简要总结
The American Heart Association guidelines for high blood pressure (BP) currently recommend using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) as first-line therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 or above. However, the prevalence of ACEi and ARB use in patients with CKD stage 4 or 5 is low, and current BP guidelines acknowledge the lack of solid evidence to support the benefit of using these agents in advanced CKD.This study seeks to conduct a pilot trial to determine the safety and feasibility of ACEi and/or ARB continuation (intervention) versus withdrawal (control) in patients with advanced CKD.

入选标准
- •adults ≥18 years of age who meet the eGFR eligibility criteria, which will be determined based on whether participants have at least two eGFR in the last three months that are < 25 mL/min/1.73m2 or prior diagnosis of CKD (per electronic chart review) and at least one eGFR < 25 mL/min/1.73m2 in the past six months
- •receiving at least one antihypertensive medication at the time of the screening visit.
排除标准
- •The investigators will exclude those who:
- •are or are planning to become pregnant, due to inability to take multiple classes of anti-hypertensive agents
- •are marginally housed, due to concerns regarding routine follow-up
- •are actively participating in a different interventional trial that may affect blood pressure
- •are unwilling to consent to participate
- •institutionalized individuals or prisoners
- •are actively abusing illicit drugs or alcohol
- •have a history of poor or doubtful compliance (e.g., frequently missed appointments)
- •have cognitive impairment prohibiting participation in the study
- •on dialysis at time of recruitment
