INTRODUCTION: The epidemiology of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and renal replacement therapy (RRT) is under continuous evolution all over the world. We report here the epidemiological analysis of ESRD and RRT in Iran and discuss it against the background of the international situation. METHODS: This epidemiological report is based on data from centre questionnaires which were collected in Iran from 1997 onwards, with a response rate of 100%. RESULTS: The prevalence/incidence of RRT patients were 238/49.9 p.m.p. in the year 2000. Haemodialysis and kidney transplantation were the most common RRT modalities, accounting for 53.7% and 45.5% of prevalent RRT patients, respectively. The proportion treated by peritoneal dialysis was very low (<1%). Home haemodialysis was not performed. The majority of haemodialysis centres used synthetic membranes (70%) and 100% of the sessions were performed using acetate as a buffer; 42.5% of haemodialysis patients were treated with a twice-weekly regimen, whilst 49.6% were on the standard thrice-weekly regimen. The majority of RRT patients in Iran were young to middle aged. The great majority of renal allografts came from living donors (mainly unrelated to recipients). The main renal diseases leading to ESRD were diabetes and hypertension. The third most common category was "cause unknown". CONCLUSION: The epidemiology of RRT in Iran is characterized by: (i) young patient age (younger than the international average); (ii) high proportion of patients receiving renal allograft; (iii) use of living-unrelated donors as the major source of renal allografts. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is changing all over the world. Particularly dramatic changes of the epidemiology of ESRD have occurred in central and eastern Europe (CEE). The aim of the present study was (i) to document the further expansion of renal replacement therapy (RRT) noted in recent years in CEE and (ii) to analyse in some detail treatment modalities and underlying renal conditions. METHODS: Three independent surveys were performed in 1995, 1997 and 1998. Fifteen CEE countries participated. The data were mainly obtained from national registries which are based on centre and patient questionnaires. RESULTS: The data collected from 15 CEE countries document further expansion of RRT in this region. The report includes data on the availability of RRT in Byelorussia, Estonia, and Russia which have become available for the first time. The epidemiology of dialysed patients has changed remarkably. In the majority of countries the number of diabetic patients has increased, most dramatically so in the Czech Republic (31% of all dialysed patients), in the majority of the other countries 10-14%. The number of ESRD patients with the diagnosis of hypertensive nephropathy has also increased and this was accompanied by an increase in proportion of elderly (>65 years) patients, i.e. 46% in the Czech Republic and 12-25% in most other countries. CONCLUSION: Dramatic changes of the availability of RRT treatment have occurred in central and eastern Europe. The proportion of diabetic nephropathy and elderly patients has risen. Large differences in RRT exist between individual CEE countries and this appears mainly dependent on the level of economic development. 相似文献

Influence of a pre-dialysis education programme (PDEP) on the mode of renal replacement therapy. 总被引:5,自引:2,他引:3

BACKGROUND: The distribution of renal replacement therapy (RRT) modalities among patients varies from country to country, and is often influenced by non-medical factors. In our department, patients progressing towards end-stage renal disease (ESRD) go through a structured Pre-Dialysis Education Programme (PDEP). The goals of the programme, based on both individualized information session(s) given by an experienced nurse to the patient and family and the use of in-house audio-visual tapes, are to inform on all modalities of RRT, in order to decrease anxiety and promote self-care RRT modalities. METHODS: To evaluate the influence of our PDEP on the choice of RRT modalities, we retrospectively reviewed the modalities chosen by all consecutive patients starting a first RRT in our institution between December 1994 and March 2000. RESULTS: Two hundred and forty-two patients started a first RRT during the study period. Fifty-seven patients, median age 66 (24-80) years, were directed towards in-centre haemodialysis (HD) for medical or psycho-social reasons (seven of whom were not involved in the PDEP); the remaining 185 patients, median age 53 (7-81) years, with no major medical complications, went through our PDEP. Eight of them (4%) received a pre-emptive renal transplantation. The therapeutic options of the other 177 patients were as follows: 75 (40%) patients, median age 65 (20-81) years opted for in-centre HD, while 102 patients opted for a self-care modality; 55 (31%) patients, median age 56 (7-77) years, chose peritoneal dialysis, 30 (16%) patients, median age 49 (21-68) years, chose to perform self-care HD in our satellite unit, and 17 (9%) patients, median age 46 (19-70) years, opted for home HD. Interestingly, in the whole cohort of patients, the cause of ESRD was associated with the RRT modality: the proportion of patients with chronic glomerulonephritis or chronic interstitial nephritis on self-care therapy was significantly higher than that of patients with nephrosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy or unknown cause of ESRD. CONCLUSION: In our centre offering all treatment RRT modalities, a high percentage of patients exposed to a structured PDEP start with a self-care RRT modality. This leaves in-centre HD for patients needing medical and nursing care, or for patients refusing to participate in their treatment. Additional large studies, preferably with a randomized design, should delineate the cost-benefit of such a PDEP on the final choice of a RRT modality. 相似文献

