Abstract:Objective To analyze the clinical date and prognosis of MHD patients in our hemodialysis center.Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of MHD patients treated for more than 3 months in the blood purification center, the fifth affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medicial University, during January 2013 to October 2018. Gender, age, dialysis vintage, primary renal disease, vascular access type, blood pressure, blood biochemical index, spKt/V, cause of death, survival rate, and risk factors were analyzed. All related data were collected through the Chinese National Renal Data System.Results A total of 209 patients were recruited, 124 were males and 85 were females. The average age was (61.81 ± 13.33) years, and the median dialysis age was 40.50 (27.50, 62.00) months. The top 3 primary causes of ESRD were diabetic nephropathy (39.23%), glomerulonephritis (30.14%), and hypertensive nephrosclerosis (10.53%). Cuffed-tunneled catheters accounted for 26.79%, artificial blood vessels were used in 2 cases. The average level of hemoglobin (Hb) was (100.13 ± 21.01) g/L, the rate of Hb compliance was 25.83%, according to the standard of Hb between 110 to 120 g/L. The rates achieved to the recommended levels of blood calcium, blood phosphorus and iPTH were 56.46%, 52.15% and 43.10% respectively. The mean systolic blood pressure before dialysis was (148.17 ± 19.84) mmHg. During the follow-up period, 70 cases died (33.49%), of which 19.62% died of cardiovascular diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular incidences were the leading causes of death, the second cause of death is infection. The survival rate of MHD patients was different: 99.5% in one year,83.5% in three years, and 60.2% in five years. Cox regression analysis showed that the use of long-term central venous catheter [O^R =2.314 (95% CI: 1.269, 3.590)], spKt / V ≥ 1.2 [O^R =0.482 (95% CI: 0.204, 0.820) ] and phosphorus binder [O^R =0.405 (95% CI: 0.227, 0.720)] were independent risk factors for all-cause death (P < 0.05). Age > 60 years [O^R =2.824 (95% CI: 1.313, 6.072)], use of long-term central venous catheter [O^R =2.120 (95% CI: 1.043, 4.306)], pre-dialysis systolic blood pressure> 145 mmHg [O^R =3.547 (95% CI: 1.626, 3.399)], spKt / V ≥ 1.2[O^R =0.356 (95% CI: 1.172, 0.732)] were independent risk factors for cardiovascular death (P < 0.05).Conclusions In our dialysis center, the etiology of maintenance hemodialysis patients is mainly diabetic nephropathy and chronic glomerulonephritis. The utilization rate of arteriovenous fistula is low. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are the main cause of death in maintenance hemodialysis patients. There is still a certain gap in dialysis adequacy and survival rate compared with developed countries or regions. In the process of treatment, in addition to paying attention to hemodialysis, we should also actively explore the risk factors of patients' death, analyze and intervene to reduce the mortality of patients.
