Resumo: Objective: To describe the epidemiological profile of patients undergoing treatment for renal replacement therapy in dialysis modality, and to identify the difficulties in its realization. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted in Itapipoca-CE, comprising 35 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). The general data was analyzed descriptively using absolute and percentage frequencies. Results: The epidemiological profile of patients shows a higher frequency of: males (19 - 54.3%) aged between 31 and 60 (24 - 68.6%), low education (29 - 82.8%), family incomes of 1 to 2 minimum wages (25 - 71.4%), living in houses of masonry (30 - 85.7%) with treated water provided in their homes (17 - 48.6%). The main signs and symptoms that led to seeking medical consultation were: general weakness (21 - 60.0%), nausea (19 - 54.3%), edema (18 - 51.4%) and lack of appetite (14 - 40.0%). The features most frequently mentioned by the patients as probable causes to CRF were: association of hypertension with diabetes mellitus (11 - 31.4%), hypertension (9 - 25.7%) and glomerulonephritis (5 - 14.3%). Most patients reported difficulty in obtaining medical appointment (25 - 71.4%) and scheduling/receiving exams (20 - 57.1%). Conclusion:The epidemiological profile of patients studied is marked by a low socioeconomic status. As aggravating factors to this situation, there was the difficulty in getting appointments, scheduling and performing diagnostic tests, which undermines the treatment.

Métodos: Se trata de un estudio trasversal, realizado en Itapipoca-CE, con 35 pacientes portadores de insuficiência renal crónica (IRC). Los datos generales fueron analizados de manera descriptiva utilizándose de las frecuencias absolutas y los porcentajes. Resultados: El perfil epidemiológico señala uma mayor frecuencia de pacientes: del sexo masculino (19 - 54,3%), con edad de 31 a 60 años (24 - 68,6%), bajo nivel de escolaridad (29 - 82,8%), ingreso familiar de 1 a 2 sueldos mínimos (25 - 71,4%), viviendo en casa de albañilería (30 - 85,7%) y teniendo agua tratada en sus domicilios (17 - 48,6%). Los principales signos y síntomas para que los pacientes buscaran una consulta médica fueron: debilidad general (21 - 60%), mareos (19 - 54,3%), edema (18 - 51,4%) y la ausencia de apetito (14 - 40%). Los factores más frecuentemente apuntados por los pacientes como causas probables de la IRC incluyeron: la asociación de hipertensión arterial sistémica (HAS) con diabetes mellitus (11 - 31,4%); HAS (9 - 25,7%); y glomerulonefritis (5 - 14,3%). La mayoría de los pacientes relataron la dificultad en conseguir una consulta médica (25 - 71,4%) y hacer/recibir pruebas (20 - 57,1%). Conclusión: El perfil epidemiológico de los pacientes investigados está marcado por el bajo nivel socioeconómico. Para agravar la situación, se verificó la dificultad de obtención de citas médicas, marcación y realización de pruebas diagnósticas, generando perjuicio para La realización del tratamiento.Objetivo: Descrever o perfil epidemiológico de pacientes submetidos ao tratamento de terapia renal substitutiva na modalidade hemodiálise, além de verificar as dificuldades na sua realização.
