Relevance. High mortality in dialysis patients (6.3–8.2 times higher than in the general population) motivate to search and identify potential risk factors to improve survival.

Aim. This review is devoted to the analysis of the literature on the identification of factors affecting outcomes in patients with chronic renal failure who are on hemodialysis.

Search strategy. Search of scientific publications in the search engines Pub Med, Google Scholar, Google Academia, in the electronic scientific library eLibrary.ru, CyberLeninka 10 years deep. Criteria for search information: years of search included one decade (2009-2019); publications were in Russian, Kazakh and English; full-textured epidemiological and clinical studies. Exclusion criteria: publications with animal studies, recurring publications, conference proceedings, and clinical cases.

Results. As the main predictors of mortality and survival of patients on hemodialysis, according to the literature, the dose and frequency of dialysis, residual renal function were studied.

Conclusion. Analysis of the literature data showed that the most significant factor determining the outcomes of chronic renal failure in hemodialysis is residual renal function.
