Abstract:
The purpose of this research is to evaluate potential risk factors and its correlation with probability of dying and frequency of hemodialysis from the first treatment among hemodialysed patients in hemodialysis center in Penang, Malaysia and Jakarta, Indonesia. A cohort prospective study was conducted in this research. Universal sampling were used to select 178 and 78 patients who had been followed for 9 months in Hemodialysis Center in Jakarta and Penang, respectively. Cox regression was used to analyze probability of dying among these patients. In HD center Jakarta, Indonesia, 47 hemodialysed patients had cardiovascular disease while 4 of 8 of those patients who had duration of having cardiovascular disease less than 5 years died during study and rest of them had duration of having cardiovascular disease more than 6 years with 95% Cl 1.29-4.43, P = 0.006. In a HD center in Penang, Malaysia, 28 hemodialysed patients had cardiovascular disease and only 4 of them died during the stud
y and all of them had duration of having cardiovascular disease more than 6 years with 95% Cl 0.64-6.34, P = 0.23. In this study, only duration of having cardiovascular disease showed significant relationship with probability of dying among hemodialysed patients in Jakarta, Indonesia.
