Evaluation of echocardiographic abnormalities in children with end-stage renal disease (CKD stage 5): A single-center experience

Chronic Kidney disease (CKD) stage V might gradually induce the occurrence of morphological and functional cardiac disturbances; these cardiac disturbances make up supplementary risk factors. The study aimed to describe electrocardiographic (ECG) and Echocardiographic (Echo) findings in dialysis pat...

Description
Summary:Chronic Kidney disease (CKD) stage V might gradually induce the occurrence of morphological and functional cardiac disturbances; these cardiac disturbances make up supplementary risk factors. The study aimed to describe electrocardiographic (ECG) and Echocardiographic (Echo) findings in dialysis patients. Also, to define the correlation between Echo findings and dialysis modality. We studied 27 dialysis patients aged 3 years and one month to 25 years (163 ± 77 months. Boys accounted for 59.3 % of the patients. The modality of dialysis was peritoneal dialysis (PD) in 33.3 % and hemodialysis (HD) in 51.9 % of cases. Four patients (14.8 %) had undergone both modalities at different times. All patients were taken ECG and Doppler 2D echocardiography (Echo). Assessment of LV systolic function was done according to ejection fraction (EF) and categorized as normal (≥55 %), mild systolic dysfunction (45–54 %), moderate systolic dysfunction (30–44 %), and severe systolic dysfunction (