We conducted a survey on the adequacy of delivered informed consent (IC) among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) regarding the information provided on renal replacement therapies (RRT): Hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD), and renal transplantation (RTx). A self-assessment style of questionnaire entitled "Informed consent for the selection of dialysis therapy modality" was prepared for evaluation, and the adequacy of IC was scored by 5 grades ranging from "excellent" to "bad". The questionnaire was sent to all the JSDT registered facilities (n=3484), and 480 centers replied (13.8%). Among these, 407 centers had patients introduced onto some form of RRT modality in the last 12 months. As to the adequacy of delivered IC for each modality, "excellent and good" status was reported as follows: 80.8% in HD, 49.8% in PD, and 32.5% in RTx, respectively. The major reason for "poor and bad" IC adequacy in PD and RTx, was "not available in the facility". By analyzing the facilities stratified by the clinical experiences of each modality in the past, poorly delivered IC for PD and RTx was revealed in centers lacking experience. Delivered information about RRT to ESRD patients may be biased in Japan. The findings of this study suggested that a lack of medical experience of the modality contributes to insufficient IC. 相似文献

We had earlier conducted two cross-sectional studies on the epidemiology of endstage renal disease (ESRD) in the El-Minia Governorate. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence, etiology and risk factors for ESRD in the El-Minia Governorate during the year 2006. Patients on renal replacement therapy (RRT), numbering 1356, were recruited into this study. A standardized questionnaire was completed including demographics, family history, risk factors for ESRD, environmental exposure to toxins, work conditions, social history and causes of death. Only 800 (59%) of the 1356 patients agreed to participate in this study. Their mean age was 46 ± 13 years, median 43 (range 18-80). The male vs. female ratio was 65% vs. 35%. The etiology of ESRD was unknown in 27%, hypertension in 20%, chronic glomerulonephritis in 11%, obstructive uropathy in 12%, bilhaziasis in 3%, analgesic nephropathy in 5%, chronic pyelonephritis in 5%, diabetic nephropathy in 8% and others, e.g. lupus in 9%. The overall prevalence of ESRD was 308 per million population (pmp). The modalities of RRT used on the study patients included hemodialysis (HD) in 1315 (97%), peritoneal dialysis (PD) in 27 (2%) and renal transplantation in 14 patients (1%). The death rate was 190/1000. Our study suggests that the epidemiology of ESRD in the El-Minia Governorate is different from that in European countries and the US and thus, region-specific interventions must be developed to control the epidemic of ESRD in the world. 相似文献

