Objective: To describe the epidemiological and clinical characteristics and the outcome of COVID19 infection according to the degree of severity of disease in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease on prevalent hemodialysis (more than 3 months in the program) who were hospitalized. Materials and methods: It´s a retrospective case series, performed in the National Hospital Arzobispo Loayza. We include all people in a chronic program of hemodialysis with a positive test of COVID 19 and stay hospitalized. Results: We evaluate 83 patients according to severity of the disease. 54.21% of patients had the severe form of COVID 19 disease. They have worst PaO2/fiO2 (195.80 p<0.05), higher ferritin value (> 1 500 ug/l, p <0.05) than the others and the highest PCR value (> 15mg/dl p<0.05). A 24.09% of patients were asymptomatic, the mortality was 25.30%. Conclusion: Patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis and COVID 19 infection, had a high degree of mortality because they have severe form of infection and they had lower PaO2/fiO2 mmHg, higher frequency of SaO2 < 90%, higher frequency of ARDS, leukocytosis and elevated RCP and ferritin levels.
