Mortality of hemodialysis patients is associated with their clinical situation at the start of treatment.

Introduction: Previous reports have shown very high mortality among hemodialyisis patients. Our goal was to analyze the mortality of patients in the Renal Registry of Patients who remained exclusively on hemodialysis treatment.

Methods: The cohort of patients who started treatment in the community of Castilla-La Mancha between 2010 and 2012 and remained on hemodialysis treatment was analysed until the end of 2017.

[Results of the cooperative study of Spanish peritoneal dialysis registries: analysis of 12 years of follow-up].

Introduction And Objectives: There is currently no registry that gives a complete and overall view of the peritoneal dialysis (PD) situation in Spain. However, a report on PD in Spain was developed for various conferences and meetings over several years from data provided by each registry in the autonomous communities and regions. The main objective of this study is to analyse this data in aggregate and comparatively to obtain a representative sample of the Spanish population on PD in recent years, in order that analysis and results in terms of demographic data, penetration of the technique, geographical differences, incidence and prevalence, technical aspects, intermediate indicators, comorbidity, and outcomes such as patient and technique survival may be extrapolated to the whole country.
