June 1, 2014Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis

LVMI was significantly higher in diastolic non-dippers compared to dippers (140.4 ± 35.3 vs 114.5 ± 29.7, P = 0.02), with no significant differences in BP loads or LVMI between APD and CAPD groups.

Why the study?

Does the type of peritoneal dialysis (APD vs CAPD) or circadian blood pressure rhythm affect left ventricular mass index in end-stage renal disease patients?

Population

48 end-stage renal disease patients on peritoneal dialysis.

Comparison

Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) vs Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)

Design

Cross-sectional

Authors

NANuh Ataş YEYasemin Erten GOGülay Ulusal Okyay

Discussion

Overview

Non-dipping diastolic BP was associated with higher LVMI in PD patients; leaves open whether rhythm modification affects LV mass.

Structured PICO

Does the type of peritoneal dialysis (APD vs CAPD) or circadian blood pressure rhythm affect left ventricular mass index in end-stage renal disease patients?

Population

48 end-stage renal disease patients on peritoneal dialysis (20 on automated peritoneal dialysis [7 men, 13 women] and 28 on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis [16 men, 12 women]).

Intervention

Automated peritoneal dialysis (APD)

Comparator

Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)

Outcome

Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and circadian blood pressure rhythm (dipping patterns)surrogate

Non-dipping diastolic blood pressure pattern is associated with higher left ventricular mass index in peritoneal dialysis patients, regardless of the dialysis modality.
