METHODS: was included in this study 102 patients who had initiated dialysis treatment in a university hospital. The prospective record was realized to collect personals data, laboratory data, morbity and mortality. RESULTS: the arterial hypertension and the infection was more frequent causes of co-morbity (58,8%). The infection locality more frequent was the blood circulation in 30 (50%). CONCLUSION: the majority of the patients who had arrived at the service was in dialysis urgency; the morbity most prevalent was the arterial hypertension and the infection; the infection locality more frequent was the blood circulation related to the use of the central venous catheter; and that the male sex, the white race, the uremia, and the morbity arterial hypertension and infection, had been the ones that more contributed for the increase of the mortality risk.
