End-stage chronic kidney disease (ESKD) is a major public health issue, with particularly high mortality during the first year of dialysis. Few recent Moroccan data evaluate and model factors associated with this early mortality.ObjectiveTo assess one-year mortality after dialysis initiation, identify prognostic factors among incident hemodialysis patients at CHU Hassan II of Fès, and develop a predictive risk score based on these factors.
This was a retrospective, single-center study including 478 patients who started dialysis between January 2020 and August 2024. Survival was estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and factors associated with mortality were identified by multivariate Cox regression. The coefficients of the final model were used to create a 1-Year Mortality Risk Score, internally validated using bootstrap (corrected C-index = 0.741), and deployed as a web application.
The median age of patients was 55 years, with low prior nephrology follow-up (35.1%). One-year mortality was 20.3%, mainly due to infections (29.9%) and cardiovascular complications (22.7%).The Cox model identified the following independent risk factors: Advanced age (HR = 1.024 per year) Occurrence of convulsive crises (HR = 3.250)Protective factors included: Creation of an arteriovenous fistula (HR = 0.353) Preservation of residual diuresis (HR = 0.594) Higher serum albumin levels (HR = 0.956 per gram) Medical coverage (AMO/CNOPS/FAR/CNSS)
One-year mortality among incident hemodialysis patients in Morocco remains high. We developed and validated an accessible online risk score to stratify the one-year mortality risk after dialysis initiation. Early identification of high-risk patients using this tool, along with improved management and follow-up, is necessary to reduce mortality.
