La Insuficiencia Cardíaca, las arritmias y la anemia, predominaron como comorbilidades asociadas. Falleció el 2,8% de los casos investigados, de forma predominante, por causas cardiovasculares y neoplasias.Conclusiones: la Enfermedad Renal Crónica se diagnosticó en un elevado porciento de personas, asociada principalmente a la Hipertensión Arterial, la diabetes Mellitus y los adultos mayores. ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the cardiovascular complications and their main determining factors in adult patients with chronic kidney disease in the office 10, Polyclinic “Adrián Sansaricq” of Artemis, from October 2016 to April 2018.Materials and Methods: a descriptive, longitudinal prospective study was conducted. The universe was composed of 856 people. The sample was represented by 214 patients. The variables used were the classification of Chronic Kidney Disease, basic cause, age, sex, cardiovascular risk factors, complications, comorbidities and causes of death. The information was obtained from the individual medical records.Results: Chronic Kidney Disease predominated in women and older adults between 60-69 years. The G3a stage prevailed in the classification of said disease. The main basic causes were hypertensive and diabetic nephropathy, followed by urinary obstruction. There was a high exposure to cardiovascular risk factors with a higher percentage of smokers and the presence of phosphocalcic disorders, mostly in older adults. Heart Failure, arrhythmias and anemia predominated as associated comorbidities. 2.8% of the cases investigated, predominantly, due to cardiovascular causes and malignancies.Conclusions: Chronic Renal Disease was diagnosed in a high percentage of people, mainly associated with Arterial Hypertension, diabetes Mellitus and the elderly.
