Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a common complication among patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). They represent the leading cause of mortality in hemodialysis patients. In a resource-limited setting, our objective was to assess echocardiographic aspects in chronic hemodialysis patients through a case series study conducted over a 24-month period, from January 2019 to December 2020. We included all patients who had been undergoing iterative hemodialysis sessions for at least 6 months and had undergone at least one cardiac ultrasound in the nephrology department. In total, 79 patients were enrolled, with an average age of 47.5 years and a sex ratio of 0.93. Hypertension (HTN) was observed in 84.8% of patients, and obesity was present in 39.2%. The main structural abnormalities included left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in 64.6% of cases and dilatation in 36.7% of cases. Left atrial (LA) and right atrial (RA) dilatations were observed in 36.7% and 15.2% of cases, respectively. Cardiac valve lesions observed were primarily calcifications. Echocardiography, a readily accessible non-invasive medical imaging technique, revealed a high prevalence of LVH and signs of inadequate dialysis in our population.
