Moien Khan
United Arab Emirates University, UAE
C hronic kidney disease is an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality in United Arab
Emirates. End stage renal disease is an important public health problem in United Arab
Emirates .Multiple metabolic factors contribute to chronic kidney disease. There has been a
rising trend in the rate of chronic kidney disease. For chronic kidney disease, the crude DALYs
rate per 100 000 increased from 354.795 in 2010, 95% uncertainty Interval (UI) (456.92-
265.91) in 2010 to 432.70 in 2015, 95% uncertainty interval (UI) (586.47-305.75). During
the time period 2010-2015, the total DALY’s of chronic kidney disease increased by 121.98%
compared with a 94.26% increase in the rest of the world. The study shows a high burden
of chronic kidney disease in United Arab Emirates attributed to multiple risk factors. This
has attributed to an increase in overall DALY’s. The findings call for prioritizing and incorporating programs to control and
prevent risk factors such as diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Also it calls to implement awareness among the population and
clinicians, with strategies to strengthen evidence based management in primary care.
