Serum Phosphorus Level Rises in US Hemodialysis Patients Over the Past Decade: A DOPPS Special Report

Mineral bone disorder (MBD) is a frequent consequence of chronic kidney disease, more so in patients with kidney failure treated by kidney replacement therapy. Despite the wide availability of interventions to control serum phosphate and parathyroid hormone levels, unmet gaps remain on optimal targe...

description Mineral bone disorder (MBD) is a frequent consequence of chronic kidney disease, more so in patients with kidney failure treated by kidney replacement therapy. Despite the wide availability of interventions to control serum phosphate and parathyroid hormone levels, unmet gaps remain on optimal targets and best practices, leading to international practice pattern variations over time. In this Special Report, we describe international trends from the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS) for MBD biomarkers and treatments from 2002-2021, including data from a group of 7 European countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom), Japan, and the United States. From 2002-2012, mean phosphate levels declined in Japan (5.6 to 5.2 mg/dL), Europe (5.5 to 4.9 mg/dL), and the United States (5.7 to 5.0 mg/dL). Since then, levels rose in the United States (to mean 5.6 mg/dL, 2021), were stable in Japan (5.3 mg/dL), and declined in Europe (4.8 mg/dL). In 2021, 52% (United States), 27% (Europe), and 39% (Japan) had phosphate >5.5 mg/dL. In the United States, overall phosphate binder use was stable (80%-84% over 2015-2021), and parathyroid hormone levels rose only modestly. Although these results potentially stem from pervasive knowledge gaps in clinical practice, the noteworthy steady increase in serum phosphate in the United States over the past decades may be consequential to patient outcomes, an uncertainty that hopefully will soon be addressed by ongoing clinical trials. The DOPPS will continue to monitor international trends as new interventions and strategies ensue for MBD management in chronic kidney disease.
