ABSTRACT Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health problem worldwide, due to its epidemic proportions and the associated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, data on the burden of CKD among patients attending hospitals in Uganda are still limited. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with CKD among patients presenting at the Kampala International University Teaching Hospital (KIUTH). Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed data of 100 patients who presented at the medicine ward from June 2016 to June 2017. Data were descriptively and inferentially analyzed using SPSS version 18. Results: From June 2016 to June 2017, a total of 100 who patients presented at the medicine ward with history of kidney disease. Of these patients, 89 (89%) was included in this study, 46(52%) of them were female. Among them 39(44%) had hypertension, 27(30%) had diabetic mellitus, 9 (10%) had chronic glomerulonephritis, 7(8%) had hypertension and diabetes mellitus, 2(2%) had HIV/AIDS, and 2(2%) had hepatitis B. Conclusion: CKD was common among patients presenting in our hospital and is associated with high cardiovascular risk. To that end, patients should be thoroughly evaluated to identify and correct causes of their kidney disease, and efforts should be put in place for early detection and screening as well as advocacy on risk factors for CKD development in Uganda.
