Abstract
ROMERO MERELO, Carolina Carolay; ESTEVES ECHANIQUE, David William; RIOS DELGADO, Luis Aarón and REYES BRAVO, Karl Enrique. Risk factors and cardiovascular complications in patients with phosphorus and calcium disorders. Vive Rev. Salud [online]. 2021, vol.4, n.12, pp.116-126.

Chronic kidney disease is a worldwide public health problem and is defined as a pathological abnormality of the kidney such as hematuria or proteinuria, or a reduction of the glomerular filtration rate to less than 60 ml-min for more than three months. In all studies the prevalence of this disease is increasing because its main causes diabetes and hypertension have become pandemics.
Objective.
To demonstrate the risk factors and cardiovascular complications in patients with mineral and bone alterations.
Methods.
A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in patients of the Instituto del riñón INRIDI San Martin from January to Nov 2019, the research methods implemented were analytical and qualitative-quantitative. The universe was constituted by the 253 patients of the San Martin dialysis clinic, 70 patients were obtained as a sample based on the exclusion criteria. Results:
Results.
It was found that 94.2% of the patients studied were in the group of cases without hypercalcemia, and 58.55% were in the group with hyperphosphatemia. Among the risk factors, the prevalence in the male sex, hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia was demonstrated.
Conclusions
. The frequency of changes in bone and mineral metabolism in patients with CKD is highly variable, and this study reveals epidemiological aspects that allow us to recognize the current problems of the disease that will make it feasible to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events and improve the quality of life of patients.
