Study of Aortic Stenosis and Calcification in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease treated with Hemodialysis in a Private Clinic in Puebla: Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease whose incidence and prevalence have increased globally, this pathology is associated with multiple morbimortalities, especially in the cardiovascular field (Ewen et al.,2019). This risk rises much more if the disease reaches terminal level with the need for the use of hemodialysis, reaching more than half of these patients with cardiac comorbidities. These cardiovascular complications are extensive, notably coronary heart disease, arrhythmias and valvular diseases that eventually lead to death. We will focus on the latter. In earlier stages, heart valves show calcification and, consequently, stenosis. It is for this reason that, according to Ewen et al. the prognosis of CKD depends on the vitality of the heart valves. Thus, in a patient with end-stage CKD, progression to significant valve destruction occurs 10 times faster than in a person with healthy kidneys. It is for these reasons that the evaluation of valvular disease, especially of the aortic valve, is of utmost importance
