Abstract: AbstractObjective To analyze serum calcium, phosphate, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels of dialysis patients in Zhejiang Province in 2011.  Methods We collected these data from hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients in Zhejiang Province in 2011. We then analyzed the compliance rate of serum calcium, phosphorus, iPTH according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline standards. Results The compliance rate of serum calcium, phosphorus and iPTH was 58.1%, 27.2% and 56.3%, respectively, in hemodialysis patients, and was 71.1%, 44.2% and 65.6%, respectively, in peritoneal dialysis patients. Conclusion Serum calcium, phosphorus and iPTH should be carefully monitored and controlled in dialysis patients, especially in hemodialysis patients.
