[PMID: 38178566 PMCID: PMC10773638 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2023.2296612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication of hemodialysis (HD), but there is no consensus on its definition. In 2015, Flythe proposed a definition of IDH (Definition 1 in this study): nadir systolic blood pressure (SBP) <90 mmHg during hemodialysis for patients with pre-dialysis SBP <159 mmHg, and nadir SBP <100 mmHg during hemodialysis for patients with pre-dialysis SBP ≥160 mmHg. This prospective observational cohort study investigated the association of frequent IDH based on Definition 1 with clinical outcomes and compared Definition 1 with a commonly used definition (nadir SBP <90 mmHg during hemodialysis, Definition 2). The incidence of IDH was observed over a 3-month exposure assessment period. Patients with IDH events ≥30% were classified as 'frequent IDH'; the others were 'infrequent IDH'. All-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and all-cause hospitalization events were followed up for 36 months. This study enrolled 163 HD patients. The incidence of IDH was 11.1% according to Definition 1 and 10.5% according to Definition 2. The Kaplan-Meier curves showed that frequent IDH patients had higher risks of all-cause mortality (p = 0.009, Definition 1; p = 0.002, Definition 2) and cardiovascular mortality (p = 0.021, Definition 1). Multivariable Cox regression analysis indicated that frequent IDH was independently associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (Model 1: HR = 2.553, 95%CI 1.334-4.886, p = 0.005; Model 2: HR = 2.406, 95%CI 1.253-4.621, p = 0.008). In conclusion, HD patients classified as frequent IDH are at a greater risk of all-cause mortality. This highlights the significance of acknowledging and proactively managing frequent IDH within the HD patients.

Abstract
Background Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is the primary complication of haemodialysis (HD); however, its diverse pathophysiology and inconsistent definitions complicate its prediction. Despite attempts using the heart rate variability (HRV) test for IDH prediction, studies on its usefulness for predicting IDH diagnosed per the nadir 90 criterion are lacking. We aimed to evaluate HRV test efficacy and reproducibility in predicting IDH based on the nadir 90 criterion. Methods Seventy patients undergoing HD participated in this multicentre prospective observational study. The HRV test was performed during non-HD periods and IDH was monitored during 12 HD sessions. IDH was diagnosed according to the nadir 90 criterion, defined as a decrease in systolic blood pressure of ≤90 mmHg during HD. After monitoring, the HRV test was repeated. An HRV-IDH index was developed using multivariate logistic regression analysis employing HRV test parameters. The predictive power of the HRV-IDH index was analysed using the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC). Reproducibility was evaluated using correlation analysis of two HRV tests on the same patient. Results There were 37 and 33 patients in the IDH and non-IDH groups, respectively. The HRV-IDH index predicted IDH occurrence with AUROCs of 0.776 and 0.803 for patients who had experienced at least one or repeated IDH episodes, respectively. Spearman's correlation coefficient for HRV-IDH indices was 0.859 for the first and second HRV tests. Conclusions The HRV test holds promise for predicting IDH, particularly for patients with recurring IDH diagnosed based on the nadir 90 criterion.

Effect of absolute blood volume measurement-guided fluid management on the incidence of intradialytic hypotension-associated events: a randomised controlled trial. Clin Kidney J 2024; 17:sfae128. [PMID: 38774440 PMCID: PMC11106788 DOI: 10.1093/ckj/sfae128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Ultrafiltration to target weight during haemodialysis is complicated by intradialytic hypotension-associated adverse events (IHAAEs) in 10-30% of dialysis treatments. IHAAEs are caused by critical reductions in absolute blood volume (ABV), due to the interaction of ultrafiltration, refill and compensatory mechanisms. Non-randomised studies have suggested that ABV-guided treatment, using an indicator dilution technique employing the blood volume monitor on the dialysis machine, could reduce the incidence of IHAAEs. Methods We performed an open-label randomised controlled trial. Patients were randomly assigned to adjustment of target weight guided by ABV measurements or standard care. The primary outcome was the change in the incidence of IHAAEs from baseline, defined as the percentage of treatment episodes in a 4-week period where the patient had a systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg or symptoms of impending hypotension. ABV measurements were compared with anthropomorphometric estimation and the gold standard using isotope dilution. Results A total of 56 patients were randomised, of whom 29 were allocated to ABV-guided treatment and 27 to standard care. Overall baseline incidence of IHAAEs was 26.0%. ABV-guided treatment significantly reduced the incidence of IHAAEs compared with standard care, with a mean change from baseline of -9.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) -17.3 to -1.8) versus 2.4% (95% CI -2.3-7.2). The adjusted difference between the groups was 10.5% (95% CI 1.3-19.8; P = .026). ABV measurement had moderate agreement with other methods to estimate blood volume. The sensitivity for the previously suggested threshold of a post-dialysis normalised blood volume of 65 ml/kg was observed to be 74% in this study. Conclusions ABV-guided volume management significantly reduced IHAAEs compared with standard care. The clinical relevance of the previously suggested threshold of 65 ml/kg cannot be firmly concluded on the basis of our results. If confirmed in a larger trial, this intervention could potentially change dialysis practice and impact patient care in a clinically meaningful way.

Abstract
The mortality rates for patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) remain unacceptably high compared to the general population, and more specific information about the causes of death is not known. The study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model that uses common clinical factors to predict the probability of cardiovascular events in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The study involved 3488 adult patients who received regular scheduled hemodialysis treatment at 20 hemodialysis centers in southwest China between June 2015 and August 2020, with follow-up until August 2021. The optimal parameter set was identified by multivariable Cox regression analyses and Cross-LASSO regression analyses and was used to establish a nomogram for predicting the risk of cardiovascular events in maintenance hemodialysis patients at 3 and 5 years. The performance of the model was evaluated using the consistency index (Harrell's C-index), the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration plots. The model was validated by tenfold cross-validation and bootstrapping with 1000 resamples. In the derivation cohort, the model yields an AUC of 0.764 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.737-0.790] and 0.793 [CI, 0.757-0.829] for predicting the risk of cardiovascular events of MHD patients at 3 and 5 years. In the internal validation cohort AUC of 0.803 [95% CI, 0.756-0.849], AUC of 0.766 [95% CI, 0.686-0.846], and the external validation cohort AUC of 0.826 [95% CI, 0.765-0.888], AUC of 0.817 [95% CI, 0.745-0.889] at 3 and 5 years. The model's calibration curve is close to the ideal diagonal. By tenfold cross-validation analyses, the 3- and 5-year risk of cardiovascular events (AUC 0.732 and 0.771, respectively). By the bootstrap resampling method, the derivation cohort and validation cohort (Harrell's C-index 0.695 and 0.667, respectively) showed good uniformity with the model. The constructed model accurately predicted cardiovascular events of MHD patients in the 3rd and 5th years after dialysis. And the further research is needed to determine whether use of the risk prediction tool improves clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is associated with mortality in adults with kidney failure requiring hemodialysis (HD); however, large-scale pediatric studies are lacking. Moreover, there is no evidence-based consensus definition of IDH in pediatric literature. We aimed to examine the association of commonly used definitions of IDH with mortality in adolescents and young adults. Study Design This was a retrospective observational cohort study. Setting & Participants In total, 1,199 adolescents and young adults (N = 320, aged 10-18 years and N = 879, aged 19-21 years) who initiated HD in a large dialysis organization were included. Exposures This study used different definitions of IDH. Outcome The study outcome was 2-year all-cause mortality. Analytical Approach Several definitions of IDH were selected a priori based on a literature review. Patients were classified as having IDH if it was present in at least 30% of HD treatments during the first 90 days after dialysis initiation. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to test whether IDH associated with 2-year all-cause mortality. Results Over a 2-year follow-up period, 54 (4.5%) patients died. Dependent on its definition, IDH was present in 2.9%-61.1% of patients. After the multivariable adjustment for sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, we found no association of IDH with mortality. Results were consistent across subgroups stratified by age (aged <18 and 19-21 years) and predialysis systolic blood pressure (<120, 120-150, and >150 mm Hg). We also examined IDH as occurring in <5%, 5%-29%, 30%-50%, and >50% of baseline treatments, and did not find a dose-response association with mortality (P > 0.05). Limitations Owing to low event rates, our current sample size may have been too small to detect a difference in mortality. Conclusions Our study found that IDH was not associated with mortality in adolescents and young adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Up to one third of survivors of AKI that required dialysis (AKI-D) during hospitalization remain dialysis dependent at hospital discharge. Of these, 20%-60%, depending on the clinical setting, eventually recover enough kidney function to stop dialysis, and the remainder progress to ESKD. METHODS To describe the challenges facing those still receiving dialysis on discharge, the AKINow Committee conducted a group discussion comprising 59 participants, including physicians, advanced practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, and patients. The discussion was framed by a patient who described gaps in care delivery at different transition points and miscommunication between care team members and the patient. RESULTS Group discussions collected patient perspectives of ( 1 ) being often scared and uncertain about what is happening to and around them and ( 2 ) the importance of effective and timely communication, a comfortable physical setting, and attentive and caring health care providers for a quality health care experience. Provider perspectives included ( 1 ) the recognition of the lack of evidence-based practices and quality indicators, the significant variability in current care models, and the uncertain reimbursement incentives focused on kidney recovery and ( 2 ) the urgency to address communication barriers among hospital providers and outpatient facilities. CONCLUSIONS The workgroup identified key areas for future research and policy change to ( 1 ) improve communication among hospital providers, dialysis units, and patients/care partners; ( 2 ) develop tools for risk classification, subphenotyping, and augmented clinical decision support; ( 3 ) improve education to providers, staff, and patients/care partners; ( 4 ) identify best practices to improve relevant outcomes; ( 5 ) validate quality indicators; and ( 6 ) assess the effect of social determinants of health on outcomes. We urge all stakeholders involved in the process of AKI-D care to align goals and work together to fill knowledge gaps and optimize the care to this highly vulnerable patient population.

