ABSTRACT
Introduction: The decrease in glomerular filtration rate in older adults’ patients with diabetic and hypertensive problems is a consequence of physiological factors to which are added some vascular changes associated with alterations produced by underlying chronic diseases.Objective: To characterize renal function in older adults’ patients with diabetic and hypertensive problems, attended at the Family Doctor's Office No. 4, Policlínico Docente "Ángel Alfonso Ortiz Vázquez", Manzanillo, Granma, in 2020.
Methods: A descriptive, retrospective study was carried out in 2020 to determine the renal function in 249 older adults with diabetic and hypertension problems, attended at the Family Doctor's Office No. 4, Policlínico Docente "Ángel Alfonso Ortiz Vázquez", Manzanillo, Granma. The Cockcroft-Gaulty formula was used. The following variables extracted from the medical records were used: diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, diagnosis of hypertension, age, sex, weight and creatinine text.
Results: Male sex predominated (52.2 %). The mean age range, between 60 and 87 years, was 68.9 ± 7.3. The minimum glomerular filtration rate was 27.5 ml/min/1.73 m2, and the maximum was 143.7 ml/min/1.73 m2, the mean rate in these patients was 69.2 ± 18.7 ml/min/1.73 m2. For male was 71.4 ± 19.0 ml/min/1.73 m2 and 66.8 ± 18.2 ml/min/1.73 m2 for female. Hypertension predominated (94.4%) over diabetes mellitus (41.8%). The glomerular filtration rate in hypertensive patients (29.7 %) was less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2.
Conclusions: A third of patients with diabetic and hypertension had decreased in glomerular filtration rate, and this decrease was associated with increasing age.
