Abstract

Introduction: chronic kidney disease is a global health problem, due to its epidemic character and devastating complications. It is one of the leading causes of death in developed countries, without excluding pediatric age groups.

Objective: to describe the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of chronic kidney disease in children treated at the “Hermanos Cordové” Pediatric Hospital in Manzanillo.

Methods: an observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out in 42 patients admitted in the years 2022 and 2023 with the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease in “Hermanos Cordové” Provincial Pediatric Hospital of Manzanillo, Granma. We worked with 100 % of the universe. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis by calculating absolute and relative percentage frequencies.

Results: age older than five years (61,9 %) and male sex (57,1 %) predominated. The main cause of chronic renal failure was vesico-ureteral reflux (33,3 %) and anemia as the most frequent clinical manifestation (52,3 %). Clinical stage II chronic kidney disease was present in 52,4 % of pediatric patients.

Conclusions: chronic kidney disease in pediatric age is a challenge for the medical and scientific community. The male sex is usually the most affected. The main causes of chronic renal failure are reflux and obstructive uropathies. Anemia is the main manifestation and is mainly due to erythropoietin deficiency. Stage II is the most frequent at the time of diagnosis.
