Key result
Identification of risk factors and continuous monitoring of parameters in high-risk dialyzed patients can predict and help prevent the onset of symptomatic acute hypotension.
Highlights the importance of risk stratification and continuous monitoring to prevent acute hypotension during hemodialysis.
Acute hypotension is a frequent hemodialysis complication. This intra-treatment vascular instability is a multifactorial process in which procedure-related and patient-related factors may influence the decrease in plasma volume and the impairment of cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms. Identification of the most susceptible patients and of the various risk factors may contribute to significantly improving cardiovascular stability during dialysis. In some high-risk patients, continuous monitoring of the various parameters can predict the appearance of symptomatic hypotension and help to prevent its onset.

Zucchelli et al. (1999) conducted a review in Acute hypotension in dialyzed patients. Continuous monitoring and risk factor identification was evaluated. Identification of risk factors and continuous monitoring of parameters in high-risk dialyzed patients can predict and help prevent the onset of symptomatic acute hypotension.
