Abstract
Scondery Hyperparathyrodism is a common complication of chronic kidney disease . we estimated serum parathyroid hormone and some minerals in 46 patients undergo hemodialysis treatment in dialysis center at Brack Alshati General hospital, during September 2021 to October 2021. Before dialysis blood sample was collected for assessment of PTH level and minerals including calcium, phosphorus, sodium and potassium. mean age of the patients was 45.37±17.14 years. The mean concentration of PTH for the study group was 826.77 ± 646.86 pg/ml. The prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) among the Patients was 73.91%. We conclude that SHPT is high prevalent in our hemodialysis population and with serious outcomes for the health of patients. If it is poorly overcome, this imbalance can result in the bone disease, calcification of soft tissue and vascular calcification, all of these are found to be influential on mortality and morbidity.
