Abstract

Introduction: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a condition of decreased kidney function with GFR < 60 ml/minute per 1.73 m2 which occurs within 3 months. The global prevalence of CKD in 2017 reached 9.1% or 697.5 million cases in the world where women were 9.5% and men 7.3% cases and 1.2 million cases of death. In Indonesia, according to Riskesdas in 2013, the prevalence of CKD increases with age, with men at 0.3% while women at 0.2%. Comorbidity is known to increase the risk of death in CKD patients on hemodialysis. In this study, the comorbidities taken included hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, stroke, and urinary tract infections. This study aims to determine and analyze the relationship of comorbid risk factors to the mortality of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Methods: This research is an analytic observational with a case control design. The subjects of this study were end-stage CKD patients with hemodialysis in RSUD dr. Moewardi in 2017-2021 with a total of 150 samples. Sampling using purposive sampling method based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data analysis used statistical software application SPSS 22 with chi-square test as bivariate analysis.

Results: Univariate analysis showed that age 51-60 years were the most experienced group with CKD, namely 64 people (42.67%). Women are more likely to experience CKD than men. The most comorbid that appeared in the case group (died) was UTI (Urine Tract Infection) with a total of 40 people (53.33%) followed by hypertension as many as 31 people (41.33%), diabetes mellitus as many as 24 people (32%), heart failure as many as 16 people (21.33%), and stroke as many as 16 people (21.33%). Bivariate analysis using the chi-square test showed that there was a significant relationship between comorbid hypertension (P = 0.038; OR = 2.077), diabetes mellitus (P = 0.037; OR = 2,244), heart failure (P = 0.041; OR = 2.634), stroke (P = 0.021; OR = 3.119), and urinary tract infections (P = 0.049; OR = 1.918) on the mortality of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Multivariate analysis using logistic regression showed that there was no factor that had the most influence on mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis.

Conclusion: Risk factors for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, stroke, and urinary tract infections have a significant relationship with the mortality rate of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Other factors that influence the mortality of CKD patients on hemodialysis are older age and female gender.
