Abstract

Objective: To determine the levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and coronary events in patients undergoing hemodialysis at Fresenius Medical Care Institution Riomar in Barranquilla, during the period 2013-2014.

Materials and Methods: A descriptive and retrospective study in which 194 medical records of patients treated at the center for study institution through non probability sampling was conducted included. Scientific and methodological aspects that realize the ethical conduct during the investigation were taken into account.

Results: 60 % of patients are masculine with an average age of 59.8 years (SD +/- 16.2). 27.8 % had a coronary event and parathyroid hormone levels significantly higher (p <0.05) independently most potential confounders. However, more frequent acute coronary events in patients with PTH levels ≥ 300 pg/ml without hypertension without dyslipidemia and diabetes, aged between 60-79 years and male gender.

Conclusion: There is significant statistical association between elevated levels of parathyroid hormone and the incidence of coronary events, but prospective studies to corroborate the findings in this investigation are required
