ABSTRACT
The Italian Society of Nephrology (SIN) promoted a national survey in order to collect detailed information from all Italian renal and dialysis units. This is the second paper, following the first one which focused on three northwestern regions, aim-ing to present the results of the survey. In this paper, data from the central regions (Abruzzo, Lazio, Marche, Molise and Umbria) are reported. The most relevant findings in the five regions were A) epidemiology--prevalence of dialysis patients = 742, 781, 731, 814, 768 per million population (pmp); prevalence of transplanted patients = 162, 153, 296, 134, 304 pmp; incidence of dialysis patients = 175, 179, 184, 143, 162; gross mortality of dialysis patients = 12.3, 11.8, 15.9, 13.4, 14.0%; distribution of vascular access in prevalent dialysis patients arteriovenous fistula = 90, 87, 82, 94, 80%, central venous catheter = 7, 10, 15, 4, 17%; vascular graft = 3, 3 ,3, 2, 3%. B) Structural resources--number of hospital beds = 52, 43, 39, 62, 44; dialysis places = 205, 260, 203, 301, 226. C) Personal resources--renal physicians = 50, 78, 47, 53, 47 pmp; renal nurses = 162, 172, 180, 224, 245 pmp; each renal physician takes care of 15, 10, 16, 15, 17 dialysis patients and each renal nurse cares of 4.6, 4.6, 4.1, 3.6, 3.1 dialysis patients. D) Activity--admission to hospital= 2334, 1689, 2652, 1255, 1377 pmp; renal biopsies = 59, 84, 97, 19, 80 pmp. Despite the differences we find among the regions, most indexes are similar and show a satisfactory level of renal care provided in the central regions examined.