Abstract
Background Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common hemodialysis complication causing adverse outcomes. Despite the well-documented associations of ambient temperatures with fluid removal and pre-dialysis blood pressure (BP), the relationship between ambient temperature and IDH has not been adequately studied. Methods We conducted a cohort study at a tertiary hospital in southern Taiwan between 1 January 2016 and 31 October 2021. The 24-h pre-hemodialysis mean ambient temperature was determined using hourly readings from the weather station closest to each patient's residence. IDH was defined using Fall40 [systolic BP (SBP) drop of ≥40 mmHg] or Nadir90/100 (SBP <100 if pre-dialysis SBP was ≥160, or SBP <90 mmHg). Multivariate logistic regression with generalizing estimating equations and mediation analysis were utilized. Results The study examined 110 400 hemodialysis sessions from 182 patients, finding an IDH prevalence of 11.8% and 10.4% as per the Fall40 and Nadir90/100 criteria, respectively. It revealed a reverse J-shaped relationship between ambient temperature and IDH, with a turning point around 27°C. For temperatures under 27°C, a 4°C drop significantly increased the odds ratio of IDH to 1.292 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.228 to 1.358] and 1.207 (95% CI 1.149 to 1.268) under the Fall40 and Nadir90/100 definitions, respectively. Lower ambient temperatures correlated with higher ultrafiltration, accounting for about 23% of the increased IDH risk. Stratified seasonal analysis indicated that this relationship was consistent in spring, autumn and winter. Conclusion Lower ambient temperature is significantly associated with an increased risk of IDH below the threshold of 27°C, irrespective of the IDH definition. This study provides further insight into environmental risk factors for IDH in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
Background Fluid overload is a common complication of the care of End-stage Renal Disease patients that may lead to prolonged hospitalization and mortality. This warrants an effective and systemic approach to early recognition and management to improve patient outcomes. Aim This study aims to evaluate the effect of a modified fluid assessment tool to improve accurate clinical assessments, detection, and management of blood pressure control and fluid alteration among hemodialysis patients. Methods In this retrospective study, data were collected from forty-three dialysis patients who were seen and followed up from a dialysis unit of an acute care hospital during 8 weeks of standard care. A modified assessment tool was used to systematically highlight the appropriateness of the patient set dry weight using intradialytic weight gain (IWDG) and patient blood pressure. Paired sample t-test and repeated measure ANOVA within-group analysis were applied to compare the mean difference score for IDWG and the mean arterial pressure within the study group, respectively. Result A total of 43 patients were enrolled (mean age, 59.07) (ranges 27-88 years) (SD - 14.30); 51.16% female; 79% Emirati Nationals, with Chronic Kidney Disease. A repeated measure ANOVA analysis showed a significant difference in the mean arterial pressure within the study group based on time, over six measurements (p = 0.001). However, the difference between the pre- and post-intra-dialytic weight gain mean scores yields insignificant results (p = 0.346). Conclusion The implementation of a modified assessment tool improved blood pressure control, increased staff and physician involvement in assessing patient dry weight facilitated through fluid status evaluation, methodical assessment of dry weight, and precise fluid removal calculation, enhancing overall blood pressure and fluid management in HD patients.

Electrolyte Blood Press 2023; 21:53-60. [PMID: 38152598 PMCID: PMC10751209 DOI: 10.5049/ebp.2023.21.2.53] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Most hemodialysis (HD) patients suffer from hypertension and have a heightened cardiovascular risk. While blood pressure (BP) control is essential to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients, overly stringent control can lead to intradialytic hypotension (IDH). This study aimed to examine BP variations during and after HD to determine whether these variations correlate with IDH risk. Methods BP measurements during dialysis were taken from 28 ESKD patients, and ambulatory BP monitoring was applied post-dialysis. Laboratory parameters and risk factors, including diabetes, coronary disease, and LV mass index, were compared between IDH and non-IDH groups using an independent t-test. Results Of the 28 patients with an average age of 57.4 years, 16 (57.1%) had diabetes, 5 (17.9%) had coronary artery disease, and 1 (3.6%) had cerebrovascular disease. The mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) during and post-HD was 142.26 mmHg and 156.05 mmHg, respectively (p=0.0003). Similarly, the mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) also demonstrated a significant increase, from 74.59 mmHg during HD to 86.82 mmHg post-HD (p<0.0001). Patients with IDH exhibited a more substantial SBP difference (delta SBP, 36.38 vs. 15.07 mmHg, p=0.0033; age-adjusted OR=1.58, p=0.0168) and a lower post-dialysis BUN level (12.75 vs. 18.77 mg/dL, p=0.0015; age-adjusted OR=0.76, p=0.0242). No significant variations were observed in daytime and nocturnal BP between the IDH and non-IDH groups. Conclusion Hemodialysis patients exhibited a marked increase in post-dialysis BP and lacked a nocturnal BP dip, suggesting augmented cardiovascular risks. This highlights the importance of more stringent BP control after hemodialysis.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:18054. [PMID: 37872390 PMCID: PMC10593747 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-45282-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Both intradialytic hypotension (IDH) and hypertension (IDHTN) are associated with poor outcomes in hemodialysis patients, but a model predicting dual outcomes in real-time has never been developed. Herein, we developed an explainable deep learning model with a sequence-to-sequence-based attention network to predict both of these events simultaneously. We retrieved 302,774 hemodialysis sessions from the electronic health records of 11,110 patients, and these sessions were split into training (70%), validation (10%), and test (20%) datasets through patient randomization. The outcomes were defined when nadir systolic blood pressure (BP) < 90 mmHg (termed IDH-1), a decrease in systolic BP ≥ 20 mmHg and/or a decrease in mean arterial pressure ≥ 10 mmHg (termed IDH-2), or an increase in systolic BP ≥ 10 mmHg (i.e., IDHTN) occurred within 1 h. We developed a temporal fusion transformer (TFT)-based model and compared its performance in the test dataset, including receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) and area under the precision-recall curves (AUPRC), with those of other machine learning models, such as recurrent neural network, light gradient boosting machine, random forest, and logistic regression. Among all models, the TFT-based model achieved the highest AUROCs of 0.953 (0.952-0.954), 0.892 (0.891-0.893), and 0.889 (0.888-0.890) in predicting IDH-1, IDH-2, and IDHTN, respectively. The AUPRCs in the TFT-based model for these outcomes were higher than the other models. The factors that contributed the most to the prediction were age and previous session, which were time-invariant variables, as well as systolic BP and elapsed time, which were time-varying variables. The present TFT-based model predicts both IDH and IDHTN in real time and offers explainable variable importance.

