Five-year survival analysis and predictors of mortality of adult hemodialysis patients in Indonesia: a nationwide database analysis.

Background: Hemodialysis (HD) is the modality of renal replacement therapy (RRT) with the highest mortality rate. The identification of prognostic factors will help achieve better outcomes among HD patients. In this study, we sought to conduct a survival analysis and determine the predictors of mortality among adult Indonesian HD patients using data obtained from Indonesian Renal Registry (IRR).

Supporting dialysis policy for end stage renal disease (ESRD) in Indonesia: an updated cost-effectiveness model.

Objective: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and hemodialysis (HD) are main modalities for end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, and those have been covered by National Health Insurance (NHI) scheme since 2014 in Indonesia. This study aims to update the cost-effectiveness model of CAPD versus HD in Indonesia setting.

Results: Compared to HD, CAPD provides good value for money among ESRD patients in Indonesia.

The Association of Kidney Function Monitoring Adherence and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Changes Among Patients At-Risk for Chronic Kidney Disease.

Background: Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome in 2012 has provided recommendations to prevent CKD progression by monitoring kidney function periodically according to the CKD stage and the clinician's adherence to these guidelines is important. This is the first study on the relationship between adherence to monitoring renal function and changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients at risk for CKD in Indonesia.

Methods: This study was a comparative observational study with a cross-sectional approach.

Risk factors of latent tuberculosis among chronic kidney disease with routine haemodialysis patients.

Introduction: Since immune system alteration occurs, chronic kidney disease (CKD) on routine haemodialysis (HD) patients have a greater risk for latent tuberculosis (LTB). LTB needs special attention so that it does not develop into an active form, because infection in CKD patients increases the mortality. This study aims to determine the risk factors that associated with LTB among CKD on routine HD patients.

Economic evaluation of policy options for dialysis in end-stage renal disease patients under the universal health coverage in Indonesia.

Objectives: This study aims to assess the value for money and budget impact of offering hemodialysis (HD) as a first-line treatment, or the HD-first policy, and the peritoneal dialysis (PD) first policy compared to a supportive care option in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in Indonesia.

Methods: A Markov model-based economic evaluation was performed using local and international data to quantify the potential costs and health-related outcomes in terms of life years (LYs) and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). Three policy options were compared, i.
