A mathematical analysis of dialysis report and kidney function tests; a case study

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are need to do kidney functioning tests in a regular interval due to this time money as well as energy are affected. This study determines the difference of standard deviation of the patient’s weight, systolic blood pressure (BP) and diastolic BP pre- and post-dialysis and observe the changes that takes place in the patients’ health. Moreover, as the kidney functioning tests are time consuming and expensive, therefore in order to save time and money we want to give a mathematical solution for the benefit of mankind. The data of the CKD patients has been collected from medical college and hospital, Assam. The data collection was done randomly selecting 5 CKD patients and the data comprises of the body weight, BP of the patient pre dialysis and post dialysis. Analysis the data with some statistical tools (standard deviation, σ) and interpret the result. The difference of standard deviation of the patient’s weight, BP of systolic and diastolic are measure pre and post dialysis, it is found either the patient is approaching towards good health or not.
