ملخص

Frailty, an important problem in geriatric medicine, is becoming more recognized in patients with CKD, as well as patients with ESKD, as a factor that can even worsen the prognosis and the quality of life of these patients. It is imperative for the nephrology community to recognize this syndrome of frailty and work to manage it.

In our dialysis patients, we detected high prevalence of frailty syndrome among all age groups even those younger than 40 years old. Frailty is associated with female gender, hypoalbuminemia, increased inflammatory markers as elevated CRP and elevated total leukocytic count and in those with low hemoglobin level. Frailty also more detected in patients with hyperparathyroidism.
