Article Synopsis
- Chronic kidney disease is placing a strain on dialysis services, with unclear global prevalence data; this study aims to assess the epidemiological profile of patients undergoing renal replacement therapy in Paraíba from 2009 to 2013.
- The research, based on a large dataset, identifies trends such as a higher prevalence of dialysis requests among males and whites and highlights that many patients rely on hemodialysis without the ideal vascular access.
- It also shows rising treatment costs, indicating that renal replacement therapy expenses increased from 2.89% to 3.32% of state health spending during the observation period.
