Introduction: Chronic kidney disease is a pathology that has a great global impact on public health and its association with osteoporosis in this group of patients, however there are few regional descriptions.
Methods: retrospective, descriptive and longitudinal study. Documentary data collection applying validated densitometric criteria as well as the epidemiological characteristics of the population. Tabulation and analysis with SPSS2022.
Results: 383 patients were included. In the sociodemographic characteristics, it was obtained that 87.4% of patients with CKD are older than 41 years. No significant difference was found in the comparison by gender (43% F, 57% M). No relationship was found with smoking, alcohol and CKD. The main causes of CKD are DM 36%, HTA 24.5%, mixed 8.6%. Osteoporosis was found in 232 patients, mainly in the male gender (135). The main risk factors associated with osteoporosis were consumption of corticosteroids 178-(65.86%), Obesity 69-(25.46%), and others 37-(11.8%) other than smoking.
Conclusions: The prevalence of kidney disease in South America is similar to other latitudes, the frequency of osteoporosis in our region is unknown due to the scarcity of studies in this regard, which is why it is essential to develop studies of this nature.
Keywords: osteoporosis, epidemiology, chronic kidney disease.
