Abstract

The risk factors of chronic renal failure (CRF), including diabetes and hypertension, are
described in present study. Also, study involved the effect of lifestyle factors of CRF, such as
(age, gender, smoking, chronic disease and area of residence). Also the study included an
estimation of urea and creatinine in serum blood of chronic renal failure (CRF) which treated
with hemodialysis. The urea and creatinine were tested in the present study only for practical
purposes because of a good standard for determining kidney functions. Blood samples of (30)
patients with chronic renal failure from both sexes were compared with (50) samples taken
from healthy individuals as a control group.The results demonstrated a significant elevation in
blood urea and creatinine concentrations for patients with (CRF) in compared to control
group. The hemodialysis process caused a significant reduction (P<0.05) in the concentration
of urea and creatinine, the results also demonstrated that the some risk factors greatly affect
on incidence of chronic renal failure.