Abstract
Introduction Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is prevalent and associated with high hospitalization and mortality rates. The purpose of this study was to explore the risk factors for IDH and use artificial intelligence to establish an early alert system before hemodialysis sessions to identify patients at high risk of IDH. Materials and Methods We obtained data on 314,534 hemodialysis sessions conducted at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from the renal disease treatment information system. IDH was defined as a systolic blood pressure drop ≥20 mm Hg, a mean arterial pressure drop ≥10 mm Hg during dialysis, or the occurrence of clinical hypotensive events requiring nursing intervention. After pre-processing, the data were randomly divided into training (80%) and testing (20%) sets. Four interpolation methods, three feature selection methods, and 18 machine learning algorithms were used to construct predictive models. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was the main indicator for evaluating the performance of the models, while Shapley Additive ExPlanation was used to explain the contribution of each variable to the best predictive model. Results A total of 3,906 patients and 314,534 dialysis sessions were included, of which 142,237 cases showed IDH (incidence rate, 45.2%). Nineteen parameters were identified through artificial intelligence feature screening. They included age, pre-dialysis weight, dry weight, pre-dialysis blood pressure, heart rate, prescribed ultrafiltration, blood cell counts (neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, lymphocyte, and platelet counts), hematocrit, serum calcium, creatinine, urea, glucose, and uric acid. Random forest, gradient boosting, and logistic regression were the three best models, and the AUCs were 0.812 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.811-0.813), 0.748 (95% CI, 0.747-0.749), and 0.743 (95% CI, 0.742-0.744), respectively. Conclusion Our dialysis software-based artificial intelligence alert system can be used to predict IDH occurrence, enabling the initiation of relevant interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is closely associated with adverse clinical outcomes in HD-patients. An IDH predictor model is important for IDH risk screening and clinical decision-making. In this study, we used Machine learning (ML) to develop IDH model for risk prediction in HD patients. METHODS 62,227 dialysis sessions were randomly partitioned into training data (70%), test data (20%), and validation data (10%). IDH-A model based on twenty-seven variables was constructed for risk prediction for the next HD treatment. IDH-B model based on ten variables from 64,870 dialysis sessions was developed for risk assessment before each HD treatment. Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM), Linear Discriminant Analysis, support vector machines, XGBoost, TabNet, and multilayer perceptron were used to develop the predictor model. RESULTS In IDH-A model, we identified the LightGBM method as the best-performing and interpretable model with C- statistics of 0.82 in Fall30Nadir90 definitions, which was higher than those obtained using the other models (P<0.01). In other IDH standards of Nadir90, Nadir100, Fall20, Fall30, and Fall20Nadir90, the LightGBM method had a performance with C- statistics ranged 0.77 to 0.89. As a complementary application, the LightGBM model in IDH-B model achieved C- statistics of 0.68 in Fall30Nadir90 definitions and 0.69 to 0.78 in the other five IDH standards, which were also higher than the other methods, respectively. CONCLUSION Use ML, we identified the LightGBM method as the good-performing and interpretable model. We identified the top variables as the high-risk factors for IDH incident in HD-patient. IDH-A and IDH-B model can usefully complement each other for risk prediction and further facilitate timely intervention through applied into different clinical setting.

Abstract
In patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing dialysis, hypertension is common but often inadequately controlled. The prevalence of hypertension varies widely among studies because of differences in the definition of hypertension and the methods of used to measure blood pressure (BP), i.e., peri-dialysis or ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). Recently, ABPM has become the gold standard for diagnosing hypertension in dialysis patients. Home BP monitoring can also be a good alternative to ABPM, emphasizing BP measurement outside the hemodialysis (HD) unit. One thing for sure is pre- and post-dialysis BP measurements should not be used alone to diagnose and manage hypertension in dialysis patients. The exact target of BP and the relationship between BP and all-cause mortality or cause-specific mortality are unclear in this population. Many observational studies with HD cohorts have almost universally reported a U-shaped or even an L-shaped association between BP and all-cause mortality, but most of these data are based on the BP measured in HD units. Some data with ABPM have shown a linear association between BP and mortality even in HD patients, similar to the general population. Supporting this, the results of meta-analysis have shown a clear benefit of BP reduction in HD patients. Therefore, further research is needed to determine the optimal target BP in the dialysis population, and for now, an individualized approach is appropriate, with particular emphasis on avoiding excessively low BP. Maintaining euvolemia is of paramount importance for BP control in dialysis patients. Patient heterogeneity and the lack of comparative evidence preclude the recommendation of one class of medication over another for all patients. Recently, however, β-blockers could be considered as a first-line therapy in dialysis patients, as they can reduce sympathetic overactivity and left ventricular hypertrophy, which contribute to the high incidence of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Several studies with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have also reported promising results in reducing mortality in dialysis patients. However, safety issues such as hyperkalemia or hypotension should be further evaluated before their use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated venous pressure during hemodialysis (VPHD) is associated with arteriovenous graft (AVG) stenosis. This study investigated the role of VPHD variations in the prediction of impending AVG occlusion. METHODS Data were retrieved from 118 operations to treat AVG occlusion (occlusion group) and 149 operations to treat significant AVG stenosis (stenosis group). In addition to analyzing the VPHD values for the three hemodialysis (HD) sessions prior to the intervention, VPHD values were normalized to mean blood pressure (MBP), blood flow rate (BFR), BFR × MBP, and BFR2 × MBP to yield ratios for analysis. The coefficient of variation (CV) was used to measure relative variations. RESULTS The within-group comparisons for both groups revealed no significant differences in the VPHD mean and CV values among the three HD sessions prior to intervention. However, the CVs for VPHD/MBP, VPHD/(BFR × MBP), and VPHD/(BFR2 × MBP) exhibited significant elevation in the occlusion group during the last HD session prior to intervention compared with both the penultimate and antepenultimate within-group HD data (p < 0.05). In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the CV for VPHD/(BFR2 × MBP) was the only parameter able to discriminate between the last and the penultimate HD outcomes (p < 0.001). According to a multivariate analysis, after controlling for covariates, CV for VPHD/(BFR2 × MBP) >8.76% was associated with a higher risk of AVG thrombosis (odds ratio: 3.17, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Increasing the variation in VPHD/(BFR2 × MBP) may increase the probability of AVG occlusion.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Hemodialysis (HD) can lead to acute left ventricular (LV) myocardial wall motion abnormalities (myocardial stunning) due to segmental hypoperfusion. Exercise during dialysis is associated with favorable effects on central hemodynamics and BP stability, factors considered in the etiology of HD-induced myocardial stunning. In a speckle-tracking echocardiography analysis, the authors explored effects of acute intradialytic exercise (IDE) on LV regional myocardial function in 60 patients undergoing HD. They found beneficial effects of IDE on LV longitudinal and circumferential function and on torsional mechanics, not accounted for by cardiac loading conditions or central hemodynamics. These findings support the implementation of IDE in people with ESKD, given that LV transient dysfunction imposed by repetitive HD may contribute to heart failure and increased risk of cardiac events in such patients. BACKGROUND Hemodialysis (HD) induces left ventricular (LV) transient myocardial dysfunction. A complex interplay between linear deformations and torsional mechanics underlies LV myocardial performance. Although intradialytic exercise (IDE) induces favorable effects on central hemodynamics, its effect on myocardial mechanics has never been comprehensively documented. METHODS To evaluate the effects of IDE on LV myocardial mechanics, assessed by speckle-tracking echocardiography, we conducted a prospective, open-label, two-center randomized crossover trial. We enrolled 60 individuals with ESKD receiving HD, who were assigned to participate in two sessions performed in a randomized order: standard HD and HD incorporating 30 minutes of aerobic exercise (HDEX). We measured global longitudinal strain (GLS) at baseline (T0), 90 minutes after HD onset (T1), and 30 minutes before ending HD (T2). At T0 and T2, we also measured circumferential strain and twist, calculated as the net difference between apical and basal rotations. Central hemodynamic data (BP, cardiac output) also were collected. RESULTS The decline in GLS observed during the HD procedure was attenuated in the HDEX sessions (estimated difference, -1.16%; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], -0.31 to -2.02; P = 0.008). Compared with HD, HDEX also demonstrated greater improvements from T0 to T2 in twist, an important component of LV myocardial function (estimated difference, 2.48°; 95% CI, 0.30 to 4.65; P = 0.02). Differences in changes from T0 to T2 for cardiac loading and intradialytic hemodynamics did not account for the beneficial effects of IDE on LV myocardial mechanics kinetics. CONCLUSIONS IDE applied acutely during HD improves regional myocardial mechanics and might warrant consideration in the therapeutic approach for patients on HD.