Summary BACKGROUND: The number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is increasing worldwide at a rate of approximately 5 % per year. In Austria, 6049 patients were suffering from ESRD in the year 2001, an annual rate of 1093 patients. Higher age of patients and co-morbidities are forcing nephrologists to find the optimal renal replacement therapy (RRT) and access modality for the individual patient. METHODS: For patients with ESRD needing RRT, both nephrologist and surgeon should be consulted to ensure optimal management and treatment including vascular access surgery. Patients planned for peritoneal dialysis (PD) are treated with the cooperation of a visceral surgeon. A catheter is inserted into the pelvic area to enable solution exchange. In patients who are to undergo hemodialysis (HD), nephrologists have to decide whether the cardiac condition is suitable for surgical access creation such as fistula or graft. Otherwise alternative hemodialysis devices such as a central venous catheter (CVC), or subcutaneously implantable ports (Dialock®), have to be discussed. Access function is routinely monitored during dialysis treatment, but still remains the weak component of extracorporeal RRT responsible for 40 % of hospitalization of HD patients. RESULTS: At the dialysis unit of the University Hospital of Graz, 107 patients were under RRT (70 HD and 37 PD), and 235 patients were hemodialyzed in private units in Graz in 2001. 81 ESRD patients were newly enrolled in the chronic HD program. 131 HD accesses were created in new HD patients and patients under treatment for chronic HD. 36 patients developed HD access complications and in these patients, 181 surgical and/or radiological interventions were performed. CONCLUSIONS: In 12 % of the HD patients in Graz, access problems occurred. These patients have a high frequency of surgical and radiological interventions. Access monitoring and measurement of recirculation may help to reduce the complication rate by 38 %. Before onset of RRT, patients need special management to ensure the best dialysis modality. ESRD patients who are suffering from cardiac diseases, diabetes mellitus, or bad peripheral vascular status need a multidisciplinary approach with nephrologists, cardiologists, surgeons and radiologists working together to find the optimal access for dialysis treatment. 相似文献

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and in‐center hemodialysis (HD) are accepted as clinically equivalent dialysis modalities, yet in‐center HD is the predominant renal replacement therapy (RRT) modality offered to new end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) patients in the United States and most other industrialized nations. This predominance has little to do with clinical outcomes, patient choice, cost, or quality of life. It has been driven by ease of HD initiation, physician experience and training, inadequate pre‐ESRD patient education, ample in‐center HD capacity, and lack of adequate infrastructure for PD‐related care. As compared with in‐center HD, PD is a widely applicable, yet underutilized modality of RRT that provides comparable clinical outcomes, superior quality of life measures, significant cost savings, and many other unmeasured advantages. A “PD First” approach not only has advantages for patients but also physicians, healthcare systems, and society. In this review, we will summarize evidence demonstrating that PD should be the default modality when new ESRD patients are transitioning to dialysis therapy when preemptive transplantation is not an option and highlight the essential infrastructural requirements to allow for a “PD First” model. 相似文献

Despite population, social and cultural similarities between the countries in the region, large differences in the management of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are found. This reflects the varying policies and health priorities of different countries, leading to differences in terms of renal replacement therapies (RRT) facilities. Hemodialysis remains the most frequent modality. Demographic and epidemiological transition has lead to an increased incidence of diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension, but glomerulonephritis and interstitial nephropathies remain important causes of ESRD in the region. 相似文献

In developing countries such as India, the management of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is largely guided by economic considerations. In the absence of health insurance plans, fewer than 10% of all patients receive renal replacement therapy (RRT). Hemodialysis (HD) is mainly a short-term measure to support ESRD patients prior to transplant. Infections are common in dialysis patients. The majority of patients starting HD die or are forced to abandon treatment because of cost constraints within the first 3 months. The cost of peritoneal dialysis (PD) is two times higher than that of HD, fewer than 2% of patients are started on PD. Among the three RRT options available, renal transplant is the preferred mode, as it is most cost-effective and provides a better quality of life. But due to financial constraints and nonavailability of organs, only about 5% of ESRD patients undergo transplant surgery. Though the removal of organs from brain-dead patients has been legalized, the concept of donation of organs from deceased donors has not received adequate social sanction. Only 2% of all transplants are performed from deceased donors. Due to limited access to RRT, the ideal approach should be to reduce the incidence of ESRD and attempt preventive measures. Preemptive transplant, reducing the duration of dialysis prior to transplant, use of immunosuppression for only up to 1 year, and availability of more deceased donor organs may be helpful to make RRT options within the reach of the common man. 相似文献

