... data analysis showed that men who had chronic kidney failure due to hypertension or diabetes had a higher incidence of women. Chi-square test was used to compare the frequency of males and females in each group, which did not show a statistically significant difference (P = 0.176) (Table 1). ...

Hemodialysis has a therapeutic effect on patients with chronic renal failure. However, on the other hand, it can also cause acute complications that can negatively affect the quality of life. Acute complications can be prevented by changing the lifestyle of hemodialysis patients, one of which is by using audio-visual aids. This study aims to determ...

... Unlike the study conducted by Hu [8], it is said that there were no significant differences in age found between patients with pruritus and patients without itching, though they were significant. According to research conducted by Vardanjani [12], the most common causes of idiopathic kidney failure are diabetes and hypertension. In the Vardanjani study [12], there was a significant relationship between work status and chronic kidney failure in hemodialysis patients. ...
... According to research conducted by Vardanjani [12], the most common causes of idiopathic kidney failure are diabetes and hypertension. In the Vardanjani study [12], there was a significant relationship between work status and chronic kidney failure in hemodialysis patients. The researchers say that patients with kidney failure treated with hemodialysis are unable to work in daily office positions due to fatigue, too much contact with disease, and bloodwashing processes, and usually switch to freelance work and eventually become unemployed. ...

Patients with hypertension and diabetes are at risk of developing chronic kidney failure. A common occurrence in patients with chronic kidney disease is pruritus. Pruritus can affect all parts of the body, which can have an emotional impact on the patient, affect the quality of sleep and mood of the patient, and cause discomfort. The study's goal was to determine whether there was a long-term link between hemodialysis and the onset of pruritus among patients with chronic renal failure who were receiving hemodialysis. Quantitative research with the cross-sectional method A total of 45 patients are in the RSI Sultan Agung Semarang Hemodialisa Unit, Central Java, Indonesia. The instrument in this study was the 5D pruritus scale. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 24. The Spearman rank test was conducted to test the relationship between two variables of the study, namely the duration of hemodialysis and the occurrence of pruritus. The study was conducted in April–June 2022, along with the ethical test. The results of the study obtained a p value of 0.004≤0.05, which means there is a relationship between long-term hemodialysis and the occurrence of pruritus in patients with chronic kidney failure. In conducting treatment, it is important to pay attention to basic needs and comfort, as well as implement pruritus management.
... These findings indicate that female population in Bhutan may be at increased risk of ESRD than her male counterpart. A similar findings were reported from many studies conducted in the region 13,15,16 whereas in Bangladesh 14 , the findings were opposite with male predominance. However, in one study no differences in sex was found 14 . ...
... Regarding the age distribution of ESRD in the population, the mean age of the patients were found similar to that of previous studies conducted in the regions [12][13][14][15][16] . Prevalence of high ESRD in middle age population was linked to the fact that overall renal function deteriorates with advancing age 11 . ...
... A small minority of ESRD patients were also found in younger age group. A similar findings were also reported from Nepal 13 , Bangladesh 14 and Iran 15 . The aetiologies of ESRD in younger age groups were mostly unexplained, which warrant further studies 6,8 . ...

Introduction: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is a late stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD) requiring chronic dialysis or renal transplant to survive. End stage renal disease is a growing problem worldwide. In Bhutan too, there are anecdotal evidence showing increasing number of ESRD patients every year, which has become a cause of serious concern for the country. Methods: This retrospective descriptive study was conducted at the National Referral Hospital of Bhutan, from 2019 to 2020 to find out the aetiology of ESRD in the country. The demographic information and aetiology of ESRD were collected from the past record of the patients. A total of 202 eligible ESRD patients were enrolled in this study. Results: The study showed that the mean age of patients was 47.3 ±13.20 years. The majority of the patients 139 (68.8%) were in the age group 24-60 years. Of the total patients, 107 (53.0%) were females. The common aetiologies of ESRD were hypertension (HTN), chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN) and Diabetes Mellitus (DM) constituting 20.8%, 12.9%, and 8.9% of the total patients respectively. In 50.0% of the patients, the aetiology of ESRD were unexplained. Conclusions: The most common aetiologies of ESRD were HTN (20.8%), CGN (12.9%) and DM (8.9%); in 50.0% of the patients, the aetiologies remained unexplained. The majority of ESRD patients (68.8%) in this study were from middle age group, with female predominance (53.0%).