Abstract
Introduction The function of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is crucial in the development of intradialytic hypotension (IDH). This study introduced the entropy of heart rate variability (HRV) and skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) to provide a complementary nonlinear and dynamic perspective for evaluating ANS function concerning IDH. Methods 93 patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) were enrolled, and the baseline data, electrocardiogram (ECG), and SKNA were collected. The patients were separated into the IDH and nonIDH groups based on the thresholds, which were characterized as reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP) of at least 20 mm Hg or mean arterial pressure (MAP) of at least 10 mm Hg. We developed a logistic regression model for IDH after analyzing the changes in the time domain, frequency domain, the entropy of HRV, and SKNA indices during HD. Results After 4-h HD, the detected results for heart rate, the ratio of low frequency and high frequency (LF/HF), and average SKNA (aSKNA) all increased in both groups. Nine out of the ten HRV indices and aSKNA in the nonIDH group were higher than those in the IDH group at most moments. aSKNA was positively correlated with heart rate (p = 0.0001) and LF/HF (p = 0.0005) in the nonIDH group, while the correlation disappeared in the IDH group, which indicated a worse ANS response in IDH patients. The logistic regression model exhibited the results of initial SBP [odds ratio (OR) 1.076; p = 0.001], and the difference between the last and first segments (DLF) of heart rate [OR 1.101; p =0.012] and LF/HF [OR 0.209; p =0.034], as well as the extreme value of the difference between other segments and the first segments (EOF) of aSKNA [OR 2.908; p =0.017], which were independent indicators for IDH. Discussion The new nonlinear and dynamic assessment perspectives provided by the entropy of HRV and SKNA help to distinguish differences in ANS patterns between IDH patients and nonIDH patients and have the potential to be used in clinical monitoring for HD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common clinical complication and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). The pathogenesis of IDH has been attributed to the rapid reduction of plasma volume during hemodialysis and the inadequate compensatory mechanisms in response to hypovolemia, such as the lack of vasoconstriction. This may be due to the increased production of vasodilators, such as bradykinin. In this study we test the hypothesis that bradykinin B2 receptor blockade prevents intradialytic hypotension. METHODS We performed a post-hoc analysis of a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, 2 × 2 crossover clinical trial comparing the continuous infusion of icatibant, a bradykinin B2 receptor blocker, and placebo during hemodialysis. Icatibant or placebo was infused for 30 min before and during hemodialysis in 11 patients on MHD. RESULTS Seven of the patients had IDH, defined as a reduction of systolic blood pressure equal to or greater than 20 mmHg during hemodialysis. Stratified analysis, based on the presence of IDH, revealed that icatibant prevented the decrease in blood pressure compared to placebo in patients with IDH [blood pressure at average nadir (2.5 h after hemodialysis): Placebo,114.3 ± 8.9 vs. icatibant, 125.6 ± 9.1 mmHg, mean ± S.E.M]. Icatibant did not affect blood pressure in the group of patients without IDH. CONCLUSION Bradykinin B2 receptor blocker may prevent the occurrence of IDH. Further studies should evaluate the hemodynamic effects of icatibant during hemodialysis and the symptomatology associated with IDH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal management of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis with severe coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been determined. METHODS Between 2013 and 2017, all patients with ESRD on dialysis who had left main (LM) disease, triple vessel disease (TVD) and/or severe CAD for consideration of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) were included. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on final treatment modality: CABG, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), optimal medical therapy (OMT). Outcome measures include in-hospital, 180-day, 1-year and overall mortality and major adverse cardiac events (MACE). RESULTS In total, 418 patients were included (CABG 11.0%, PCI 65.6%, OMT 23.4%). Overall, 1-year mortality and MACE rates were 27.5% and 55.0% respectively. Patients who underwent CABG were significantly younger, more likely to have LM disease and have no prior heart failure. In this non-randomized setting, treatment modality did not impact on 1-year mortality, although the CABG group had significantly lower 1-year MACE rates (CABG 32.6%, PCI 57.3%, OMT 59.2%; CABG vs. OMT p < 0.01, CABG vs. PCI p < 0.001). Independent predictors of overall mortality include STEMI presentation (HR 2.31, 95% CI 1.38-3.86), prior heart failure (HR 1.84, 95% CI 1.22-2.75), LM disease (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.26-2.31), NSTE-ACS presentation (HR 1.40, 95% CI 1.03-1.91) and increased age (HR 1.02, 95% CI 1.01-1.04). CONCLUSION Treatment decisions for patients with severe CAD with ESRD on dialysis are complex. Understanding independent predictors of mortality and MACE in specific treatment subgroups may provide valuable insights into the selection of optimal treatment options.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication in patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy. No consensus on the definition of intradialytic hypotension has been established so far. As a result, coherent and consistent evaluation of its effects and causes is difficult. Some studies have highlighted existing correlations between certain definitions of IDH and the risk of mortality for the patients. This work is mainly focused on these definitions. Our aim is to understand if different IDH definitions, all correlated with increased mortality risk, catch the same onset mechanisms or dynamics. To check whether the dynamics captured by these definitions are similar, we performed analyses of the incidence, of the IDH event onset timing, and checked whether there were similarities between the definitions in those aspects. We evaluated how these definitions overlap with each other and we evaluated which common factors could allow identifying patients at risk of IDH at the beginning of a dialysis session. The definitions of IDH we analyzed through statistical and machine learning approaches, showed a variable incidence on the HD sessions and had different onset time. We found that the set of parameters relevant for the prediction of the IDH was not always the same for the definitions considered. However, it can be observed that some predictors, such as the presence of comorbidities such as diabetes or heart disease, and a low pre-dialysis diastolic blood pressure, have shown universal relevance in highlighting an increased risk of IDH during the treatment. Among those parameters, the one that showed a major importance is the diabetes status of the patients. Diabetes or heart disease presence are permanent risk factors pointing out an increased IDH risk during the treatments, while, pre-dialysis diastolic blood pressure is instead a parameter that can change at every session and should be used to evaluate the specific risk to develop IDH for each session. The identified parameters could be used in the future to train more complex prediction models.

Enhancing the Cardiovascular Safety of Hemodialysis Care Using Multimodal Provider Education and Patient Activation Interventions: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial. JMIR Res Protoc 2023; 12:e46187.

