Chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is characterized by its asymptomatic nature until its end stage, is one of the most common public health problems in the world. Thus, a regular checkup, especially for those individuals with high-risk groups is inevitably important, and the screening has been done with laboratory findings.  is becoming common to hear about sudden death from kidney failure. The study aimed to examine electrolyte Disturbance in Kidney Failure Patients. Material and Methods: An institutional-based cross-sectional and interview study was conducted at the hemodialysis department in al-Wahda Hospital, Derna City, Libya. All volunteer patients in the hemodialysis department aged between 10 and more than 71 years who were in the department during the hemodialysis period participated in this study.
