RESUMO

Introduction: L'hyperparathyroïdie secondaire est une complication grave de l'insuffisance rénale chronique, ayant un impact négatif sur la morbi-mortalité. La parathyroïdectomie trouve toute son indication en cas d'échec du traitement médical. Le but de cette étude était de partager notre expérience dans la prise en charge de l'hyperparathyroïdie secondaire et de présenter les caractéristiques démographiques, biochimiques, cliniques et thérapeutiques des patients opérés dans notre service. Matériels et Méthodes : Etude d'une série de cas consécutifs opérés entre janvier 2002 et décembre 2013. Etaient inclus tous les patients ayant présenté une hyperparathyroïdie secondaire prouvée biologiquement et remplissant les critères d'opérabilité. Résultats : La série était composée de 69 patients (35 femmes, 34 hommes). La moyenne d'âge était de 37,7 ±13 ans. Le tableau clinique était dominé par les signes osseux et cutanés. En préopératoire, la valeur moyenne de la PTH était de 1727 ± 1380,10 pg/mL et celle de la calcémie de 2,39 ± 0,28 mmol/L. Sur le plan chirurgical, la parathyroïdectomie était subtotale chez 60 patients (87%) et totale chez 9 patients (13%) dont 7 avec auto transplantation et 2 sans autotransplantation. En post opératoire, la valeur de la PTH avait baissé significativement par rapport à la valeur préopératoire (p<0,01). Conclusion : Les résultats de cette étude suggèrent que la parathyroïdectomie entre les mains d'experts est un moyen efficace pour réduire la sécrétion de PTH avec une faible morbi-mortalité dans le cadre de l'hyperparathyroïdie secondaire réfractaire au traitement médical

RESUMO

Background: Conforming to the 2016 World Kidney Day focus on raising awareness of the early detection of kidney diseases in children, we report on factors that contribute to primary caregiver delay in presenting their children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) for medical care in Kumasi, Ghana.Aim: The objective of the study was to explore and describe the factors that contribute to primary caregiver delay in presenting children with CKD for medical care in Kumasi, Ghana.Setting: The study was conducted in the Paediatric Renal Unit in Kumasi, Ghana.Methods: A qualitative study was conducted in January 2017. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data from a convenience sample of 10 primary caregivers whose children were admitted for CKD, but were not too ill. The primary caregivers had to respond to the research question: What factors contribute to your delay in presenting your child with CKD for medical care? Thematic data analysis and the ecological model of Schneider (2017) were used to organise the findings.Results: Four themes and related subthemes, including intrapersonal-related factors, interpersonal-related factors, community-related factors and infrastructural factors were identified as those that contribute to delay in presenting children with CKD for medical care.Conclusion: The findings show that primary prevention strategies for CKD in children should not only focus on personal-related factors but also cut across all levels of the socio-ecological model in order for them to be effective

RESUMO

An epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is being experienced in South Africa. This is driven by a heavy burden of infections, non-communicable diseases, pregnancy-related diseases and injuries. The serious long-term complications of CKD include end-stage renal disease, heart disease and stroke. Competing priorities such as the high burden of HIV, tuberculosis and other infections, unemployment and poverty result in serious constraints to providing comprehensive renal care, especially in the public healthcare sector. The prevention and early detection of CKD by primary care practitioners is therefore of utmost importance. Annual screening is recommended for patients at high risk of developing CKD. This involves checking blood pressure, urine dipstick testing for albuminuria or proteinuria and estimating the glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine concentrations. In patients with established CKD, renoprotective measures are indicated to arrest or slow down the loss of renal function. These patients are at high risk of cardiovascular disease and close attention should be paid to optimally managing their risk factors

RESUMO

Introduction: the burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing worldwide. Few studies in low and low-middle income countries have estimated the prevalence of CKD. We aimed to estimate prevalence and factors associated with CKD among medical inpatients at the largest referral hospital in Kenya.Methods: we conducted a cross-sectional study among medical inpatients at the Kenyatta National Hospital. We used systematic random sampling and collected demographic information, behavioural risk factors, medical history, underlying conditions, laboratory and imaging workup using a structured questionnaire. We estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in ml/min/1.73m2 classified into 5 stages; G1 (≥ 90), G2 (60-89), G3a (45-59), G3b (30-44), G4 (15-29) and G5 (<15, or treated by dialysis/renal transplant). Ethical approval was obtained from Kenyatta National Hospital-University of Nairobi Ethics and Research Committee (KNH-UoN ERC), approval number P510/09/2017. We estimated prevalence of CKD and used logistic regression to determine factors independently associated with CKD diagnosis.Results: we interviewed 306 inpatients; median age 40.0 years (IQR 24.0), 162 (52.9%) were male, 155 (50.7%) rural residents. CKD prevalence was 118 patients (38.6%, 95% CI 33.3-44.1); median age 42.5 years (IQR 28.0), 74 (62.7%) were male, 64 (54.2%) rural residents. Respondents with CKD were older than those without (difference 4.4 years, 95% CI 3.7-8.4 years, P = 0.032). Fifty-six (47.5%) of the patients had either stage G1 or G2, 17 (14.4%) had end-stage renal disease; 64 (54.2%) had haemoglobin below 10g/dl while 33 (28.0%) had sodium levels below 135 mmol/l. ); history of unexplained anaemia (aOR 1.80, 95% CI 1.02-3.19), proteinuria (aOR 5.16, 95% CI 2.09-12.74), hematuria (aOR 7.68, 95% CI 2.37-24.86); hypertension (aOR 2.71, 95% CI 1.53-4.80) and herbal medications use (aOR 1.97, 95% CI 1.07-3.64) were independently associated with CKD.Conclusion: burden of CKD was high among this inpatient population. Haematuria and proteinuria can aid CKD diagnosis. Public awareness on health hazards of herbal medication use is necessary

