- W48757820 abstract "We studied the entry of elderly uremic patients to chronic dialysis in the U.S. in 1979. We also reviewed long-term survival, causes of death, and risk factors for death in old patients on dialysis at one center for the period 1966 to 1983. A comparison of the number of patients at risk with the number entering dialysis in the United States in 1979 indicates that 80% of the patients aged 25-45 years, 30% of patients over the age of 65 years, and 6% of those over the age of 75 years entered dialysis during that period. Of 239 patients over the age of 70 years followed at the Regional Kidney Disease Program at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, the seven-year cumulative survival was 17%. In this program withdrawal from dialysis was the commonest cause of death, accounting for 40% of all deaths. Age groups over 75 years, sex, time period, duration of dialysis, eight pre-existing degenerative diseases, living situation, family support, and site and type of dialysis were not risk factors for termination of dialysis, but living in a nursing home was. When compared to the young, total deaths and deaths from discontinuation were much higher, and this decision was made earlier. Half of the patients who died because dialysis was discontinued were competent and decided for themselves; the other half were incompetent and families and physicians made the decision.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)" @default.
