Abstract

Background: Literature suggested that kidney related problems could be due to multi factorial origin from irrational use of more analgesics, long term complications of many non-communicable common diseases like hypertension and Diabetes and we noticed people at early age landed with kidney problems. The objectives of the study are to determine the demographic factors, prevalence of risk factors association with renal failure patients.

Methodology: This was a cross sectional study conducted among the patients visiting to inpatient and outpatient department of Nephrology unit at King Fahad Specialist Hospital and Buraidah central hospital during the period from the September 2021 to December 2022. During the one-year period from September 2021 to November 2022 distributed the questionnaire to 200 patients. Data entered in statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) and descriptive and inferential statistics like regression analysis was performed.

Results: In the present study, the mean age and standard deviation was 53.16 ± 13.29 and 53.6% were males. About 18.6% smoking, 32.9% not practising salt restriction, 39.3% were using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), 52.9% were diabetes mellitus, 81.4% were hypertensives and 25.7% were having cardio vascular disease (CVD). Duration of renal failure was significantly associated with urinary tract infection, smoking and duration of CVD (P<0.05).

Conclusions: Based on the study findings, there is increase prevalence of NSAID use, dyslipidaemia, smoking and uncontrolled status of common co-morbidities. There is a need of community awareness is required and also focus more on existing awareness programs in the population.
