Overview

Acute phosphate nephropathy is a form of renal injury that occurs as a result of consumption of bowel purgatives which contain oral sodium phosphate (OSP). It can lead to acute kidney injury followed by chronic renal failure. OSP is a commonly used purgative especially before colonoscopy.

Pathophysiology

Pathology

Causes

Epidemiology and Demographics

Gender

Several studies report, the majority of cases of acute phosphate nephropathy in the female gender. It could be related to their smaller heights and subsequently less GFR as compared to men.

Age

Several epidemiological studies have identified advanced age as an independent risk factor of acute phosphate nephropathy. Mean age of 64 years has been identified.

Ethnicity

A higher prevalence has been seen in whites.

Risk Factors

Dose of Oral Sodium Phosphate administered

The risk of acute phosphate nephropathy is directly related to the dose of Oral Sodium Phosphate (OSP) administered. The higher the dose administered, more will be blood phosphate levels and hence there would be a higher chance of harming kidneys and resulting in nephropathy.[1]

Chronic Kidney disease

A chronic kidney disease patient will have a decrease glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Oral Sodium Phosphate (OSP) administration is seen to increase the creatinine levels further worsening their kidney functions. Therefore, Oral Sodium Phosphate is contraindicated in chronic renal disease patients. Instead, polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been found to be a good alternative. [2]

Advanced age

Researchers agree that advanced age is an independent risk factor for acute phosphate nephropathy. One research shows the median age to be 64 years, however, although most studies agree on the advanced age is a strong risk factor, but are unable set a particular age limit.

Co-morbid conditions

Co-morbidities such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus have been found to further increase a patient's risk to acute phosphate nephropathy.

Drugs

The following drugs have been found to be a risk factor for acute phosphate nephropathy:[3] [4]
