Epidemiology of the Renal Failure at Thi-Qar Province
Abstract
Background: Renal failure is a worldwide health problem. The incidence and prevalence of renal failure is in constant increase, involving poor outcomes and high costs. The major leading causes of kidney failure are type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Objective: To study the epidemiology of renal failure in Dhi Qar province.
Patients and Methods: A cross sectional study including a review of 188 cases of Renal Failure recorded in Kidney dialysis center at Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital in Dhi Qar for the period from December 1, 2022 to March 20, 2023. The collected data was analyzed by using computer, excel and using of SPSS-24. All the variables were analyzed by number, proportion and percentage.
Results: Males was about 40.2% and females was 59.5%. The reasons of Renal failure ratio was diabetes about 19.36%, Hypertension about 12.23%, Unknown cause about 17.55%, Glomerilonephritis about 5.3%. Obstructive nephropathy about 3.16%, Congenital about 2.8% and others about 4.22%. The major co- morbidities in renal failure patient on Hemodialysis was anemia about 46.80%, Hypertension about 29.25%, Heart failure about 4.57%, Ischemic heart disease about 10.56% and Cerebrovascular accident about 0.7%.
Conclusion: The incidence rate was high and the prevalence rate was low due to low survival.
