Summary

The purpose of this study was to ascertain the percentage of cardiac patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 treated with paricalcitol IV achieving intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels in target range of Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI) treatment guidelines (150 - 300 pg/mL) after 2 years.