Abstract
BACKGROUND End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is treated with dialysis or kidney transplantation, with most patients with ESKD receiving in-center hemodialysis treatment. This life-saving treatment can result in cardiovascular and hemodynamic instability, with the most common form being low blood pressure during the dialysis treatment (intradialytic hypotension [IDH]). IDH is a complication of hemodialysis that can involve symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, cramping, and loss of consciousness. IDH increases risks of cardiovascular disease and ultimately hospitalizations and mortality. Provider-level and patient-level decisions influence the occurrence of IDH; thus, IDH may be preventable in routine hemodialysis care. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the independent and comparative effectiveness of 2 interventions-one directed at hemodialysis providers and another for patients-in reducing the rate of IDH at hemodialysis facilities. In addition, the study will assess the effects of interventions on secondary patient-centered clinical outcomes and examine factors associated with a successful implementation of the interventions. METHODS This study is a pragmatic, cluster randomized trial to be conducted in 20 hemodialysis facilities in the United States. Hemodialysis facilities will be randomized using a 2 × 2 factorial design, such that 5 sites will receive a multimodal provider education intervention, 5 sites will receive a patient activation intervention, 5 sites will receive both interventions, and 5 sites will receive none of the 2 interventions. The multimodal provider education intervention involved theory-informed team training and the use of a digital, tablet-based checklist to heighten attention to patient clinical factors associated with increased IDH risk. The patient activation intervention involves tablet-based, theory-informed patient education and peer mentoring. Patient outcomes will be monitored during a 12-week baseline period, followed by a 24-week intervention period and a 12-week postintervention follow-up period. The primary outcome of the study is the proportion of treatments with IDH, which will be aggregated at the facility level. Secondary outcomes include patient symptoms, fluid adherence, hemodialysis adherence, quality of life, hospitalizations, and mortality. RESULTS This study is funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute and approved by the University of Michigan Medical School's institutional review board. The study began enrolling patients in January 2023. Initial feasibility data will be available in May 2023. Data collection will conclude in November 2024. CONCLUSIONS The effects of provider and patient education on reducing the proportion of sessions with IDH and improving other patient-centered clinical outcomes will be evaluated, and the findings will be used to inform further improvements in patient care. Improving the stability of hemodialysis sessions is a critical concern for clinicians and patients with ESKD; the interventions targeted to providers and patients are predicted to lead to improvements in patient health and quality of life.

Abstract
This study included 152 hemodialysis patients (mean age, 69 years; 34.2% female) and investigated serial changes in blood pressure (BP) and arterial stiffness indices during hemodialysis using an oscillometric device, SphygmoCor XCEL, and examined whether assessment of the arterial waveform has clinical implications for the management of intradialytic hypotension (IDH). Measurement was performed every 30 min during hemodialysis, and the threshold defining IDH was systolic BP (SBP) decrease ≥40 mmHg or a requirement for antihypotensive medication in all patients and ≥ the 75th percentile of maximum SBP decrease during hemodialysis (≥34 mmHg) in the subgroup without antihypotensive medication (n = 98). In all patients, a 1-standard deviation (SD) increase in the baseline subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR), an index of myocardial perfusion, was an independent predictor of IDH (odds ratio [OR] 0.43, p < 0.001). In the subgroup analysis, a serial change in SBP and all arterial waveform indices, including the augmentation index, augmented pressure (AP), and SEVR, during hemodialysis were greater for IDH than for non-IDH patients (all p < 0.01 by 2-way repeated-measures ANOVA), with the exception of heart rate (p = 0.40) and diastolic pressure time index (p = 0.21). Diabetes (OR 4.08), a 1-SD increase in ultrafiltration rate (OR 2.07), fractional shortening (OR 0.45), baseline SEVR (OR 0.36) and the first 1-h percent change in AP (OR 0.52) were independent predictors of IDH (all p < 0.05). In conclusion, impaired myocardial perfusion and increased arterial stiffness, particularly poor arteriolar responsiveness to acute dialysis-related changes, are associated with IDH, and predialysis SEVR evaluation can complement screening for IDH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a frequent complication of hemodialysis (HD). Current methods of IDH prevention are insufficient. METHODS We analyzed the intradialytic time course of systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), mean arterial (MAP), pulse pressure (PP), and heart rate (HR) in a group of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. First, 30 min into HD, a 40% glucose solution was injected into the venous line of the extracorporeal circulation at a dose of 0.5 g/kg of dry weight. Pressures and HR were measured in frequent intervals. Relative volume overload was determined by bioimpedance spectroscopy. RESULTS Thirty-five participants were studied. SBP increased after 5, 10, and 20 min of glucose infusion. DBP increased after 2 and 3 h and also at the end of HD. PP increased after 5, 10, and 20 min of glucose infusion and fell after the 2nd and 3rd hour and also at the end of HD. MAP increased after 2 and 3 h of glucose injection and at the end of HD. Significant interactions of the time course of SBP, DBP, MAP, with HR at baseline and of the time course of PP with fluid overload were observed. Symptomatic hypotensive episodes were absent. CONCLUSIONS Glucose infusions during HD prevent symptomatic IDH and do not cause severe hypertensive episodes.

Circumferential Strain as a Marker of Vessel Reactivity in Patients with Intradialytic Hypotension. Medicina (B Aires) 2023; 59:medicina59010102.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) complicates 4 to 39.9% of hemodialysis (HD) sessions. Vessels' reactivity disturbances may be responsible for this complication. Two-dimensional speckle tracking is used to assess arterial circumferential strain (CS) as a marker of the effectiveness of the cardiovascular response to the reduction of circulating plasma. Materials and Methods: The common carotid artery (CCA) and common iliac artery (CIA) CSs were recorded using ultrasonography in 68 chronically dialyzed patients before and after one HD session. Results: In patients with IDH episodes (n = 26), the CCA-CS was significantly lower both before (6.28 ± 2.34 vs. 4.63 ± 1.74 p = 0.003) and after HD (5.00 (3.53-6.78) vs. 3.79 ± 1.47 p = 0.010) than it was in patients without this complication. No relationship was observed between CIA-CS and IDH. IDH patients had a significantly higher UF rate; however, they did not differ compared to complication-free patients either in anthropometric or laboratory parameters. Conclusions: Patients with IDH were characterized by lower pre- and post-HD circumferential strain of the common carotid artery. The lower CCA-CS showed that impaired vascular reactivity is one of the most important risk factors for this complication's occurrence.

Abstract
Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality occur with an extraordinarily high incidence in the hemodialysis-dependent end-stage kidney disease population. There is a clear need to improve identification of those individuals at the highest risk of cardiovascular complications in order to better target them for preventative therapies. Twelve-lead electrocardiograms are ubiquitous and use inexpensive technology that can be administered with minimal inconvenience to patients and at a minimal burden to care providers. The embedded waveforms encode significant information on the cardiovascular structure and function that might be unlocked and used to identify at-risk individuals with the use of artificial intelligence techniques like deep learning. In this review, we discuss the experience with deep learning-based analysis of electrocardiograms to identify cardiovascular abnormalities or risk and the potential to extend this to the setting of dialysis-dependent end-stage kidney disease.

Abstract
The main objective of this project was to evaluate the efficiency of two kinds of nutritional intervention implemented in hemodialysis patients for 24 weeks (traditional nutritional intervention without a meal served before dialysis for group HG1, and nutritional intervention involving a meal served before dialysis for group HG2), and their impact on nutritional status and serum concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP). Nutritional status and serum biochemical parameters were analyzed in the control group (CG, n = 70) and in two homogeneous groups of patients, HG1 (n = 35) and HG2 (n = 35). There was an interesting trend in both groups of patients connected with increased intake, mainly of energy and protein. In HG1, the greatest increase in energy intake was observed on Sundays, and in HG2 on the days with dialysis. In HG2, after 24 weeks of the nutritional intervention, an increase in serum albumin (p = 0.0157) and a decrease in CRP concentration (p = 0.0306) were observed, whereas in HG1 there was a decrease in serum albumin concentration (p = 0.0043) with no significant change in CRP concentration. The nutritional intervention applied, called the Malnutrition-Eat Additional Meal (MEAM) diet with an easily digestible meal served before dialysis, was aimed at improving the patients' nutritional status and the obtained results indicate the need not only for substantial reeducation of hemodialysis patients in the area of their diet, but also for undertaking further research and discussions on the possibility of ensuring adequate meals for hemodialysis patients before the dialysis procedure.

