Abstract              Background: CKD is seen in majority of the patients of diabetes milletus. CKD increases the frequency of cardiovascular disease episodes and progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Aim and objective: To study the prevalence of chronic kidney disease in type II diabetes mellitus patients at a tertiary health care centre Methodology: Present study was a prospective study carried out in diabetic clinic at tertiary health care centre. Study population was diagnosed cases of type II diabetes mellitus visiting diabetic clinic at a tertiary health care centre. Data was collected with pre tested questionnaire. Patients were considered as having CKD when they have low eGFR ((<60 ml/min/1.73 m2) and /or increased ACR (≥ 30 mg/g or ≥ 3 mg/mmol). Stages of CKD were determined according to KDQOI (Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative) guidelines. Results: Mean age of the patient in our study was 48.25±4.6 years. Male to female ration in our study was 1.17:1. Mean serum creatnine was 1.2±0.4 mg/dl Mean urine creatinine was 98.6± 13.27 mg/dl and Mean urine albumin was 134.5± 68.31 mg/l. In our study we found that prevalence of CKD in type II diabetes milletus was 51.3%. Mean GFR of the patient was 78.41± 17.11 ml/min/1.73 m2. Mean ACR of the patient was 113± 24.5 mg/g.