RESUMO

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is on the rise globally due to the increase in prevalence of common risk factors. Screening for CKD risk factors is important for early detection and institution of measures to retard its progression. This study aimed to determine the markers of CKD and its risk factors in a selected population.Methods: A cross sectional study of 510 individuals who were recruited during the 2013 world kidney day activities. History, clinical examination as well as the collection of urine and blood samples was performed on each participant to determine the presence of CKD and its risk factors. CKD markers were defined as the presence of proteinuria and or an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of < 60ml/min.Results: The mean age of the participants was 39±11 years with majority of them being females (64.7%). Hypertension was present in 256 (50.2%) while diabetes mellitus was seen in 27 (5.29%). Forty three individuals (8.4%) had proteinuria while the prevalence of CKD markers was 10.5%. Only age, (OR =1.03; 95% CI: 1.01-1.06) was found to be a factor independently associated with the development of CKD. Conclusion: Though the prevalence of the traditional risk factors for CKD was high, only age was found to be independently associated with CKD markers.Screening exercise is encouraged for the early detection of CKD markers with a view to mitigating their impact

RESUMO

Introduction: la maladie rénale chronique constitue un véritable problème mondial de santé publique du fait de l'augmentation de ses principaux facteurs de risque à savoir l'hypertension artérielle et le diabète sucré. Dans nos milieux à faible revenu et spécialement dans notre pays, peu d'études sont connues sur cette pathologie diagnostiquée à un stade très avancée et posant un problème de prise en charge.Méthodes: il s'agit d'une étude descriptive transversale ayant été menée durant la période allant de juillet 2014 à juillet 2015 au service de dialyse de CMDC. Ont été inclus tous les patients avec taux de filtration glomérulaire inférieur à 60ml/min/1,73 m2 ou créatinine élevée au-delà de trois mois durant notre période d'étude L'objectif de cette étude est de décrire les caractéristiques sociodémographiques, les facteurs de risque et les paramètres biologiques de patients reçus pour insuffisance rénale.Résultats: nous avons retenu 60 patients. L'âge moyen était de 51, 38+/-13, 47 ans avec la tranche d'âge la plus touchée comprise entre 50-59 ans. 51, 67% avaient un niveau d'instruction secondaire et 40% un niveau supérieur. Les facteurs de risque d'atteinte rénale étaient l' HTA 66, 64%, le diabète sucré 25%, l'usage des produits nephrotoxiques 35%, l'infection à VIH 11, 67%, l'obésité 10%, la drépanocytose 3, 3%. Le poids de naissance de naissance de nos patients ainsi que l'existence d'une maladie rénale familiale étaient des facteurs méconnus.85% de nos patients avaient un taux d'hémoglobine inférieur à 12g%.Conclusion: de cette observation, il ressort que l'âge de nos patients ne diffère pas de celui observé dans les autres milieux à revenu faible. Le niveau d'instruction de nos patients est plus élevé comparé aux autres études. Il serait mieux de développer des stratégies de dépistage précoce de la maladie rénale pour éviter d'aboutir à l'hémodialyse qui reste un traitement très onéreux

RESUMO

L'insuffisance renale chronique est une maladie progressive et longtemps silencieuse. Elle necessite au stade terminal; un traitement de suppleance par dialyse ou transplantation renale. Dans pres de 30% de cas; la prise en charge de l'insuffisance renale chronique se fait a un stade terminal; dans un contexte d'urgence avec risque de deces en l'absence de prise en charge specialisee de nephrologie ou de reanimation (disposant de structures adaptees) [3]. Il existe pourtant a l'heure actuelle; des moyens considerables pour ralentir la progression de l'insuffisance renale chronique; par une meilleure prise en charge de certaines pathologies; comme l'HTA et le diabete; mais aussi de certaines maladies glomerulaires revelees par une proteinurie [5;8]. Ainsi le depistage de l'insuffisance renale chronique a un stade precoce est un objectif essentiel de sante publique [7]
