In chronic kidney disease (CKD), the kidneys' ability to regulate fluid and electrolytes and renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system is impaired, often leading to hypertension. Hypertension is a very common cardiovascular sign in CKD patients due to sodium and water retention and activation of the renin - angiotensin system. Hypotension is not a typical frequent sign. Tachycardia and bradycardia are not as commonly and directly associated with CKD as hypertension.
