Question : Which of the following are complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD)? (Select all that apply)
A. Anemia
B. Secondary hyperparathyroidism
C. Hyperkalemia
D. Hypotension
Answer: ABC
Explanation: Chronic kidney disease leads to decreased renal function, resulting in complications such as anemia (reduced erythropoietin synthesis), secondary hyperparathyroidism (impaired phosphorus and calcium metabolism), and hyperkalemia (reduced potassium excretion). Hypertension is a common complication and cause of CKD, while hypotension is not typical. Hence, the correct answers are ABC.
