This study was performed to find out the trends in the demand for regular maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and to assess the utilization with reference to selected variables.
In a retrospective cohort study, data from a single in-center HD unit of a secondary care hospital located in the south-western part of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, were analyzed.
Cases of endstage renal failure (ESRF) registered for regular maintenance HD from the commencement of the HD services in this center (1987 to 2000) formed the subjects of this study.
Utilization of the incenter HD was assessed by annual growth rate, death rate, renal transplantation rate and utilization rate.
Simple descriptive statistics were used for data analysis.
During the study period, 393 cases were registered for regular maintenance HD.
There were 183 males (46.6 %) and 210 females (53.4 %).
The mean and median ages of the patients at the initiation of HD were 40.7 and 35 years respectively.
Saudis constituted 75.1 % (295) over the years studied.
The mean annual growth rate, death rate, renal transplantation rate and utilization rate were 7.44, 9.3, 4.33 and 139.57 % respectively.
Demand for maintenance HD was more from young individuals, which is similar to the national figures.
Annual growth rate of those requiring HD was far higher than population growth of this region during the period of study caused primarily by an increased number of new entries coupled with low death and transplantation rates.
We conclude that HD utilization studies help to unearth the problems, understand the needs, communicate with the authorities (with facts and figures), find out solutions, and create a network between providers and consumers.
