Pruritus in chronic hemodialysis patients in the nephrology department of the Point G University Hospital (Bamako-MALI).
The purpose of this work is to describe pruritus in chronic hemodialysis patients at the G-University Hospital Center.
Method and patients: This a descriptive cross-sectional study included 30 patients receiving chronic hemodialysis.
Results: Among 90 chronic hemodialysis patients, the study selected 30, including 22 men (73.3%) and 8 women (26.7%), with an average age of 46.60 years (range: 24-82 years). All had pruritus: it was localized in 23.3 % (n=7) and diffuse in 76.7% (n=23). It occurred during dialysis sessions for half of them. It could be nocturnal (50%), diurnal (30%) intermittent (10%), or constant (10%). The dermatological signs associated with pruritus were cutaneous hyperpigmentation in 13.3% of cases, contact eczema in 3.3%, and cutaneous xerosis in 53.3%.
Conclusion: Pruritus is still the most common sign of dermatological conditions in chronic hemodialysis. Treatment remains symptomatic.
