SANTACOLOMA OSORIO, Mario e GIRALDO, Germán Camilo. Gastrointestinal manifestations of chronic kidney disease. Rev. colom. nefrol. [online]. 2017, vol.4, n.1, pp.17-26. ISSN 2500-5006. https://doi.org/10.22265/acnef.4.1.266.
Introduction:
There is a wide variety of gastrointestinal clinical manifestations that may increase the deterioration of the quality of life in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which are manageable if properly detected.
Objective:
The objective of this work is to perform an updated and analytical review of the literature on the manifestations in the digestive tract of patients with chronic deterioration of renal function.
Results:
The results indicate that some of the signs and symptoms on the gastrointestinal tract of patients with CKD are individual, and non-specific symptoms such as anorexia, nausea and vomiting predominate, which can be controlled with adequate renal replacement therapy; while others, rarer, such as ascites associated with dialysis, impoverish the prognosis and illustrate the need for transplantation.
