Key result
Reduced heart rate variability may serve as a clinical predictor for sudden cardiac death in dialysis patients, supporting more aggressive treatment of coronary artery disease and use of ACE-i/ARBs.

Reduced heart rate variability may serve as a clinical predictor for sudden cardiac death in the dialysis population, highlighting the need for optimized cardioprotective therapies.
Is reduced heart rate variability associated with sudden cardiac death in dialysis patients?
Reduced heart rate variability may serve as a clinical predictor for sudden cardiac death in the dialysis population, highlighting the need for optimized cardioprotective therapies.
Ranpuria et al. (2007) conducted a review in End-stage renal disease (ESRD). Heart rate variability (HRV) was evaluated on Sudden cardiac death (SCD). Reduced heart rate variability may serve as a clinical predictor for sudden cardiac death in dialysis patients, supporting more aggressive treatment of coronary artery disease and use of ACE-i/ARBs.
