Abstract

Background: Renal ultrasonography is often the most applicable and beneficial radiologic technique for evaluating hypertensive patients. For the evaluation of the effects of hypertension on the kidneys and their function, it is necessary to develop a method that is both safe and reasonable. Objective: The objective of this study was to compare renal sonographic parameter in hypertensives and normotensive patients. Methods: This case control study was carried out to find out the renal sonographic parameters in hypertensive and normotensive patients. The sample size was 135 in each group (Hypertensive and normotensive) which was selected purposively. Results: Most (37.04%) of the respondents were in 41-50 years age among them 52.0% were female in case group and 49.63% were <40 years among them 60.0% were female in control group. Incase group 52.6% were from urban area, 33.3% were graduates, 40.7% were housewives, 51.11% had >26 BMI. In control group 50.4% were from urban area, 33.3% had secondary level of education, 48.9% were housewives and 84.44% had 22-26 BMI. Regarding serum creatinine level in case group it was found that 87.41% had 0.74-1.35 mg/dL creatinine, in control group it was found that 63.70% had 0.74-1.35 mg/dL. Renal bipolar length, renal anterior posterior diameter, renal cortical thickness, renal cortical ecogenecity, corticomedullary differentiation were significantly associated with their TC and TAG in both hypertensive and non-hypertensive group. Conclusion: So this study aimed to identify the parameters that indicate increase risk of possible renal damage in individuals with essential hypertension.
