Key result
Hemodialysis was associated with a 40% incidence of cardiac arrhythmias, which was significantly higher than the incidence observed on nondialysis days.

Supports arrhythmia vigilance on hemodialysis days in ESRD; leaves open causality and need for prospective trials.

Does hemodialysis increase the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in chronic renal failure patients?
Hemodialysis is associated with a 40% incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in chronic renal failure patients, which is significantly higher than on nondialysis days.
Ramírez et al. (2008) conducted an observational in Chronic renal failure on hemodialysis. Hemodialysis vs. Nondialysis days was evaluated on Cardiac arrhythmias. Hemodialysis was associated with a 40% incidence of cardiac arrhythmias, which was significantly higher than the incidence observed on nondialysis days.