Chinese Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management of "CKD-PeriDialysis"-the Periods Prior to and in the Early-Stage of Initial Dialysis. Kidney Int Rep 2022; 7:S531-S558. [PMID: 36567827 PMCID: PMC9782818 DOI: 10.1016/j.ekir.2022.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The National Experts Group on Nephrology have developed these guidelines to improve the management of pre-dialysis and initial dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (two periods contiguous with dialysis initiation termed here 'PeriDialysis CKD'). The pre-dialysis period is variable, whereas the initial dialysis period is more fixed at 3 months to 6 months after initiating dialysis. The new concept and characteristics of 'CKD-PeriDialysis' are proposed in the guideline. During the CKD-PeriDialysis period, the incidence rate of complications, mortality and treatment cost significantly increases and the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) rapidly decreases, which requires intensive management. The guideline systematically and comprehensively elaborates the recommendations for indicators to be used in for disease evaluation, timing and mode selection of renal replacement therapy, dialysis adequacy evaluation, and diagnosis and treatment of common PeriDialysis complications. Finally, future research directions of CKD-PeriDialysis are proposed. CKD-PeriDialysis management is a difficult clinical issue in kidney disease, and the development and implementation of these guidelines is important to improve the management of CKD-PeriDialysis patients in China, which could ultimately improve survival rates and quality of life, and reduce the medical burden.

Pre-Dialysis B-Line Quantification at Lung Ultrasound Is a Useful Method for Evaluating the Dry Weight and Predicting the Risk of Intradialytic Hypotension. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12122990. [PMID: 36552997 PMCID: PMC9776885 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12122990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a frequent and well-known complication of hemodialysis, occurring in about one third of patients. An integrated approach with different methods is needed to minimize IDH episodes and their complications. In this prospective observational study, recruited patients underwent a multiparametric evaluation of fluid status through a lung ultrasound (LUS) with the quantification of B-lines, a physical examination, blood pressure, NT-proBNP and chest X-rays. The evaluation took place immediately before and at the end of the dialysis session, and the patients were divided into IDH and no-IDH groups. We recruited a total of 107 patients. A pre-dialysis B-line number ≥ 15 showed a high sensitivity in fluid overload diagnosis (94.5%), even higher than a chest X-ray (78%) or physical examination (72%) alone. The identification at the beginning of dialysis of <8 B-lines in the overall cohort or <20 B-lines in patients with NYHA 3−4 class are optimal thresholds for identifying those patients at higher risk of experiencing an IDH episode. In the multivariable analysis, the NYHA class, a low pre-dialysis systolic BP and a low pre-dialysis B-line number were independent risk factors for IDH. At the beginning of dialysis, the B-line quantification at LUS is a valuable and reliable method for evaluating fluid status and predicting IDH episodes. A post-dialysis B-line number <5 may allow for an understanding of whether the IDH episode was caused by dehydration, probably due to due to an overestimation of the dry weight.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this article, we summarize recent advances in understanding hypertension and cardiovascular disease in patients with end-stage kidney disease. RECENT FINDINGS Factors such as anemia, valvular and vascular calcification, vasoconstrictors, uremic toxins, hypoglycemia, carbamylated proteins, oxidative stress, and inflammation have all been associated with the progression of cardiovascular disease in end-stage kidney disease but the causality of these mechanisms has not been proven. The high risk of cardiovascular mortality has not improved as in the general population despite many advancements in cardiovascular care over the last two decades. Mechanisms that increase hypertension risk in these patients are centered on the control of extracellular fluid volume; however, over-correction of volume with dialysis can increase risks of intradialytic hypotension and death in these patients. This review presents both recent and classic work that increases our understanding of hypertension and cardiovascular disease in end-stage kidney disease.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) still represents the main complication during dialysis treatment. Patient's discomfort, reduced dialysis efficiency, reduced treatment time are only some of the main problems that could derive from the need to stop or temporarily interrupt the treatment because of IDH. Up to now, different types of treatment (HDF, HF, or AFB) have been considered to prevent IDH as well as the use of biofeedback systems (Blood Volume Monitoring, Temperature control, Sodium profiling, Blood Pressure monitoring). Recently a new biofeedback system (Biologic Fusion®) controlling simultaneously blood pressure (BP) and relative blood volume changes (RBV) has been developed to prevent IDH. This system runs according to fuzzy logic. We describe how this system works and to a better understanding, we report a clinical case of a patient with frequent IDH treated with the use of this system.

Prevalence of Overhydration in Patients on Maintenance Haemodialysis As Determined by Body Composition Monitor and Effects of Attaining Target Dry Weight. Cureus 2022; 14:e29509.

Abstract
Introduction: Fluid overload in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality. The volume of ultrafiltrate removed during haemodialysis is usually assessed clinically. Assessment of overhydration by body composition monitor (BCM) using bioimpedance spectroscopy is an objective method. This study was conducted to identify the prevalence of overhydration in CKD patients on maintenance haemodialysis and thereby assess the effects of BCM targeted dry weight attainment. Methods: All patients included in the study were assessed for one month before enrolment for blood pressure, intradialytic events during each dialysis and BP medications. Overhydration was defined as the ratio of overhydration to extracellular water (OH/ECW) > 1.1. Overhydrated patients were brought to BCM targeted dry weight by increasing ultrafiltrate to 500mL/week more than their routine intradialytic weight gain. The effect of attaining BCM target dry weight on blood pressure and intradialytic events were analysed. Results: Out of 110 patients, overhydration was seen in 30 (27.2%); only 20 had clinically evident overhydration. Body composition monitor guided dry weight was achieved in 28 of the 30 patients after a mean duration of 20 weeks. After achieving the target dry weight, there was a significant reduction in intradialytic hypertension events (2.37 vs 1.82 events per session, p-value 0.01). Surprisingly, there was a reduction in episodes of intradialytic hypotension as well, though this did not reach statistical significance. There was a clinically significant reduction in mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures (mean of 5.7mmHg and 2.8mmHg, respectively). Conclusion: The study underlines the importance of BCM-based hydration status assessment and target dry weight attainment in better control of intradialytic events and blood pressure in patients on maintenance haemodialysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In addition to an increase in the prevalence of dialysis treatments for end-stage renal disease worldwide, the mortality rates among patients on maintenance hemodialysis remain higher than that of the general population. This study aims to evaluate factors associated with long-term survival in stable maintenance hemodialysis patients. METHODS A total of 100 patients initiating hemodialysis by February 2013 were included in this prospective cross-sectional 5-year follow-up study. Data on patient demographics, anthropometric-nutritional parameters, systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels, and hemodialysis parameters, including etiology of kidney failure, hemodialysis duration, peritoneal dialysis history, relative interdialytic weight gain (RIDWG), and Kt/V, were recorded. RESULTS Overall 5-year survival rate was 56.6%. The 5-year survival rate was higher in patients with younger age (71.4% below median vs. 42.0% above median, p=0.023), lower systolic (63.3 vs. 50%, respectively, p=0.005) and diastolic (62.5 vs. 51.0%, respectively, p=0.02) blood pressure levels, higher Kt/V (46.9 vs. 66.0%, respectively, p=0.044), lower RIDWG (54.0 vs. 32.7%, respectively, p=0.026), and lower serum leptin levels (63.3 vs. 50.0%, respectively, p=0.047). Cox-regression analysis revealed that only systolic blood pressure (B = 1.081, 95% CI, 0.152 to 0.756, p=0.08) was a significant risk factor for poor survival. CONCLUSION Our findings revealed pre-dialysis systolic blood pressure as the sole risk factor for poor long-term survival in stable maintenance hemodialysis patients. Malnutrition-inflammation, measures of nutrition, inflammation, and anemia had no significant impact on long-term survival.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thrice weekly hemodialysis (HD) is currently the norm in high income countries but there is mounting interest in twice weekly HD in certain settings. We performed this systematic review to summarize the available evidence comparing twice to thrice weekly HD. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed in Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to identify cohort and randomized controlled trials evaluating outcomes of twice versus thrice weekly HD. The bibliographies of identified studies were hand searched to find any additional studies. Risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for observational studies. FINDINGS No randomized controlled trials and 21 cohort studies were identified. Overall study quality was modest with high risk of selection bias and inadequate controlling for confounders. The most commonly evaluated outcome measures were survival and residual kidney function. No studies assessed quality of life. Study results were variable and there was no clear signal for overwhelming risk or benefit of twice versus thrice weekly HD with the exception of residual kidney function which consistently showed slower decline in the twice weekly group. DISCUSSION There is a paucity of high quality data comparing the risks and benefits of twice vs thrice weekly HD. Randomized controlled trial evidence is required to inform clinicians and HD prescription guidelines.

