Whether primary or secondary to kidney disease, hypertension remains an important risk factor not only for the progression of kidney disease but also for the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Currently, there is no data on the control of hypertension in CKD patients in Chad. The main objective of this study was to determine the factors of poor control of hypertension during CKD and their therapeutic modalities. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study carried out over a period of 8 months from September 1, 2021 to May 31, 2022 in the Nephrology Department of the Renaissance University Hospital Center in N’Djamena, Chad. During the study period, patients aged 18 years and above, which were hospitalized and/or followed for CKD with uncontrolled hypertension were included. Results: A total of 1013 patients were consulted during the study period, however, 36 cases were included, with a hospital prevalence of 3.5%. The mean age of the patients was 60 ± 9.68 years [22 and 75 years]. The patient’s history was dominated by hypertension (94.4%) and diabetes (41.7%). The main risk factors of hypertension found were diabetes (38.9%), physical inactivity (19.4%) and obesity (36.1%). Type 2 diabetes was pre-sent in 38.9% (n = 14) of the patients.
