Abstract

血液透析患者における適切な補正カルシウム計算式の検討 王 麗 楊 用 稲 栄 寒 川 昌 平 山田 佐知子 桑 原 隆 大阪府済生会茨木病院腎臓内科 キーワード:イオン化カルシウム,アルブミン補正カルシウム,Payne の式,KDOQI 式,アルブミン測定法 〈要旨〉 カルシウム(Ca)の生理学的効果は,イオン化 Ca(iCa)濃度によって決定されるが,iCa は日常的には測定され ていない.日本では血清アルブミン(Alb)濃度を用いて血清総 Ca(tCa)を補正した補正 Ca(cCa)が広く用い られている.今回われわれは,低 Alb 血症の血液透析患者で現在用いられている補正式 (Payne の式および KDOQI-1 式,KDOQI-2 式)が適切かどうかを検討した.血液透析患者 41 名のうち,血清 Alb 3.7 g/dL 未満であった 33 名 で,iCa と tCa,cCa の相関を比較検討した.Alb は BCP 改良法で測定し,測定値に 0.3 g/dL 加えた値を BCG 法 の推測値として用いた.cCa と iCa との相関係数は KDOQI-1 式が最も高く,次いで tCa,KDOQI-2 式となり, Payne の式との相関が最も低かった.KDOQI-2 式,Payne の式は低 Ca 血症の見逃しが多く,偽性高 Ca 血症も 2 例認めた.一方,tCa では偽性低 Ca 血症を 7 例認めた.低 Alb 血症患者の iCa に対応した tCa の推定には KDOQI-1 式による Alb 補正 Ca 濃度評価が勧められる. Keywords: ionized calcium, corrected calcium, Payne's formula, KDOQI formulae, albumin measurement method 〈Abstract〉 The biological effects of calcium are determined by the ionized calcium concentration (iCa). However, since the iCa is not routinely measured in many guidelines evaluations of Ca concentrations are based on the total calcium concentration(tCa). The tCa accurately reflects the iCa in patients with normal albumin levels, but not in patients with hypoalbuminemia. The guidelines produced by the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy recommend correcting the tCa using Payne's formula: corrected Ca=tCa+ (4-albumin). The iCa, tCa, and serum albumin level were measured simultaneously just before the first dialysis session of the week. Among the 41 hemodialysis patients investigated, 33 had hypoalbuminemia(a serum albumin level of<3.7 g/dL)and were included in the analysis. Payne's formula and two formulae recommended by the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative(KDOQI ; the KDOQI-1 and KDOQI-2 formulae)were used to estimate the iCa. The serum albumin level was measured using the modified bromocresol purple method. The measured albumin levels were converted using the conventional bromocresol green method by adding 0.3 mg/dL. The KDOQI-1 formula exhibited the highest specificity for predicting the iCa (R 2 : 0.50) , followed by the tCa (R 2 : 0.45) , the KDOQI-2 formula (R 2 : 0.44) , and Payne's formula (R 2 : 0.37) in the 33 hemodialysis patients with hypoalbuminemia. In conclusion, this study suggested that the KDOQI-1 formula might be useful for predicting the iCa in hemodialysis patients with hypoalbuminemia.