Abstract
L’hémodialyse (HD) Longue Nocturne (HDLN) intermittente permet de combiner dialyse et sommeil. Ses avantages cliniques sont une vitesse d’ultrafiltration réduite, un meilleur contrôle de la volémie avec amélioration de la tolérance des séances et des performances cardiaques, une phosphatémie et des moyennes molécules mieux épurées et une meilleure survie dans les études de cohortes. La qualité de vie n’est pas altérée par la longueur des séances et elle s’améliore quand elle n’est pas optimale lors du transfert de l’HD standard vers l’HDLN. La qualité du sommeil n’est parfois perturbée mais elle n’est pas une cause importante de sortie du programme. La pérennité d’un programme d’HDLN passe par les volontés conjointes médicales et managériales, la sélection des patients stables, le respect des horaires et de la durée de séances, indispensable à la dialyse de sommeil. Les autorités de santé doivent jouer un rôle pour permettre cette modalité dans des conditions financières acceptables. L’information au patient de l’existence de l’HDLN avant le stade de la dialyse est essentielle, aidée par le témoignage des pairs. Les sociétés savantes doivent soutenir la recherche et l’information aux néphrologues. Enfin les conditions architecturales favorisant l’intimité et le sommeil sont une clé de réussite du programme.

Abstract
Background Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) has been recognized as a serious and frequent complication during hemodialysis (HD) of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, but the effect of asymptomatic IDH on cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels is not definitively elucidated. Methods 70 asymptomatic HD patients with negative predialysis cTnI were included. They were on maintenance HD thrice weekly. All patients were monitored during the HD session for hemodynamic changes and symptoms related to IDH. Patients were followed for two years, and their outcomes are noted as an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), cardiac death, no ACS, noncardiac death, and kidney transplant. Results Compared with the baseline blood pressure values, there was a drop in systolic blood pressure for all subjects, but according to the 2007 European Best Practice Guidelines on hemodynamic instability, asymptomatic IDH was defined in 27 (38.6%) patients. The results demonstrated a significant correlation (r = 0.492) (p < 0.05) between asymptomatic IDH and elevated postdialysis levels of cTnI. In 2-year follow-up of patients, ACS and cardiac death happened more in patients with elevated cTnI. Conclusion The results of our study suggest that asymptomatic IDH affects cTnI levels. Given that cTnI is a marker of myocardial damage and a predictor of cardiovascular mortality in ESRD patients, these findings recommend that considering the asymptomatic decrease in blood pressure levels during HD is very important and critical.

Abstract
Objective Previously developed Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) prediction models utilize clinical variables with potential privacy protection issues. We developed an IDH prediction model using minimal variables, without the risk of privacy infringement. Methods Unidentifiable data from 63,640 hemodialysis sessions (26,746 of 79 patients for internal validation, 36,894 of 255 patients for external validation) from two Korean hospital hemodialysis databases were finally analyzed, using three IDH definitions: (1) systolic blood pressure (SBP) nadir <90 mmHg (Nadir90); (2) SBP decrease ≥20 mmHg from baseline (Fall20); and (3) SBP decrease ≥20 mmHg and/or mean arterial pressure decrease ≥10 mmHg (Fall20/MAP10). The developed models use 30 min information to predict an IDH event in the following 10 min window. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) and precision-recall curves were used to compare machine learning and deep learning models by logistic regression, XGBoost, and convolutional neural networks. Results Among 344,714 segments, 9,154 (2.7%), 134,988 (39.2%), and 149,674 (43.4%) IDH events occurred according to three different IDH definitions (Nadir90, Fall20, and Fall20/MAP10, respectively). Compared with models including logistic regression, random forest, and XGBoost, the deep learning model achieved the best performance in predicting IDH (AUROCs: Nadir90, 0.905; Fall20, 0.864; Fall20/MAP10, 0.863) only using measurements from hemodialysis machine during dialysis session. Conclusions The deep learning model performed well only using monitoring measurement of hemodialysis machine in predicting IDH without any personal information that could risk privacy infringement.

Abstract
The Korean Society of Nephrology (KSN) has published a clinical practice guideline (CPG) document for maintenance hemodialysis (HD). The document, 2021 Clinical Practice Guideline on Optimal HD Treatment, is based on an extensive evidence-oriented review of the benefits of preparation, initiation, and maintenance therapy for HD, with the participation of representative experts from the KSN under the methodologists' support for guideline development. It was intended to help clinicians participating in HD treatment make safer and more effective clinical decisions by providing user-friendly guidelines. We hope that this CPG will be meaningful as a recommendation in practice, but not on a regulatory rule basis, as different approaches and treatments may be used by health care providers depending on the individual patient's condition. This CPG consists of eight sections and 15 key questions. Each begins with statements that are graded by the strength of recommendations and quality of the evidence. Each statement is followed by a summary of the evidence supporting the recommendations. There are also a link to full-text documents and lists of the most important reports so that the readers can read further (most of this is available online).

Abstract
Chronic wounds and amputations are common in chronic kidney disease patients needing hemodialysis (HD). HD is often complicated by drops in blood pressure (BP) called intra-dialytic hypotension. Whether intra-dialytic hypotension is associated with detectable changes in foot perfusion, a risk factor for wound formation and impaired healing remains unknown. Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is ideally suited to study perfusion changes. We scanned the feet of 20 HD and 11 healthy subjects. HD patients were scanned before and after a dialysis session whereas healthy subjects were scanned twice at rest and once after a 10 min exercise period while BP was elevated. Healthy (r = 0.70, p < 0.0001) and HD subjects (r = 0.43, p < 0.01) showed a significant correlation between PA intensity and systolic BP. Furthermore, HD cohort showed a significantly reduced PA response to changes in BP compared to the healthy controls (p < 0.0001), showing that PA can monitor hemodynamic changes due to changes in BP.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication of hemodialysis (HD) and is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality. CV events are more common on the days of HD, especially following the longer interdialytic interval. We investigated the risk of IDH according to day of HD in adults undergoing in-center, thrice-weekly HD in the Hemodialysis (HEMO) Study (N = 1,837 patients; n = 64,474 sessions), and the DaVita Clinical Research biorepository [BioReG]) (N = 952 patients; n = 61,197 sessions). Random effects logistic regression models assessed the risk of IDH (defined as nadir intra-HD systolic blood pressure [SBP] <90 mm Hg if pre-HD SBP <160 mm Hg, or <100 mm Hg if pre-HD SBP ≥160 mm Hg [Nadir90/100 definition]) according to HD day (Mon/Tue [HD1]; Wed/Thu [HD2]; Fri/Sat [HD3]). Alternative definitions of IDH were explored. Nadir90/100 occurred in 14% of HEMO and 18% of BioReG sessions. A monotonic increase in the risk of IDH was observed for HD2 and HD3, compared with HD1, for all IDH definitions in both cohorts. Compared with HD1, HD2 was associated with a 10% higher risk of Nadir90/100 (adjusted odds ratio, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.03-1.17) and HD3 was associated with a 31% higher risk (adjusted odds ratio, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.19-1.45) in HEMO, with consistent results in BioReG. We observed a monotonic increased risk of IDH with later days of the dialytic week in two separate cohorts. Further research to determine the underlying mechanisms is necessary to guide strategies for IDH prevention.

