Abstract: Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) is one of the major health issues in Sri Lanka that recorded the highest mortality and morbidity rates. In 2016 North Central Province of Sri Lanka was endemic to CKDu, with an estimated one-sixth of its population being affected by CKDu. In this study, the main objective is to examine the impact of CKDu on patients and 52 patients who have registered under the CKDu clinic of Rajanganaya Track 11 hospital is used as the sample. Analysis revealed that the highest number of patients belong to the 60-69 age group and it is 44.2%. The number of males is significantly higher than the number of females; 75% of the sample is males and 25% of them are females. Most of the males are breadwinners of their families and the sickness of the breadwinner has strictly affected them. This study statistically proves that males are more vulnerable to CKDu than females. Disease has impacted on matrimonial relationships. The majority, both males and females the patients, had been farmers. It is 55.8%. This study statistically proves that the etiology of the disease still remains unknown. In addition, this study proves that the disease has had a massive impact on the demographic and socio-economic status of the patients such as age and gender, marital status, occupation and education. It could be noticed that people do not have a proper understanding of the disease. Immediate actions should be taken to educate people on those areas via officers close to the ground level like PHIs and Midwives.