Nephrology, dialysis and transplantation in Turkey. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The establishment of the Turkish Society of Nephrology (TSN) in 1970 coincided with that of many western European nephrology societies. The TSN organized the 15th ERA-EDTA Congress in Istanbul in 1978, earlier than many European Countries, and currently has 286 active members. At present, Turkey has 161 nephrologists, which equals 2.5 nephrologists per million population (p.m.p.). The number of original articles submitted by Turkish authors to the journal Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation ranks 7th-8th amongst total submissions to the journal. Turkey also ranks 2nd-4th in the number of abstracts submitted to recent ERA-EDTA Congresses. With 18 063 patients undergoing intermittent haemodialysis treatment in 348 dialysis centres, Turkey has the 5th largest chronic haemodialysis patient population among European countries. In addition, 1903 patients are currently undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. However, with a total of 4693 renal transplants since 1975, of which only 21.3% were of cadaveric origin, Turkey lags considerably behind other European countries in renal transplantation. In Turkey, the prevalence and incidence of renal replacement therapy (RRT) are at present 358 and 52 p.m.p. respectively, and the expansion rate of the RRT stock is 17% (HD 18.5%, CAPD 6%, and transplantation 1.7%). The yearly gross mortality rate of the total RRT population is 9.4%. The present priorities of the Turkish nephrological community include high-standard research activity and long-term, prospective clinical and epidemiological studies, an increase in the total number and percentage of cadaveric transplants, further improvement of the quality and cost-effectiveness of RRT, and finally the further development of scientific and educational collaboration with the world nephrological community. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: This report on the 1994-1998 Dialysis and Transplantation Registry (DTR) of Puglia and Basilicata provides the first epidemiological profile of ESRD in southern Italy. METHODS: Frequency measures of patients in renal replacement therapy (RRT) were computed for Puglia and Basilicata (inhabitants: 4,086,422 and 610,000 respectively). Hazard ratios (HR) of death in relation to sex, age, educational level, primary nephropathies, and modality of dialysis, were estimated by applying the Cox model to patients starting dialysis as first RRT in 1994-1998 in Puglia. RESULTS: The prevalence of treated ESRD in Puglia was 881 per million population (p.m.p.) (dialysis: 721 p.m.p.) in 1998, 713 p.m.p. (dialysis: 617 p.m.p.) in 1994. In Basilicata the prevalence of ESRD was 795 p.m.p. (dialysis: 669 p.m.p.) in 1998, 636 p.m.p. (dialysis: 575 p.m.p.) in 1994. Mean age at start of dialysis of incident cases of Puglia was 60 yr (median: 64 yr). Figures of diabetes, vascular diseases, and glomerulonephritis, were: 16%, 21%, 17%. Out of 2,152 incident patients on dialysis for at least one month, 293 started with peritoneal dialysis (PD). A 60-70% higher risk of death was observed for diabetic nephropathy and PD. In the Puglia/Basilicata DTR pooled analysis, lower educational level was associated with a 60% increased mortality risk. CONCLUSIONS: The associations of PD and low education with the risk of death are very likely to be due to comorbid conditions, unavailable in these databases as in most regional and national DTR. By looking at variations of rates and outcomes among areas, potential improvements of local DTR for planning and research uses are discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are emerging as globally important public health problems, and will necessitate improvements in health-care policy. ESRD incidence/prevalence data are not available from large parts of the developing world. The main objective of this study is to describe and assess the current clinical practices for patients on maintenance haemodialysis (HD) living in the province of Tehran. METHODS: In December 2005, an observational study was performed with 2630 patients (1505 males and 1125 females) from 56 different centres in the province of Tehran (the entire HD population), which has a population of 13.5 million inhabitants. RESULTS: The prevalence/incidence of HD was 194.8/77.3 p.m.p. The leading causes of ESRD were diabetes and hypertension. Population of 90.3 and 9% received three and two sessions per week, respectively, with a KT/V mean value of 0.97+/-0.25. All centres used synthetic membranes, and 68% of the sessions were performed using bicarbonate as a buffer. The type of vascular access was autogenous arteriovenous fistula in 91% of patients. Our findings indicated that compliance with the K/DOQI recommendations for calcium-phosphorus management is difficult to achieve. Only 1.8% of patients achieved all four target laboratory tests. For the management of anaemia, ferritin was the most commonly performed measure of iron status (76.7%). Iron deficiency was seen in <20% of patients (ferritin 相似文献

