    Etude épidémiologique des patients dialysés à l’hôpital TIRICHINE Brahim de la wilaya de Ghardaia
    (Faculté Science de la Nature et de la Vie et Sciences de la Terre - Université de Ghardaïa, 2024) BELHADADJI, Nadjet; MAASKRI, Benyaagoub
    This study evaluates the epidemiological profile of dialysis patients at TIRICHINE Brahim Hospital in Ghardaia over seven years (2017-2023). Among 843 cases, 61% are men and 38% are women. Patients aged over 58 years represent 29% of those on dialysis, while young adults (19-28 years) make up 15%. An increase in hemodialysis sessions is observed among patients over 58 years old. The main underlying conditions include diabetic nephropathy (15%) and hypertension (19%), with a notable prevalence of hyperparathyroidism and anemia. Mortality and transplant rates remain low, highlighting ongoing challenges. Hemodialysis is used in 96% of patients, and the study underscores the necessity of a national registry to improve the management of end-stage chronic renal failure in Ghardaia
