The aim of designing this consensus document was to collaborate with nephrologists in the management of mineral metabolism in in patients with chronic kidney disease. To do this, we formulated questions requiring answers for the clinical management of our patients and consulted bibliographic sources and international guidelines with the aim of adapting them to the Argentine situation. The new definitions and the more integrated classification system recently proposed by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Foundation have been taken into account. Chapter V on the Treatment of Abnormal Parathyroid Hormone Values in patients with Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease is presented.