Annual Report of the German Renal Registry 1998. QuaSi-Niere Task Group for Quality Assurance in Renal Replacement Therapy. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
During the past 3 years, the basis of a German Renal Registry has been established. An agreement between end-stage renal disease (ESRD) therapy providers, insurance companies and the government has been reached to fund and support the registry office and its electronic data base. An overall acceptable compliance has been achieved to provide data voluntarily, although in the future the data submission will have to be mandatory to achieve complete data sampling within an acceptable time frame. In Germany, 713 patients per million population (p.m.p.) are on renal replacement therapy (RRT). The incidence of new patients commencing RRT is 156 p.m.p. These numbers are comparable with those reported from other European countries such as France, Italy and Spain, but significantly lower than those reported from the US or Japan. More than 92% of all dialysis patients are treated by haemodialysis and only a limited number with peritoneal dialysis. Approximately 25% of the patients have a functioning kidney graft. The transplantation rate of 25 p.m.p. is far from sufficient if compared with Spain, Austria or the US. Although an increasing number of diabetic patients commenced RRT, the percentage, i.e. approximately 30%, is less than in the US or Japan. The annual growth of the population on renal replacement cannot currently be given precisely because the database is still limited, but it seems to be approximately 3-4%. 相似文献

Patients undergoing dialysis are at high risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of hemodialysis (HD) versus peritoneal dialysis (PD) on survival and the risk of developing de novo CVD. Of the 4191 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who started renal replacement treatment (RRT) in Lombardy between 1994 and 1997, 4064 (who were on dialysis 30 d after the start of RRT) were considered for survival analysis: 2772 were on HD (mean age 60.9 yr; 21.2% diabetic) and 1292 on PD (mean age 63.6 yr; 16% diabetic). The 3120 patients who were free of CVD at the start of RRT were included in the analysis of the risk of developing de novo CVD. HD and PD were compared by use of a Cox-regression proportional hazard model, stratified by diabetic status; the explanatory covariates were age and gender. The death rate was 13.3 per 100 patient-years (13.0 on HD and 13.9 on PD); 197 (6.3%) of the 3120 patients included in the CVD analysis developed de novo CVD (128 on HD and 69 on PD). After adjustment for age, gender, and established CVD and stratification by diabetic status, there was no significant between-treatment difference in 4-yr survival (relative risk [RR], 0.91; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79 to 1.06). The risk of de novo CVD did not differ significantly by treatment modality (RR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.79 to 1.43). The risk of mortality and de novo CVD for new patients with ESRD assigned to HD or PD was similar in Lombardy in the period 1994 through 1997. 相似文献

Overview: end-stage renal disease in the developing world 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Barsoum RS 《Artificial organs》2002,26(9):737-746
Although the vast majority of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) worldwide live in what is called the developing world, little is known about its epidemiology and management. With the current paucity of credible and adequately representative registries, it is justified to resort to innovative means of obtaining information. In this attempt, world-renowned leading nephrologists in 10 developing countries collaborated in filling a 103-item questionnaire addressing epidemiology, etiology, and management of ESRD in their respective countries on the basis of integrating available data from different sources. Through this joint effort, it was possible to identify a number of important trends. These include the expected high prevalence of ESRD, despite the limited access to renal replacement therapy, and the dependence of prevalence on wealth. Glomerulonephritis, rather than diabetes, remains as the main cause of ESRD with significant geographical variations in the prevailing histopathological types. The implementation of different modalities of renal replacement therapy (RRT) is inhibited by the lack of funding, although governments, insurance companies, and donations usually constitute the major sponsors. Hemodialysis is the preferred modality in most countries with the exception of Mexico where chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) takes the lead. In several other countries, dialysis is available only for those on the transplant waiting list. Dialysis is associated with a high frequency of complications particularly HBV and HCV infections. Data on HIV are lacking. Aluminum intoxication remains as a major problem in a number of countries. Treatment withdrawal is common for socioeconomic reasons. Transplantation is offered to an average of 4 per million population (pmp). Recipient exclusion criteria are minimal. Donor selection criteria are generally loose regarding tissue typing, remote viral infection, and, in some countries, blood-relation to the recipient in live-donor transplants. Cadaver donors are accepted in many countries participating in this survey. Treatment outcomes with different RRT modalities are, on the average, inferior to the internationally acknowledged standards largely due to infective and cardiovascular complications. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In the context of the transformation of the Health Systems of
Central and Eastern European countries, the role of professional
associations is increasing, especially as regards data collection,
analysis, and implementation of programmes for development of nephrology
and renal replacement therapy (RRT). METHODS: The Romanian Renal Registry
sent questionnaires to the heads of Haemodialysis and Nephrology Centres.
The need for renal replacement therapy was deduced from the annual
incidence (127 patients p.m.p.) of chronic renal failure. RESULTS: Although
the rates of increase in the numbers of Nephrology Departments (+82%), HD
Centres (+142%), and total number of patients alive on RRT (+196%) from
1991 to 1995 were higher than the European mean, only 27-30% of the
incident patients (459 of 1000-1200 patients) could be provided with RRT.
Sixty-two percent of the need for RRT in the age group 25-44 years was met,
while only 20% of children (age < 15 years) and people over 55 years
requiring RRT received this treatment. Primary renal diseases in patients
on RRT were glomerulonephritis (49%) or interstitial nephropathies (23%);
diabetic nephropathies, nephroangiosclerosis and systemic diseases were
rare (4, 2, and 1% respectively). Most of the CRF patients (88%) were
treated by HD. Renal transplantation and peritoneal dialysis were seldom
performed (8 and 4%). The cost of HD treatment in Romania (87 USD) is low,
even though dialyser reuse is not common practice. CONCLUSIONS: The
increase in renal replacement therapy in Romania was mainly due to the
expansion of the number of haemodialysis centres. Although a significant
progress was realized, only one-third of the patients needing RRT could be
treated in Romania in 1995.

