RESUMO

Total 45 patients (male 27 and female 18) of acute renal failure (ARF) admitted in Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital over a period of 12 months (1st of Baisakh 2064 BS to 31st of Chaitra 2064 BS) were enrolled in the study. Sixty four percent of study population were of age group 21-60 years. Acute Gastroenteritis 33, sepsis 5, hemorrhage 2, others 5 were the different causes of ARF. Serum creatinine of the study population before and after treatment was 4.35 +/- 2.72 and 1.38 +/- 0.72 mg/dl respectively. Similarly serum urea before and after treatment was 101.78 +/- 57.56 and 42.60 +/- 30.46 mg/dl respectively. Thirty three patients were managed by non dialytic modality of therapy and 12 patients needed hemodialysis. Blood urea of those patients who underwent nondialytic therapy was significantly less than of those who underwent hemodialysis (80.65 +/- 38.21 vs. 151.08 +/- 66.22; p = 0.004). Serum creatinine was also significantly lower in nondialytic therapy group (3.15 +/- 1.15 vs. 7.64 +/- 3.10; p = 0.000) ARF patients with very high urea, creatinine and disturbed electrolytes required dialysis. Average session of hemodialysis was 3.4. Thirty five patients were cured, 6 left against medical advice, 3 were discharged on request, and one patient of sepsis expired during the course of treatment. Acute gastroenteritis was the leading cause of ARF and outcome was excellent even without dialysis in most of the cases provided the treatment was started early and appropriately.
