2018, IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a health problem in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) population. Prediction of CKD in HIV patients needsto have done. This study aimis to identify the prevalence of CKD in HIV patients.Thisis a cross-sectional studyofmale and female, age 18-60 years old, diagnosedHIVat Wahidin Sudirohusodo & Hasanuddin University Hospital Makassar. Diagnosed as CKD if estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60ml/min/1.73m² and/or microalbuminuria (MA) is found. Total of 86 HIV patients included in the analyses.Distribution of CKD, showed 3 (3.5%) subjects with eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m². Based on CKD stage, 2 (2.3%) subjects in stage 3a and 1 (1.2%) subjectin stage 4. If all of the subjects were grouped according to MA criteria only, eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m² only and MA with eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m², we found 2 (2.3%) subjects with eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m² & NA, 1 (1.2%) subject with eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m² & MA, and 32 (37.2%) subjects with eGFR ≥60mL/min/1.73m² & MA. We concluded that the prevalence of CKD in HIV populations in Makassar is still quite low.
