Marcadores predictivos de daño renal secundaria a diabetes mellitus en pacientes mayores de 25 años en el Hospital General Guasmo Sur durante el 2019-2020.

Abstract

Introduction: Patients with diabetes mellitus are at high risk of kidney involvement, diabetic nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy is a disease in which high levels of glycemia incite dysfunction in various factors of kidney cells, leading to progressive kidney failure. In the early stages of Chronic Kidney Disease, the clinical manifestations are minimal and the diagnosis may be suggested. due to the presence of nonspecific manifestations on the part of the patient, however, the presence of this entity should be established based on the markers of altered kidney damage or the decrease in the level of kidney function, depending on the value of glomerular filtration (GF), all added to the appearance of alterations in the clinical evaluation of the patient. Objective: To identify the different predictive markers of kidney damage secondary to diabetes mellitus in patients over 25 years of age at Hospital General Guasmo Sur during the year 2019-2020. Materials and Methods: The work carried out is an observational, analytical, cross-sectional study. The information was collected through a review of medical records and statistical data of patients admitted to the internal medicine service in both the Emergency and External Consultation areas with diabetes mellitus diagnosis. Results: The results obtained from the project were that, of all the diabetic patients, 51% had chronic kidney disease, being able to demonstrate this due to all the markers studied, since non-normal ranges were obtained that confirmed chronic kidney disease. Conclusions: This review was carried out to analyze the different predictive markers of kidney damage in diabetic patients. Eligibility criteria were specified, medical records registered in the database and in the system corresponding to the study site were searched.
