AIM: To study various co-morbidities among hemodialysis patients. OBJECTIVES: To assess renal function by measuring serum creatinine, urinary Creatinine and blood urea and to evaluate the co morbidities among dialysis patients. METHODS: The sample population (n=20) was chosen from one of the Hospital of Hyderabad. All the patients were of different age groups, sex, Biochemical parameters, food frequencies and with different co-morbidities. A format consisting of patient profile, subjective data, objective data, biochemical data and 24 hr recall followed during hospital stay RESULTS: Among 20 subjects the study identified the co morbidities of hemodialysis patients. Hypertension and anemia are the major co morbidities for dialysis patients The bio marker studies showed a higher risk in age group of 41-50 years and mostly in males. Majority of the patients are with elevated serum creatinine, urea and low hemoglobin. CONCLUSION: From the above results, it is very clear that Hypertension and Anemia are the major co morbidities and seen mostly in the age group of 41-50 among dialysis patients. And associated with elevated renal and blood biochemical parameters. Other co morbidities includes Diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, renal calculi, pyelonephrities.
