Background: To assess the prevalence of stroke symptoms and depression among Saudi dialysis patients and related factors. Methods: This is a cross-sectional multicentre study of Saudi dialysis patients. Demographics, clinical and laboratory's data were collected. Freedom from stroke symptoms was assessed using the Questionnaire for Verifying Stroke-Free Status and depression using the Geriatric Depression Scale. Results: Five-hundred and forty-nine patients (77.3% response rate); 94.6% were receiving hemodialysis and 5.4% peritoneal dialysis were included in the study. Freedom from stroke was reported in 76.6% of patients, was higher in females (p ¼ 0.07), and was not affected by the presence of diabetes mellitus coronary artery disease or peripheral vascular disease. However, it was significantly lower in hypertensive patients (p ¼ 0.035) and was not affected by age, dialysis duration, Kt/V, albumin or hemoglobin levels. It was, however, more prevalent in the non-depressed patients compared to depressed patients (p ¼ 0.036). Mild and major depression scores were noted in 45.2% and 6.1%, respectively; the depression score being significantly higher in HD than in PD patients (6.3 ± 3.4 vs. 5.0 ± 3.2 p ¼ 0.049) but was not related to sex, employment, vascular access type, age, dialysis duration, Kt/V or serum albumin or hemoglobin levels. Conclusion: A quarter of the patients were not stroke symptom-free and these were more likely the depressed patients, in females, but significantly less in hypertensive patients. Almost half of the patients were depressed with 6.1% having major depression. The depression score was significantly higher in HD than in PD patients.
