4 cze 2024 · In this systematic review of nine studies and meta-analysis of four studies involving 576 adult patients with kidney failure receiving maintenance HD, we found that increasing dialysate flow rates from 500 ml/min to 800 ml/min improved dialysis adequacy as measured by URR (3.38) and spKt/V (0.08).
29 kwi 2024 · Blood flow rate (BFR) is a key determinant of dialysis adequacy under the condition of three times per week for 4 h for each hemodialysis (HD) session [Citation 1]. An increased BFR can significantly improve single-pool Kt/V (spKt/V) and may improve survival in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients [Citation 2, Citation 3].
Patients bearing a high-flow rate AV access and having a greater increase in left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV) are clearly more likely to develop heart failure (HF). 4 A strong relationship exists between blood flow rate (Qa) and CO; furthermore, AV access contributes to the LVH.
15 sie 2022 · Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with end-stage kidney disease, with rates of cardiovascular mortality ≈10 to 20 times higher among patients receiving dialysis than in the general population. 1 Reasons are multiple and include a high case fatality rate in patients who have cardiac events, a ...
2 sie 2009 · In conjunction with this, HD patients are particularly susceptible to myocardial ischemia. This is as a result of large vessel and microcirculatory changes resulting in a reduced coronary flow reserve. This determines the ability to increase blood flow to the myocardium during increased demand.
10 lip 2022 · ABSTRACT. Heart failure (HF) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) frequently coexist; 1 comorbidity worsens the prognosis of the other. HF is responsible for almost half the deaths of patients on dialysis.
Cardiovascular disease is the principal cause of morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. The principal alterations responsible are left ventricular hypertrophy and arterial disease characterized by an enlargement and hypertrophy of arteries and the high prevalence of atheromatous plaques.