The French Renal Epidemiology and Information Network (REIN) registry began in 2002 to provide a tool for public health decision support, evaluation and research related to renal replacement therapies (RRT) for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). It relies on a network of nephrologists, epidemiologists, patients and public health representatives, coordinated regionally and nationally. Continuous registration covers all dialysis and transplanted patients. In 2003, 2070 patients started RRT, 7854 were on dialysis and 7294 lived with a functioning graft in seven regions (with a population of 16.5 million people). The overall crude annual incidence rate of RRT for ESRD was 123 per million population (p.m.p.) with significant differences in age-adjusted rates across regions, from 84 [95% confidence interval (CI): 74-94] to 155 [138-172] p.m.p. The principal causes of ESRD were hypertension (21%) and diabetic (20%) nephropathies. Initial treatment for ESRD was peritoneal dialysis for 15% of patients and a pre-emptive graft for 3%. The one-year survival rate was 81% [79-83] in the cohort of 2002-2003 incident patients. As of December 31, 2003, the overall crude prevalence was 898 [884-913] p.m.p, with 5% of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis, 47% on haemodialysis and 48% with a functioning graft. The experience in these seven regions over these two years clearly shows the feasibility of the REIN registry, which is progressively expanding to cover the entire country. 相似文献

Background. Until 1990, haemodialysis (HD) in Lithuania wasunderdeveloped, but after independence, development of HD started.Until 1996, no precise data about HD patients in Lithuania wereavailable. In order to create a registry of HD, we started tocollect data about dialysis services and HD patients in 1996.Every collection of data was followed by distribution and discussionof the results within the nephrological community. This studydescribes the changes of Lithuanian HD between 19962002. Methods. Between 1996 till 2002 all HD centres in Lithuaniawere annually visited and data were collected about all HD patients(response rate of 100%). The evaluation of the results duringour observational study was made according to the European BestPractice Guidelines. During annual conferences for nephrologists,the guidelines and data of our HD registry were presented. Results. There was an increase in the number of HD stations(from 25 p.m.p. to 75 p.m.p., P<0.001), in HD patients (from60 p.m.p. to 237 p.m.p., P<0.001) and in the incidence ofnew HD patients (from 54.3 p.m.p. to 103 p.m.p., P<0.01).The mean age of HD patients increased from 47.2±16.1years in 1996 to 56.0±14.9 in 2002 (P<0.001). Themain underlying cause of ESRD was chronic glomerulonephritis,but its rate decreased from 54.5% in 1996 to 27.5% in 2002 (P<0.001).The percentage of diabetics increased from 7.1% to 16.4%, P<0.05,and in hypertensive nephropathy from 3.1% to 10.9%, P<0.05.We observed improvement of the quality of HD in Lithuania duringthese 5 years. The percentage of patients on bicarbonate HDincreased from 7.1% in 1996 to 100% in 2002 (P<0.001). Thepercentage of patients receiving more than 12 h HD/week increasedfrom 30.8% in 1996 to 53.5% in 2002 (P<0.001). The mean Kt/Vin 1999 was 0.81±0.53, but it increased in 2002 to 1.22±0.27,P<0.001. In 2002, 84.6% of all HD patients were examinedfor HBsAg, 82.3% for antiHCV, 31.2% for anti-HBs and57.1% for anti-HBc. The percentage of patients receiving phosphatebinders increased from 65.2% in 1996 to 84.4% in 1997 and 90.5%in 2002. Serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were measuredin 27.3% of HD patients in 1999 but in 85.2% of