Hemodialysis‐related pruritus and associated cutaneous manifestations

Abstract: Pruritus is still a common problem in hemodialysis-dependent patients. The prevalence of xerosis and excoriations was high in patients undergoing replacement therapy. Efficient replacement hemodialysis may provide a clinical benefit.

“…These results are comparable to the studies by Udaykumar et al who observed pallor in 60% patients and Dyachenko et al in 75.7% patients on haemodialysis. 4,13 Pallor increased with the severity of CKD; being 5%, 21.25% and 31.25%, and in mild, moderate and severe CKD respectively. It is due to decreased erythropoietin by the diseased kidney, reduced red cell life span or blood loss during dialysis.…”

“…Possible etiological factors are presented in Table 2 (11)(12)(13)(14)(15). There is conflicting evidence regarding the relationship between the onset and severity of pruritus and the duration of ESRD and dialysis therapy (11,12,16). No clear association between pruritus and underlying renal disease has been established (12).…”

“…São relatadas prevalências de 20 até 90% de prurido em alguns serviços de hemodiálise. [5][6][7][8][9] A causa do prurido urêmico não é completamente compreendida. Fatores que têm sido implicados incluem xerose, hiperparatireoidismo secundário, elevados níveis séricos de fosfato e magnésio, proliferação de mastócitos intradérmicos, materiais das membranas de diálise, aumento dos níveis de histamina no plasma e anemia por deficiência de ferro.…”
