Abstract

Abstract Background and Aims Pathology of the cardiovascular system is the leading cause of death in patients with CKD, while determining the causes of the formation of cardiac events is often difficult. Method We conducted an analysis of echocardiography data performed by 50 children with CKD. On the echoCG, the final systolic and diastolic sizes of the left ventricle (FSS and FDS), the final systolic and diastolic volumes of the left ventricle (FSV and FDV) were determined; measured the thickness of the interventricular septum (IVS) and the posterior wall of the left ventricle (PWLV). Left ventricular myocardial mass (LVMM) was determined by the formula proposed by R. Devereux and N. Reichek: LVMM = 1.04x (/ IVS+PWLV+FDS/3-FDS3) - 13.6where, IVS - thickness of IVS in diastole,PWLV-thickness of PWLV in diastole, FDS-final diastolic size of the left ventricle. Results We conducted an analysis of echocardiography data performed by 50 children with CKD. On the echoCG, the final systolic and diastolic sizes of the left ventricle (FSS and FDS), the final systolic and diastolic volumes of the left ventricle (FSV and FDV) were determined; measured the thickness of the interventricular septum (IVS) and the posterior wall of the left ventricle (PWLV). Left ventricular myocardial mass (LVMM) was determined by the formula proposed by R. Devereux and N.

Conclusion The mechanisms of damage to the heart and blood vessels in patients with CKD begin to function already in the initial stage of renal failure and increase as it progresses. The need to know the data of clinical, laboratory and instrumental examination methods at the terminal stage of CKD is dictated, first of all, by the possibility of exposure to them. An important stimulus for conducting an echocardiographic examination is the early detection and correction of cardiovascular disorders, in connection with the prospect of increasing the survival of patients after kidney transplantation.
