INTRODUCTION: Chronic kidney disease (CKD)is a serious public health problem in Africa with regard to mortality associated with it. According to global hospital data, CKD is involved in 4-22% of deaths in tropical Africa. In Mali, epidemiological studies are infrequent.Thus, this work is under taken with the objective of studying the epidemiological aspects and the factors associated with the mortality of hemodialysis patients in the hemodialysis unit of the Mali Gavardo Hospital (HMG) in Sébenikoro. METHOD: We conducted a descriptive retrospective cross-sectionalstudy of the hemodialysis unit of the HMG in Sébenikoro. Data were collected over a 12-month period from January to December 2017. Included were records of all hemodialysis patients for chronic renal failure who died, of either sex and anyage. RESULTS: A total of 52 patients were dialysed during the study period among whom 12 died or a mortality rate of 23%. The average age of the patients was 59.16 years with extremes of 39 and 71 years. Patients aged 60 and over accounted for 58.3% of cases. There was a male predominance with a sex ratio M / F: 2. In terms of chronic diseases, 83.3% of patients were hypertensive, 50% diabetic, and 16.66% hadhepatitis C. Compared to the initial nephropathies : glomerular nephropathy: 58.3%, vascular nephropathy: 25.0%, undetermined nephropathy: 16.7%. For the management of anemia, 100% ofour patients received EPO and iron injection. Regarding the management of hemodialysis, 83.3% had an AVF as a vascular approach and 16.7% had a central venous catheter as a vascular approach. The patients were all regular at their hemodialysis session with a rhythm of two sessions of 04H of time per session and per week. The causes of death were dominated by cardiovascular pathologies: 5 cases, 41.7%, infectious diseases: 4 cases, 33.3%, indeterminate pathologies: 3 cases or 25%. Deaths occurred in 58.3% of cases before one year of dialysis and 41.7% after one year of hemodialysis treatment. CONCLUSION: The mortality rate of hemodialysis patients is high in Mali, especially in the HMG of Sébénikoro. Cardiovascular causes have an important role in the mortality of hemodialysis patients, but other causes such as infections are not to be over looked.
