdown product of creatine, which is an important part of muscle.) The test helps provide information on kidney function |
| Glomerular filtration rate | is a test used to check how well the kidneys are working. Specifically, it estimates how much blood passes through the tiny filters in the kidneys, called glomeruli, each minute |
| Neohrotic syndrome | is a genetic term that refers to a kidney disorder characterized by urinary protein losses greater than 3.0 g/day |

| Proteinuria | increase protein in the urine |
| hypoalbuminemia | decrease of albumin in the urine |
| hypercholesterolemia | high serum chelesterol |
| As the kidney deteriorates, the conversion of this vitamin to it's active form is impaired | Vitamin D |
| These proteins in CKD patients are emphasized because they provide a higher percentage of essential amino acids | High-biologic value proteins |
| Sources of High-biologic value protein | Eggs, fish, poultry, milk, yogurt, cheese, soy |
| Protein allowance in stage 5 is ____% higher than the recommended daily allowance to account for the loss of serum proteins and amino acids in the dialysate. | 50% |
