Abstract

Aim. Study of epidemiology and quality of life in patients with terminal renal failure and anemia, receiving program hemodyalisis.
Methods. Results of survey of 1395 patients with terminal renal failure and anemia, receiving program hemodyalisis, were analyzed.
Results. Mean age of patients were 42 years, 20% - >60 years. Main etiological causes of terminal renal failure were chronic glomerulonephritis and chronic pyelonephritis. 84% of patients had chronic kidney disease >2 years, 21,5% - >20 years. Majority of patients had concomitant diseases, 44,5% - visual disturbances. 72,7% had hemoglobin level > 100 g/l, 48,7% - >110 g/l; 26,8 - <100 g/l, 5,3% - < 80 g/l. 5% of patients during previous month received haemotransfusions. 83,5% received erythropoietin medications, predominantly Recormon and Eralfon. In 17 patients Eralfon was displaced by other erythropoietin medications; in 174 other erythropoietin medications were displaced by Eralfon .
Conclusion. Epidemiological characteristics of patients with terminal renal failure and anemia, receiving program hemodyalisis should lead to improvement of their management in routine clinical practice.
