          Abstract

          Abstract Background: Chronic fluid overload is frequent in hemodialysis patients (P) and it associates with hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and higher mortality. Moreover, echocardiographic data assessing fluid overload is limited. Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between fluid overload measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) and different echocardiographic parameters. Methods: Cross-sectional observational study including 76 stable patients. Dry weight was clinically assessed. BIS and echocardiography were performed. Weekly time-averaged fluid overload (TAFO) and relative fluid overload (FO/ECW) were calculated using BIS measurements. Results: Based on TAFO three groups were defined: A- dehydrated, TAFO < -0.25 L 32 P (42%); B- normohydrated, TAFO between -0.25 and 1.5 l: 26 (34%); C- overhydrated, TAFO>1.5 l: 18 (24%). We found significant correlation between TAFO and left atrial volume index (LAVI) (r: 0.29; p = 0.013) but not with FO/ECW (r: 0.06; p = 0.61). TAFO, but not FO/ECW kept a significant relationship with LAVI (p = 0.03) using One-Way ANOVA test and linear regression methods. LVH was present in 73.7% (concentric 63.2%, eccentric in 10.5%). No differences between groups in the presence of LVH or left ventricular mass index were found. Conclusions: We found that left atrial volume index determined by echocardiographic Area-length method, but not left ventricle hypertrophy or dimensions of cavities, are related on hydration status based on bioimpedance measured time-averaged fluid overload (TAFO), and not with FO/ECW.

          Resumen Introducción: La sobrehidratación es frecuente en pacientes en hemodiálisis (P) y se asocia con hipertensión, hipertrofia ventricular izquierda (LVH) y mayor mortalidad. Los datos ecocardiográficos evaluando sobrecarga hídrica son escasos. Nuestro objetivo fue evaluar la relación entre sobrehidratación medida por Bioimpedancia multifrecuencia (BIS) y parámetros ecocardiográficos. Métodos: Estudio transversal observacional, con 76 P estables; El peso seco fue determinado clínicamente; se realizaron ecocardiograma, BIS y analítica sanguínea. Se calcularon la sobrehidratación promedio semanal (TAFO) y sobrehidratación relativa (FO/ECW). Resultados: 3 grupos: A- deshidratados, TAFO < -0.25 L: 32 P (42,1%); B- normohidratado, TAFO -0.25 - 1.5 L: 26 P (34,2%); C- sobrehidratados TAFO > 1.5 L: 18 P (23,7%). Encontramos correlación significativa entre TAFO e índice de volumen auricular izquierdo (LVAI) (r: 0.29; p = 0.013) y no con FO/ECW (rho 0,06; p = 0,61). TAFO, pero no FO/ ECW, mantuvo una relación significativa con LVAI (p = 0,03) utilizando test de ANOVA y regresión lineal. LVH estuvo presente en 73,7% de P (concéntrica 63,2%, excéntrica 10,5%). No encontramos diferencias entre grupos en cuanto a la presencia de LVH, ni del índice de masa ventricular izquierda. Conclusiones: Nosotros observamos que el índice de volumen auricular izquierdo determinado por longitud de área medida por ecocardiograma y no la hipertrofia ventricular izquierda o dimensión de cavidades se relaciona con el estado de hidratación medido por sobrehidatación semanal y no con FO/ECW.

          Chronic kidney disease and mortality risk: a systematic review.

