Association of hemodialysis and pruritus in chronic renal failure

Background and aim: Pruritus is a common disabling problem in patients with end stage renal disease. Several studies has recorded the relation between pruritus with hemodialysis in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis on pruritus of patients with CRF.Materials and Methods: After recording the demographic data and the diagnosis of d...

Etiology of Chronic Renal Failure in Children and Lnfants

Chronic renal failure is an uncommon disease in children with some difference in the etiology in different countries. In this study on 180 children (From 1987 to 1997 in Shiraz) with age range of 3 months to 15 years (mean 8.6±4.2 years). The male to female ratio was 1. 57: 1. The etiology of chronic renal failure in decreasing order of frequency were: reflux nephropathy (25 % ) , glbmerular di...

Heterogeneity due to The well established concept that hypertension is a the stage of the disease, its severity, organ complicarisk factor for death both in the general population tion, comorbid conditions etc., together with exclusion and in dialysis patients has recently been questioned of the patients with major complications from the trial, by independen...

Effect of dialysis on bleeding time in chronic renal failure.

Renal failure is associated with severe haemorrhagic complications. Platelets play an important role in coagulation and their dysfunction may be responsible for the bleeding tendency in these patients. Sixty patients with advanced renal failure were investigated for bleeding tendency due to platelet dysfunction. The pre-dialysis platelet count was 46 to 325 x 10(9)/L) (mean 166 x 10(9)/L). Post...
