About

Incidence of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) amongst elderly patient group is continuously increasing with population aging progressing. Mineral and bone disorder (MBD) is a common complication caused by ESRD, it raises the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in hemodialysis patients, as well as mortality.

Joint effects of Kidney failure and aging on elderly hemodialysis patients make the contribution factors of CKD-MBD quite complex, and it also leads to differences in clinic manifestation between elderly hemodialysis patients and non-elderly hemodialysis patients. Since not much studies had been done for this specific subject, thus, research on elderly patients who is taking Maintenance hemodialysis is very necessary. This study is a retrospective research to identify optimized target value of Calcium and Phosphorus for elderly patients taking maintenance hemodialysis and hence provide guidance for clinical practices. The data for this study will be provided by Beijing Blood Purification Quality Control and Improvement Center. Clinical files and Calcium and Phosphorus metabolic indices will be collected amongst elderly patients who were elder than 65 years and was taking maintenance hemodialysis between Jan 1st, 2012 through Dec 31st, 2016. Relationship between Calcium level, Phosphorus level, iPTH index, all-cause mortality and CVD caused mortality will be analyzed to identify optimized range of target Calcium levels, Phosphorus level for hemodialysis treatment
