Advanced stages of renal disease were the most recurrent, these were KDIGO stage 3 for AKI and stage 5 for CKD. Hemodialysis was prescribed in a quarter of the cases, but only a portion of the patients had actually benefited from it. However, 74.07% of the patients who were able to effectively access to hemodialysis, benefited from at least one dialysis session in the 24 hours following the prescription.
