[Chronic renal failure's profile in hemodialysis at the Edith Lucie Bongo Ondimba General Hospital].

Introduction: Our was to evaluate the management of chronic renal failure in hemodialysis at the Edith Lucie Bongo Ondimba General Hospital (HGELBO).

Materials And Methods: This was a cross-sectional and analytical study over a 10-month period from March 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. This included all patients aged 16 and over whohad at least one treatment session hemodialysis during the study period. The sociodemographic, clinical, biological, therapeutic and evolutionaryparameters of the patients werenoted. And data entry wasdoneusing Excel 2013 and EPI Infos version 3 software with a p <0.05 consideredstatisticallysignificant.

Results: The number of patients hospitalized for chronic and acute renal failurein 10 months was 101 patients, of whom 97 received hemodialysis treatment. The sex ratio was 1.4 with 59% males. The meanagewas 49.19 ± 28.4 years. The most affected intervalisbetween 50 and 59 years old with 19 patients or 29.68%. The patients came from Brazzaville in 60.93%. The first indication of hemodialysis wasuremiapoorlytoleratedin 81, 25% of cases. Diabeticnephropathywas the leading cause of CKD in hemodialysis. Meanserumcreatinine at initiation of hemodialysis was128.5 ± 75.12 mg / l. The incidence of HIV in hemodialysis is 6.4%, those of hepatitis B and C are 1.25% respectively. There were 54 patients (84.37%) whobenefited from femoralcatheter placement at baseline. We have so far 7 deaths out of 64 patients.

Conclusion: This center of hemodialysis contributes to the improvement of the management of the renal insufficiency in the stage of hemodialysis. The assessment of this work reveals strong and weak points and we are consideringother work, more hemodialysis stations and itwould be interesting to do some work on the prevalence of renal disease in the Republic of Congo.
