Abstract:
The study was performed on 80 chronic renal failure(CRF) subjects. Initial results: Clinical respiratory manifestation: The main respiratory symptom in CRF: chest pain 60,49%, cough 46,25%. There is not significant difference in respiratory symptoms between CRF with intermittent dialysis (P>0.05). Physical symptoms: Crepitating 48,75%, rough vesicular breathing 37,5%. Vesicular breathing and crackle in CRF with intermittent dialysis were significantly higher (P<0,01). Lung radiographic features: There are 8 lesions on lung X-ray, main lesions: lung calcification 80%, large-lung hilar syndrome 71%, lung manifestation in hyperuremia 32,5%, pleural effusion 26,25%. Lung calcification and large lung hilar-syndrom in CRF with ID were higher (P<0,01). There is a relationship between the lesions on chest X-ray and hyperuremia level.
