Overview
- The incidence and prevalence of chronic renal failure varies enormously depending on the level of affluence of the country.
- The developed countries have a higher incident rates of treated end-stage renal failure, whereas the emerging countries have very low incident rates.
- There are about one million patients undergoing dialysis worldwide, with an incidence of 0.25 million patients each year.
Epidemiology of in United States
- The incidence of chronic renal failure in the US is 330 per million population.
- More than 10% people, aged 20 years or older have Chronic kidney disease(CKD).
- More than 35% patients aged 20 years or older with Diabetes have CKD.
- More than 20% patients aged 20 years or older with Hypertension have CKD.
- Men with CKD are 50% more likely than women to progress to Chronic renal failure.
Epidemiology in Developing countries
- The prevalence varies from being 100 per million population in Sub-Saharan Africa and India, to 400 per million in Latin America and 600 per million in Saudi Arabia.
- Majority of experts agree that 150 per million population is the average incidence of chronic renal failure in developing countries.
Age
- Incidence of chronic renal failure is greater among adults older than 65 years.
Impact of gender
- Although the prevalence of chronic renal failure in men and women does not differ significantly, it is relatively higher in females.
Ethinicity
- African Americans were 4 times more likely to develop CRF than whites in 2007. Hispanics have 1.5 times higher rates than non-Hispanic whites.
