Abstract:

【Abstract】Objective To investigate and analyze the morbidity rates and factors relating to cardiovascular complications in maintenance hemodialysis patients in Henan province. Methods We collected 3278 maintenance hemodialysis patients from 17 cities in Henan province within the period from June 2006 to December 2007. We investigated and analyzed ① their general clinical data and hemodialysis parameters, ② the incidence of cardiovascular complications including left ventricular hypertrophy, heart muscle ischemia and congestive heart failure, and ③ the factors possibly relating to cardiovascular complications including renal anemia, hypertension and insufficient dialysis. Results In these patients, the incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy was 58.49%, and that of heart muscle ischemia 39.82%, congestive heart failure 29.61%, arrhythmia 22.58%, coronary artery disease 18.43%, and hydropericardium 17.54%. The incidence of cardiovascular complications was significantly higher in patients with renal anemia, hypertension and insufficient dialysis than those without anemia and hypertension and with adequate dialysis. Conclusion The morbidity rate of cardiovascular complications was high in maintenance hemodialysis patients in Henan province. Renal anemia, hypertension and insufficient dialysis were the important risk factors for the complication of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, prevention and management of cardiovascular complications and their related factors are important measures in improving their living quality.
