Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is the third most common non-communicable disease throughout the world. Studies have shown that kidney patients suffer much from hypertension, diabetes than glomerulonephritis. Many of these CKD patients ultimately terminate to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) when life is not sustainable unless hemodialysis is initiated. Aim: The aim of this study was to identify primary renal disease leading to ESRD requiring hemodialysis and associated co-morbidities. Material and methods: Data was collected purposively from selected six hemodialysis centers. Patients were selected purposively who were available at the time of interview. Data was collected on working days at three shifts After taking informed consent from patients the pre-tested questionnaire was filled up by taking general history, family history, socioeconomic condition, drug history and available records were reviewed for collecting previous biochemical parameters. All entered data were analyzed by using SPSS program version 13.0. Result: Among total 393 subjects, male was 247(63%) and female 146 (37%). Majority were middle aged. Glomerulonephritis were found to be the leading cause of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) (50.4%), followed by diabetes in 31.1%, Poly Cystic Kidney Disease (PKD) 5.3%, Renal Stone in 3.7% and rest other. Among the study population hypertension was the most common co morbidity disease (63%) followed by ischemic heart disease and Cerebrovascular accidents. Conclusion: Glomerulonephritis was found to be the leading cause of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and diabetic nephropathy was the second common cause. Hypertension was the most common associated co morbid disease. To evaluate the actual disease pattern a large scale study is required to find the outcome of haemodialysis patients.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/kyamcj.v2i2.13262KYAMC Journal Vol.2(2) January 2012, 182-186

Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is the third most common non-communicable disease throughout the world. Most of the patients with chronic kidney disease suffer from hypertension, diabetes and with glomerulonephritis. Many of these CKD patients ultimately terminate to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) when life is not sustainable unless hemodialysis is initiated. This study was to identify systemic and renal disease leading to ESRD requiring hemodialysis and associated co-morbidities.Methods: Data was collected from three selected three hemodialysis centers in three hospitals during one-year study in Iraq. Patients were selected purposively who were available at the time of interview. Data was collected on working days at three shifts. these data collected from patients and their relatives in these centers after taking informed consent from patients the pre-tested questionnaire was filled up by taking general history, family history, socioeconomic condition, drug history and available records were reviewed for collecting previous biochemical parameters. All entered data were analyzed by using SPSS program.Results: Among total 400 subjects, male was 260 (65%) and female 140 (35%). Majority of patients were middle aged. Glomerulonephritis were found to be the leading cause of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) (50.4%), followed by diabetes in 31.1%, Poly Cystic Kidney Disease (PKD) 5.3%, Renal Stone in 3.7% and rest other. Among the study population hypertension was the most common co morbidity disease (63%) followed by ischemic heart disease and Cerebrovascular accidents.Conclusions: The leading cause of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) was the glomerulonephritis and diabetic nephropathy was the second common cause. Hypertension was the most common associated co morbid disease.

Introduction: Hemodialysis is the preferred method of treatment for Nepalese patients with End Stage Renal Disease. Despite the technological advances and better understanding of physiology associated with hemodialysis, a number of complications are known to be associated with hemodialysis. This study was undertaken to study the frequency of acute intradialytic complications in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Nephrology unit of a tertiary care hospital from 15 June, 2007 to 15 December, 2007. A total of 28 patients were included in the study. Patients with acute renal failure and acute on chronic renal failure were excluded from the study. Results: Total sessions of hemodialysis during the period were 1455. Hypotensive episode were 66 (4.5%) and was the commonest complication and followed by hypertensive episodes were 58 (3.8%). Other problems encountered were transfusion reactions were 23 episodes (1.5%), rigors not related to transfusions were 13 episodes (0.8%), nausea/vomiting were 20 episodes (1.4%), muscle cramps were 12 episodes (0.8%), hypoglycemia were 6 episodes 5(0.4%). Conclusions: The frequency of intradialytic complications is low and many of them are not life threatening. Keywords: complications; end stage renal disease; hemodialysis; hypertension; hypotension.

End-stage renal disease (ESRD) treatment rates in the United States have increased steadily since 1973. Decreasing selection against elderly patients with a poor prognostic primary cause of ESRD (i.e., diabetic nephropathy) may partly account for this increase in rates. To test this hypothesis, we calculated log ESRD treatment incidence (ESRDI) rates by four major primary causes of ESRD (diabetic nephropathy (DN), hypertensive nephropathy (HN), glomerulonephritis (GN), and cystic kidney disease (PC); two age groups (old (O), greater than 65 and young (Y), 15 to 44 yr of age) for black and white, male and female, new ESRD patients from 1978 to 1987. As predicted, summary log ESRDI slopes (produced by analysis of covariance) occurred in the following decreasing order, ODN (0.19), OGN = OHN = YDN (0.134). YHN = YPC = YGN (in white patients) = slope not significantly different from 0. Log ESRDI slopes for young black males and females with GN increased significantly between 1978 and 1987, possibly as a result of an increased incidence of GN. In conclusion, decreasing selection may be a factor in the continuing increase in the U.S. ESRD population.