Abstract
Background Patients undergoing hemodialysis are susceptible to sarcopenia. As intracellular reservoirs of water, skeletal muscles are important contributors to intradialytic hypotension. This study was designed to determine the role of skeletal muscle mass in intradialytic hypotension. Methods In a cross-sectional study, the body composition of 177 patients was measured immediately after hemodialysis using bioelectrical impedance analysis. The parameters measured were skeletal muscle mass, intracellular and extracellular water contents, total body water, and cell-membrane functionality (in phase angle at 50 kHz). Data from laboratory tests, chest radiography, measurements of handgrip strength and mid-arm circumference, and questionnaires were collected. The main outcome was intradialytic hypotension, defined as more than two episodes of hypotension (systolic blood pressure of <90 mmHg) with intervention over the 3 months following enrollment. Logistic regression models including each parameter related to sarcopenia were compared with a clinical model. Results Patients with a low ratio of skeletal muscle mass to dry body weight (SMM/WT) had a higher rate of intradialytic hypotension (41%). Most low-SMM/WT patients were female, obese, diabetic, and had a lower handgrip strength compared with the other patients. In the high-SMM/WT group, the risk of intradialytic hypotension was lower, with an odds ratio of 0.08 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02-0.28) and adjusted odds ratio of 0.06 (95% CI, 0.01-0.29). Conclusion Measurement and maintenance of skeletal muscle can help prevent intradialytic hypotension in frail patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradialytic hypotension is related to patient-reported outcomes such as post-dialysis fatigue, but its impact on physical activity has not been fully studied. We aimed to examine the relationship between intradialytic blood pressure (BP) and objectively measured physical activity. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 192 hemodialysis patients underwent 4 weeks of physical activity measurement using triaxial accelerometers to measure step counts and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Intradialytic BP parameters (pre-dialysis BP, post-dialysis BP, nadir BP, and fall in BP) were measured during all dialysis sessions. Mixed-effects linear regression models were used to analyze associations between intradialytic BP parameters and physical activity (1) after dialysis sessions on dialysis days and (2) on the following non-dialysis days. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 71 years, and 47% had diabetes mellitus. Valid physical activity data were obtained in a total of 1938 dialysis days and 2629 non dialysis days. Lower nadir diastolic BP was significantly associated with lower step counts and shorter moderate-to-vigorous physical activity not only on dialysis days but also on the following non-dialysis days. Nadir diastolic BP showed a higher discrimination capacity for physical inactivity, defined as a step count < 4000 on non-dialysis days, than the other BP parameters. The optimal cutoff point of nadir diastolic BP for discriminating physical inactivity was 68 mmHg; its sensitivity and specificity were 66% and 67%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Lower nadir diastolic BP was strongly associated with lower physical activity on both dialysis and non-dialysis days. Nadir diastolic BP may be a predictor for physical inactivity.

Abstract
Background The difference in outcomes of cancer surgery between patients with and without kidney failure with dialysis therapy (KFDT) remains uncertain. Methods Using 2010–18 data in a national inpatient database in Japan, we identified patients who had undergone resection of colorectal, lung, gastric or breast cancer. We matched selected patient characteristics, type of cancer, surgical procedure and hospital of up to four patients without KFDT to each patient with KFDT. We assessed 30-day mortality and postoperative complications. Results Through matching, we identified 2248 patients with KFDT (807 with colorectal, 579 with lung, 500 with gastric and 362 with breast cancer) and 8210 patients without KFDT (2851 with colorectal, 2216 with lung, 1756 with gastric and 1387 with breast cancer). Postoperative complications occurred in a higher proportion of patients with KFDT than of those without KFDT after colorectal {20.3% versus 14.6%; risk difference (RD): 5.7% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 2.6%–8.8%]}, lung [18.0% versus 12.9%; RD: 5.1% (95% CI 1.6%–8.4%)], gastric [25.0% versus 13.2%; RD: 11.8% (95% CI 7.6%–16.2%)] and breast cancer surgery [7.5% versus 3.5%; RD: 3.9% (95% CI 1.1%–6.9%)]. Patients with KFDT had a higher 30-day mortality than those without KFDT after gastric cancer surgery [1.6% versus 0.3%; RD: 1.3% (95% CI 0.1%–2.3%)]. Heart failure and ischemic heart disease occurred more frequently in patients with KFDT. Conclusions Patients with KFDT had higher rates of postoperative complications and 30-day mortality; however, RDs varied between cancer types. The higher rates of postoperative complications in patients with KFDT were mainly attributable to cardiovascular complications.

Pediatr Nephrol 2022; 37:1105-1115.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intra-dialytic hypotension (IDH) is the most common serious adverse event in paediatric haemodialysis (HD). Repeated IDH results in chronic multi-organ damage and increased mortality. At the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, retrospective data from all in-centre HD sessions revealed frequently occurring IDH events (16.5 ± 5.6% of HD sessions per week). Based on literature review and clinical expertise, fluid volume management was selected as a potential modifiable risk factor to decrease IDH. Root causes identified as contributing to IDH were incorporated into a Paediatric haemodialysis fluid volume management (PedHDfluid) program using the Model for Improvement methodology including rapid cycles of change. METHODS Multiple measures were evaluated including (i) Outcome: IDH events per number of HD sessions per week; (ii) Process: number of changes to estimated dry weight per number of HD sessions per week; (iii) Balancing: time spent on dry weight meeting per week. Data was analysed using statistical process control charts. We aimed to decrease IDH in our dialysis unit to < 10% of HD sessions per week over a 6-month period by implementing a PedHDfluid program, including a multifaceted dry weight assessment protocol, multidisciplinary meetings and electronic health records "Dry Weight Evaluation flow sheet/synopsis". RESULTS The project resulted in a decline in IDH events from 16.5 ± 5.6% to 8.8 ± 3.3% of HD sessions per week. More frequent dry weight changes and increased awareness of fluid removal goals were noted. CONCLUSIONS A multidisciplinary approach including regular assessment, guidelines and systematic discussion, with an embedded electronic health record assessment and data gathering tool may sustainably reduce IDH events. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

[PMID: 34950471 PMCID: PMC8690150 DOI: 10.1093/ckj/sfab124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) has been reported to be an important prognostic factor in hemodialysis patients. However, a standard definition of IDH has not yet been determined. Methods We retrospectively analyzed blood pressure (BP) metrics obtained during serial dialysis sessions over a 90-day period from a single dialysis center from 2016 to 2017. The mean values and the frequency of specific values of BP were analyzed as predictors of 3-year mortality. Results A total of 430 patients who underwent maintenance dialysis were included. The mean age was 63.3 ± 12.4 years and 58.6% were male. A low minimum systolic blood pressure (SBP) <110 mmHg during dialysis was significantly associated with increased all-cause mortality. The frequency of a minimum SBP <100 mmHg was the most significant predictor of 3-year mortality, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.722. Furthermore, the frequency of a minimum SBP <100 mmHg significantly increased the predictability of mortality when combined with the presence of other clinical factors including age, body mass index and vascular access type (AUC 0.786 vs. 0.835; p = 0.005). Conclusion Among the various intradialytic BP metrics, the frequency of a minimum SBP <100 mmHg is the most significant factor related to all-cause mortality. The guidelines for the management of blood pressure in dialysis patients should consider including a minimum SBP <100 mmHg as a definition for IDH.

Executive Summary of the Korean Society of Nephrology 2021 Clinical Practice Guideline for Optimal Hemodialysis Treatment. Kidney Res Clin Pract 2021; 40:578-595. [PMID: 34922430 PMCID: PMC8685366 DOI: 10.23876/j.krcp.21.700] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The Korean Society of Nephrology (KSN) has published a clinical practice guideline (CPG) document for maintenance hemodialysis (HD). The document, 2021 Clinical Practice Guideline on Optimal HD Treatment, is based on an extensive evidence-oriented review of the benefits of preparation, initiation, and maintenance therapy for HD, with the participation of representative experts from the KSN under the methodologists’ support for guideline development. It was intended to help clinicians participating in HD treatment make safer and more effective clinical decisions by providing user-friendly guidelines. We hope that this CPG will be meaningful as a recommendation in practice, but not on a regulatory rule basis, as different approaches and treatments may be used by health care providers depending on the individual patient’s condition. This CPG consists of eight sections and 15 key questions. Each begins with statements that are graded by the strength of recommendations and quality of the evidence. Each statement is followed by a summary of the evidence supporting the recommendations. There is also a link to full-text documents and lists of the most important reports so that the readers can read further (most of this is available online).
