WCN24-127 PROFILE, FREQUENCY, DETERMINANTS, AND INTRINSIC FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONTROL OF DIABETES SUGAR IN CHRONIC HEMODIALYSIS IN FRENCH GUIANA: MONCENTRIC STUDY AT WESTERN GUIANA HOSPITAL CENTER

Abstract

In France, 4.5 million people are affected by diabetes, nearly one in ten adults could be affected by 2045. In French Guiana, with a prevalence of about 8%, the population is twice as affected as in mainland France. When associated with local difficulties of access to care, morbidity-mortality is strongly high. As elsewhere, diabetes is one of the major causes of endstage renal failure (ESRD). However, the prevalence of ESRD is higher in French Guiana than in other regions of France. It is one of the main causes of chronic dialysis, but its prevalence in this population is poorly documented.
