Objective:It was aimed to investigate sociodemographic features of chronic kidney disease patients, analyze difference of these features in early and advanced stage patients, find correctable factors that may change course of disease and to find new solutions in treatment and follow-up.
Materials & Methods:Predialysis 345 patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into early and advanced stages. Patients with Glomerular Filtration Rate 30 ml / min were defined as early stage, <30 ml / min as advanced stage. Sociodemographic and disease related features and laboratory parameters of patients were analyzed.
Results:In the study, 243 (70.4%) patients were early stage and 102 (29.6%) patients were advanced stage chronic kidney patients. Most common etiologies are; In early stage, chronic glomerulonephritis (30.5%), diabetes mellitus (16.9%) and genetic diseases (16.0%), while at advanced stage, diabetes mellitus (34.3%), hypertension (16.7%) and unknown causes (15.7%) were. Alcohol use was higher and regular drug use was lower in early stage patients compared to advanced stage patients. In advanced stage patients, habit of exercising regularly was found to be low compared to early stage patients.
Conclusion:It was found that there were correctable factors that could change course of disease. These factors differed in early and advanced stages. It is necessary to be aware of these factors for slower progressive of disease and take precautions for correctable factors from early stages of disease.
