Introduction:
Studies have shown that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common among adults in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that 30 million people, or 15% of US adults, are estimated to have CKD. Forty-eight percent of those with severely reduced kidney function are not aware of having CKD, and therefore do not receive hemodialysis (HD).
Methods:
A nationwide inpatient sample database from 2012-2014 was used to identify all patients admitted to the hospital using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes (n= 534,845). Patients with dialysis dependent CKD (n=8,100) and CKD without dialysis (n=51,285) were compared to non-CKD patients (n=475,460). Hierarchical logistic regression was performed and p
Results:
Of the 534,845 patients, 88.9% were without CKD and 9.59% had CKD without HD and 1.51% had CKD with HD. Among patients with CKD, 13.64% were on HD and 86.34% were non-HD patients. The result shows that a higher proportion of patients with CKD without HD in the ≥ 80 years age group (≥ 80 = 37.84%, 65-79 = 36.94%, 50-64 = 20.80%, 35-49 = 4.12% and 18-34 = 0.30%) and a higher proportion of patients with CKD with HD in the 65-79 years age (≥ 80 = 16.30%, 65-79 = 41.79%, 50-64 = 33.09%, 35-64 = 8.09% and 18-34 = 1.29%). The OR of age group 18-34 compared to ≥ 80 is 5.690, 95% CI: 4.202,7.705, OR 35-49 is 4.552, 95% CI: 4.552, 95% CI: 4.103, 5.050, OR of 50-64 is 3.693, 95% CI: 3.444, 3.961 and OR 65-79 is 2.626, 95% CI: 2.457, 2.807. Males had higher rates of CKD than females, without HD (Male= 63.12%, female= 36.88%, p
Conclusion:
From this study, males had higher rates of CKD with and without HD than females, the age group ≥ 80 years had higher proportion of CKD without HD and those between 65-79 years had higher number of CKD with HD. Whites had higher rates of CKD with and without HD than other races.
