          Abstract

          Intradialytic hypertension (IDH) is defined by blood pressure (BP) values during and at the end of the dialysis session exceeding BP values at dialysis onset. It occurs in around 10% of hemodialysis (HD) patients. It is associated with HD patients’ hospitalization and increased risk of death. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain this phenomenon. Recent studies and reports highlight the important role of fluid overload, hemodynamic changes, and increased endothelin level. The importance of other hypotheses such as the renin-angiotensin system activation, sympathetic overactivity and ionic variations seems secondary but it deserves to be confirmed. Fluid removal remains the key point for treating IDH. Several important unanswered questions remain and the need for further research is highlighted.

          Plasma sodium stiffens vascular endothelium and reduces nitric oxide release.

          Dietary salt plays a major role in the regulation of blood pressure, and the mineralocorticoid hormone aldosterone controls salt homeostasis and extracellular volume. Recent observations suggest that a small increase in plasma sodium concentration may contribute to the pressor response of dietary salt. Because endothelial cells are (i) sensitive to aldosterone, (ii) in physical contact with plasma sodium, and (iii) crucial regulators of vascular tone, we tested whether acute changes in plasma sodium concentration, within the physiological range, can alter the physical properties of endothelial cells. The tip of an atomic force microscope was used as a nanosensor to measure stiffness of living endothelial cells incubated for 3 days in a culture medium containing aldosterone at a physiological concentration (0.45 nM). Endothelial cell stiffness was unaffected by acute changes in sodium concentration <135 mM but rose steeply between 135 and 145 mM. The increase in stiffness occurred within minutes. Lack of aldosterone in the culture medium or treatment with the epithelial sodium channel inhibitor amiloride prevented this response. Nitric oxide formation was found down-regulated in cells cultured in aldosterone-containing high sodium medium. The results suggest that changes in plasma sodium concentration per se may affect endothelial function and thus control vascular tone.

            Association of intradialytic blood pressure changes with hospitalization and mortality rates in prevalent ESRD patients.

            The relationship between blood pressure (BP) and clinical outcomes among hemodialysis patients is complex and incompletely understood. This study sought to assess the relationship between blood pressure changes with hemodialysis and clinical outcomes during a 6-month period. This study is a secondary analysis of the Crit-Line Intradialytic Monitoring Benefit Study, a randomized trial of 443 hemodialysis subjects, designed to determine whether blood volume monitoring reduced hospitalization. Logistic regression was used to estimate the association between BP changes with hemodialysis (Deltasystolic blood pressure=postdialysis-predialysis systoic BP (SBP) and the primary outcome of non-access-related hospitalization and death. Subjects whose systolic blood pressure fell with dialysis were younger, took fewer blood pressure medications, had higher serum creatinine, and higher dry weights. After controlling for baseline characteristics, lab variables, and treatment group, subjects whose SBP remained unchanged with hemodialysis (N=150, DeltaSBP -10 to 10 mm Hg) or whose SBP rose with hemodialysis (N=58, DeltaSBP > or =10 mm Hg) had a higher odds of hospitalization or death compared to subjects whose SBP fell with hemodialysis (N=230, DeltaSBP < or =-10 mm Hg) (odds ratio: 1.85, confidence interval: 1.15-2.98; and odds ratio: 2.17, confidence interval: 1.13-4.15). Subjects whose systolic blood pressure fell with hemodialysis had a significantly decreased risk of hospitalization or death at 6 months, suggesting that hemodynamic responses to dialysis are associated with short-term outcomes among a group of prevalent hemodialysis subjects. Further research should attempt to elucidate the mechanisms behind these findings.

              Association of blood pressure increases during hemodialysis with 2-year mortality in incident hemodialysis patients: a secondary analysis of the Dialysis Morbidity and Mortality Wave 2 Study.

              Intradialytic increases in blood pressure (BP) can complicate the management of hypertension in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, the long-term consequences are uncertain. Thus, we sought to determine whether BP increases during HD were associated with greater 2-year mortality in incident HD patients. Secondary analysis of a prospective dialysis cohort. Incident HD patients in the Dialysis Morbidity and Mortality Wave 2 Study. Changes in systolic BP (SBP) during HD (ie, postdialysis SBP -- predialysis SBP), averaged from 3 HD sessions before enrollment. Time to 2-year all-cause mortality. Cox regression was used to model hazard ratios for mortality associated with changes in SBP during HD while adjusting for demographics, comorbid conditions, interdialytic weight gain, laboratory variables, and antihypertensive agents. Of 1,748 patients, 12.2% showed greater than 10-mm Hg increases in SBP during HD. In adjusted analyses, every 10-mm Hg increase in SBP during HD was associated independently with a 6% increased hazard of death (hazard ratio, 1.06; 95% confidence interval, 1.01 to 1.11). When also adjusted for diastolic BP and postdialysis SBP, the adjusted hazard of death associated with increasing SBP during HD remained significant (hazard ratio, 1.12; 95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 1.21 per 10-mm Hg increase in SBP during HD). However, in analyses adjusted for predialysis SBP, there was a significant interaction between change in SBP and predialysis SBP. In analyses stratified by predialysis SBP, trends for increased mortality associated with increasing SBP during dialysis were present in patients with predialysis SBP less than 160 mm Hg. However, this relationship was significant only in patients with predialysis SBP less than 120 mm Hg. Secondary analysis with a limited number of baseline BP measurements and limited information about dialysis prescription. Increasing SBP by more than 10 mm Hg during HD occurs in approximately 10% of incident patients, and although increasing SBP during HD was associated with decreased 2-year survival, these findings were limited to patients with predialysis SBP less than 120 mm Hg.
