title: Caring for chronic kidney disease patients: focus on mineral and bone disorders.
abstract: This case study focuses on a patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with mineral and bone disorders (MBD) and the relationship and management strategies used in treating CKD-MBD. The various risks and issues pertaining to the CKD stage 5 patient population are addressed, including CKD-MBD and renal osteodystrophy. Proper management of CKD-MBD with diet, dialysis, laboratory testing, and medications is discussed. An interdisciplinary team that includes the patient and family is crucial for effective management of MBD.
