Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the fourth most common renal requiring replacement therapy (RRT). Still, there are few epidemiological data on prevalence of, and survival RRT for ADPKD. This study used from ERA-EDTA Registry in 12 European countries with 208 million inhabitants. We studied four 5-year periods (1991–2010). Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan–Meier method Cox proportional hazards regression. From first to last period, of ADPKD increased 56.8 91.1...
This paper compares the most recent data on incidence and prevalence of kidney replacement therapy (KRT), transplantation rates, mortality KRT from Europe to those United States (US), including comparisons treatment modalities (haemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis (PD), (KTx)).
Background and objectives More men than women undergo kidney replacement therapy (KRT) despite a larger number of being affected by CKD. The aim this multinational European study was to explore whether there might be historic geographic trends in sex-specific incidence prevalence various KRT modalities. Design, setting, participants, & measurements We assessed differences using data from nine countries reporting the Renal Association–European Dialysis Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA)...
Introduction. Chronic heart failure (HF) has high rates of mortality and hospitalization in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (aCKD). However, randomized clinical trials have systematically excluded aCKD population. We investigated current HF therapy receiving care specialized units. Methods. The Heart And Kidney Audit (HAKA) was a cross-sectional retrospective real-world study including outpatients from 29 Spanish centers. objective to evaluate how the treatment complied...
We evaluated the 15-year kidney allograft survival in patients with primary glomerulonephritis and determined if risk of graft loss varied donor source within each group.Using data from European Renal Association-European Dialysis Transplant Association Registry, Kaplan-Meier, competing risk, Cox regression analyses were performed on adult, first transplant recipients during 1991 to 2010 (n = 14 383). Follow-up was set December 31, 2011. Adjustments for pretransplant dialysis duration, sex,...
Chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP), a persistent itching sensation, is prevalent among hemodialysis patients. This study aims to understand its prevalence, possible association with selected solutes, and impact on quality of life (QoL) in Involving 434 patients Spain, this observational employed survey based validated assessment tools, alongside demographic, clinical, biochemical data collection. The used statistical analyses examine the correlation between CKD-aP various...
The purpose of this work is to describe a first approach smart bioimpedance spectroscopy device for its application the estimation body composition. proposed capable carrying out measurements in multiple configurable frequencies, processing data obtain modulus and phase each transmitting processed information wirelessly. Another novelty new algorithm identification Cole model parameters, which basis composition through analysis. Against other proposals, main advantages method are robustness...
Las infecciones peritoneales siguen constituyendo una complicación muy relevante de la diálisis peritoneal, por su incidencia todavía elevada y sus importantes consecuencias clínicas, en términos mortalidad, fracaso técnica costes para el sistema sanitario. prácticas prevención tratamiento esta muestran notable heterogeneidad derivada, entre otros factores, complejidad del problema escasez evidencia clínica que permitan responder manera clara a muchas las dudas planteadas. El propósito este...
Pruritus associated with chronic kidney disease is defined as the sensation of itching, in people disease, a one area or all over body that causes need to scratch, after having ruled out other dermatological systemic causes. It an old and known problem whose prevalence has been able decrease improvement dialytic techniques but which still persists underdiagnosed. The objective this study was analyse current perception nephrologists about influences quality life through survey. 135...
Definido como la sensación desagradable que provoca el deseo de rascarse, prurito es síntoma cutáneo más frecuente asociado a uremia, pudiendo aparecer en casi mitad los pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) avanzada. Más allá su repercusión directa sobre calidad vida, ERC (Pa-ERC) un predictor independiente mortalidad además ejerce efecto sinérgico otros síntomas también relacionados depresión y insomnio. Aunque se han propuesto diferentes mecanismos para explicar origen,...
To compare the survival among patients with chronic kidney disease who had optimal starts of renal replacement therapy, dialysis or hemodialysis, suboptimal starts.
El prurito asociado a enfermedad renal crónica se define como la sensación desagradable que provoca necesidad de rascarse en una parte del cuerpo o todo personas con crónica, tras haberse descartado otras causas dermatológicas sistémicas. Es un problema antiguo y conocido cuya prevalencia ha podido disminuir mejoría eficacia dialítica pero todavía persiste está infradiagnosticado. objetivo este estudio fue analizar percepción práctica actual los nefrólogos sobre impacta calidad vida las...
This paper presents the feasibility study of using a distributed approach for management alarms from chronic kidney disease patients. In first place, key issues regarding alarm definition, classification, and prioritization according to available normalization efforts are analyzed main scenarios addressed in hemodialysis. Then, middleware proposed is described, which follows publish/subscribe pattern, supports Object Management Group data distribution service (DDS) standard. standard...
ABSTRACT Background Current guidelines establish the same hemoglobin (Hb) and iron biomarkers targets for hemodialysis (HD) peritoneal dialysis (PD) in patients receiving erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) even though having PD are usually younger, more active less comorbid. Unfortunately, specific renal anemia [anemia chronic kidney disease (aCKD)] trials or observational studies on scanty. The aims of this study were to describe current aCKD management, goals adherence clinical...
The number of elderly patients on renal replacement therapy (RRT) is increasing. survival and quality life these may be lower if they have multiple comorbidities at the onset RRT. aim this study was to explore whether effect similar in RRT compared with younger ones.Included were 9333 ≥80 years age 48 352 20-79 starting between 2010 2015 from 15 national or regional registries submitting data European Renal Association-European Dialysis Transplantation Association Registry. Patients followed...
La peritonitis recidivante en pacientes diálisis peritoneal es una de las complicaciones que ponen riesgo la continuidad técnica. Se asocia a menudo con formación biofilm luz del catéter. Hasta fecha, su retirada sigue siendo única actitud recomendada. Debido sus propiedades antimicrobianas y antifúngicas, se ha utilizado taurolidina para el sellado catéteres vías centrales hemodiálisis. A pesar los buenos resultados obtenidos, no existen datos sobre utilidad peritoneal. presentan 5 casos...
