Abstract

The occurrence of cardiovascular events is 10-30 times higher in hemodialysis patients than in the general population and it is the leading cause of mortality. Based on this problem a descriptive, cross-sectional and prospective study was conducted to describe the cardiovascular risk factors in patients with chronic kidney disease who initiated hemodialysis during the period from January to December 2012 in the Department of Nephrology in “Arnaldo Milián Castro” Universitary Provincial Hospital; population consisted of 63 patients with chronic kidney disease. It concluded with a predominance of male patients, the white skin and aged among 50 and 69 years; diabetic nephropathy was the most common cause of chronic kidney disease; blood hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy and anemia were the cardiovascular risk factors most prevalent in the sample studied and most cardiovascular risk factors occurred more frequently in diabetic patients, except for smoking, which It was the only predominantly in vascular nephropathy.
