TLDR Patients on long-term hemodialysis often have skin problems related to their treatment.
The study investigated dermatological manifestations in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. It aimed to describe the characteristics of these skin findings and their relationship with demographic and clinical features. Patients from a private hemodialysis clinic were prospectively analyzed, examining factors such as age, gender, type of vascular access, hemodialysis duration, and various blood parameters. The study documented the dermatological findings and calculated calcium x phosphorus levels, with statistical significance set at p<0.05.
