COGNITIVE CHANGES IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE DEPENDING ON THE DEGREE OF THE DISEASE

Аннотация

51 patients with CKD were examined, 20 of them with CKD stage I-II, 20 with CKD stage III, 11 with CKD stage IV. A questionnaire was conducted to identify limitations in daily activity, neuropsychological testing was performed using the MMSE scale, a test battery for frontal lobe dysfunction (FAB), and a test to assess regulatory functions. To clarify the etiology of CI, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed. In patients with chronic renal failure (CKD stages III-IV), cognitive impairment was detected more often than in patients without chronic kidney disease (CKD stages I-II).
