Background: Mortality from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) has increased particularly in the Americas, the trend of wich could also be observed in Mexico, mainly due to the magnitude that Diabetes Mellitus and Arterial Hypertension have reached as the main causal factors., Objective: To examine the behavior and patterns associated with the demand for medical consultations for Kidney Disease (KD) in the IMSS during the period 2011-2020., Material and Methods: According to the medical consultations for KD, general and adjusted rates were estimated by year and population assigned to first-level medical unit (UMF). Through geographic information systems and spatial statistics, the magnitude, behavior and patterns associated with the estimated indicators were analyzed., Results: From 2011 to 2020, the demand for KD medical consultations increased 45.8%; the behavior was unusually higher only in 1 out of 5 UMF (p < 0.05), up to 550.2 medical consultations per 1000 persons, wich were located mainly in Jalisco, Veracruz and Chiapas. The unusually higher pattern for medical consultations (p < 0.05) was observed in the same areas during each year of study., Conclusions: The demand for medical consultations by KD has increased in IMSS and has been significantly higher in UMF located in the west, east and southeast border of Mexico, which could indicate endemic areas of KD and require the development of epidemiological research to elucidate the causality of the disease., (© 2022 Revista Médica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social.)
