June 1, 1995Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation

Ambulatory BP results were SBP 119.4 (19.9) mmHg, DBP 70.6 (12.9) mmHg, and MBP 87.6 (13.9) mmHg, which were significantly lower than casual predialysis BP and close to normotensive reference values.

Overview

Supports hypothesis that extended HD improves interdialytic BP control; leaves open effects on cardiovascular outcomes.

Structured PICO

Does long haemodialysis improve interdialysis blood pressure control in haemodialysis patients?

P
Population
91 non-selected haemodialysis patients, mean age 58.7 years, 14% incidence of nephrosclerosis and diabetes mellitus, mean treatment duration 93.0 months, 1.1% receiving antihypertensive medication.
I
Intervention
Long haemodialysis sessions (3x8 hours/week, cuprophane, acetate buffer in 95% of patients)
C
Comparator
Casual predialysis blood pressure measurements and reference values from 3476 normotensive subjects
O
Outcome
Ambulatory blood pressure (systolic, diastolic, and mean) during the interdialysis periodsurrogate

Long haemodialysis sessions (3x8 hours/week) achieve excellent interdialysis blood pressure control comparable to normotensive subjects without the need for antihypertensive medications, though circadian blood pressure rhythms remain abnormal.
