STRUCTURE OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE IN CHILDREN (ACCORDING TO Smolensk Children's Regional Clinical Hospital)
A retrospective analysis of medical records of children with an established diagnosis of chronic kidney disease who were on inpatient treatment in the Smolensk Children's Regional Clinical Hospital from 2019 to 2020 was conducted. The nosological structure, age-sex characteristics, and the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children of the Smolensk region were studied. It was found that the structure of CKD is dominated by secondary pyelonephritis against the background of congenital kidney abnormalities (obstructive uropathies) and diabetic nephropathy. CKD in children is mainly represented by stages 1 and 2. The leading risk factors for the development of CKD were burdened heredity for nephrological pathology, exposure to harmful factors, congenital anomalies of the urinary system and recurrent renal infections.