patients in2002. The mean haemoglobin (Hb) concentration increased from92±15.4 g/l to 105±14.7 g/l; the percentage ofpatients with Hb>100 g/l increased from 27.5% to 64% in 2001.The percentage of HD patients receiving epoetin was 94.6% in2001 as compared with 78% in 1997. There was a marked increasein the use of intravenous iron (from 7.5% patients in 1997 to70.8% in 2000). The mean weekly dose of Epo was lower in HDpatients receiving intravenous iron than in patients receivingoral iron. Conclusions. Over the period of 19962002 the HD servicessignificantly expanded in Lithuania. The introduction of EuropeanBest Practice Guidelines and the establishment of a HD registrywith feedback of the results stimulated the significant progressin the quality of HD and in the management of the patients. 相似文献

In this retrospective study 351 children (<16.0 years) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) accepted for renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the four Dutch pediatric centers were analyzed for the period 1987–2001. The data were compared with a previous study performed in 1979–1986. Eighty patients were of non-Dutch origin. An annual ESRD incidence of 5.8 patients per million of the child population (p.m.c.p.) was calculated, without significant changes with time. The final prevalence in Dutch children under 15 years of ESRD was 38.7 p.m.c.p. The most frequent primary renal disease leading to ESRD was urethral valves, with a significant increase vs. the previous observation period (14% vs. 6%). The distribution of primary renal diseases was similar in patients of non-Dutch origin and in Dutch patients. Peritoneal dialysis was the most frequent dialysis procedure initially applied (62% vs. 26% in the earlier observation period). Thirteen percent of all first transplantations (n=278) were pre-emptive and 19% from living donors. Five-year graft survival after a living-donor and a cadaver graft was 80% and 73%, respectively. Overall patient survival after 10 years on RRT was 94%. 相似文献

AbstractThe Brunei Dialysis and Transplant Registry (BDTR) was established in 2011 to collect data from patients undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) in Brunei Darussalam. The chief aims of the registry are to obtain general demographic data for RRT patients and to determine disease burden attributable to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). The registry population comprises of all ESRD patients treated in Brunei Darussalam. Data domains include general demographic data, medical history, ESRD etiological causes, laboratory investigations, dialysis treatment and outcomes. There were 545 prevalent RRT patients in Brunei at the end of 2011. The incidence and prevalence of ESRD were 265 and 1250 per million population. Hemodialysis (HD), Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) and Transplant comprised of 83%, 11% and 6% of the RRT population, respectively. Diabetes mellitus accounted for 57% of all new incident cases. The mean serum hemoglobin, phosphate, calcium and iPTH were 11.0?±?1.6?g/dL, 1.9?±?0.5?mmol/L, 2.3?±?0.2?mmol/L and 202.5?±?323.4?ng/mL. Dialysis adequacy for HD and PD were 65.1 (urea reduction ratio) and 2.0?±?0.3 (Kt/v). 71 % of all prevalent HD had functioning AV fistulae and the peritonitis incidence was one in 24.5 patient-month/episode. The first BDTR has identified some deficiencies in the renal services in Brunei. However, it signals an important milestone for the establishment of benchmarked renal practice in the country. We hoped to maintain and improve our registry for years to come and will strive to align our standards to acceptable international practice. 相似文献