          Current guidelines identify people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as being at high risk for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Because as many as 19 million Americans may have CKD, a comprehensive summary of this risk would be potentially useful for planning public health policy. A systematic review of the association between non-dialysis-dependent CKD and the risk for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality was conducted. Patient- and study-related characteristics that influenced the magnitude of these associations also were investigated. MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched, and reference lists through December 2004 were consulted. Authors of 10 primary studies provided additional data. Cohort studies or cohort analyses of randomized, controlled trials that compared mortality between those with and without chronically reduced kidney function were included. Studies were excluded from review when participants were followed for < 1 yr or had ESRD. Two reviewers independently extracted data on study setting, quality, participant and renal function characteristics, and outcomes. Thirty-nine studies that followed a total of 1,371,990 participants were reviewed. The unadjusted relative risk for mortality in participants with reduced kidney function compared with those without ranged from 0.94 to 5.0 and was significantly more than 1.0 in 93% of cohorts. Among the 16 studies that provided suitable data, the absolute risk for death increased exponentially with decreasing renal function. Fourteen cohorts described the risk for mortality from reduced kidney function, after adjustment for other established risk factors. Although adjusted relative hazards were consistently lower than unadjusted relative risks (median reduction 17%), they remained significantly more than 1.0 in 71% of cohorts. This review supports current guidelines that identify individuals with CKD as being at high risk for cardiovascular mortality. Determining which interventions best offset this risk remains a health priority.

            Effect of fluid management guided by bioimpedance spectroscopy on cardiovascular parameters in hemodialysis patients: a randomized controlled trial.

            Fluid overload is the main determinant of hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy in hemodialysis patients. However, assessment of fluid overload can be difficult in clinical practice. We investigated whether objective measurement of fluid overload with bioimpedance spectroscopy is helpful in optimizing fluid status. Prospective, randomized, and controlled study. 156 hemodialysis patients from 2 centers were randomly assigned to 2 groups. Dry weight was assessed by routine clinical practice and fluid overload was assessed by bioimpedance spectroscopy in both groups. In the intervention group (n = 78), fluid overload information was provided to treating physicians and used to adjust fluid removal during dialysis. In the control group (n = 78), fluid overload information was not provided to treating physicians and fluid removal during dialysis was adjusted according to usual clinical practice. The primary outcome was regression of left ventricular mass index during a 1-year follow-up. Improvement in blood pressure and left atrial volume were the main secondary outcomes. Changes in arterial stiffness parameters were additional outcomes. Fluid overload was assessed twice monthly in the intervention group and every 3 months in the control group before the mid- or end-week hemodialysis session. Echocardiography, 48-hour ambulatory blood pressure measurement, and pulse wave analysis were performed at baseline and 12 months. Baseline fluid overload parameters in the intervention and control groups were 1.45 ± 1.11 (SD) and 1.44 ± 1.12 L, respectively (P = 0.7). Time-averaged fluid overload values significantly decreased in the intervention group (mean difference, -0.5 ± 0.8 L), but not in the control group (mean difference, 0.1 ± 1.2 L), and the mean difference between groups was -0.5 L (95% CI, -0.8 to -0.2; P = 0.001). Left ventricular mass index regressed from 131 ± 36 to 116 ± 29 g/m(2) (P < 0.001) in the intervention group, but not in the control group (121 ± 35 to 120 ± 30 g/m(2); P = 0.9); mean difference between groups was -10.2 g/m(2) (95% CI, -19.2 to -1.17 g/m(2); P = 0.04). In addition, values for left atrial volume index, blood pressure, and arterial stiffness parameters decreased in the intervention group, but not in the control group. Ambulatory blood pressure data were not available for all patients. Assessment of fluid overload with bioimpedance spectroscopy provides better management of fluid status, leading to regression of left ventricular mass index, decrease in blood pressure, and improvement in arterial stiffness.

              Alterations of left ventricular hypertrophy in and survival of patients receiving hemodialysis: follow-up of an interventional study.

              Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH) is a risk factor for mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Whether the attenuation of LVH has a positive effect on survival of patients with ESRD has not been documented. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of parallel treatment of hypertension and anemia on LV mass (LVM) and to determine the effect of LVM changes on survival. A cohort of 153 patients receiving hemodialysis was studied. The duration of follow-up was 54 +/- 37 mo. All patients had echocardiographic determination of LV dimensions and LVM at baseline and regular intervals until the end of the follow-up period. During the study, BP decreased from (mean +/- SD) 169.4 +/- 29.7/90.2 +/- 15.6 to 146.7 +/- 29/78 +/- 14.1 mmHg (P < 0.001), and hemoglobin increased from 8.65 +/- 1.65 to 10.5 +/- 1.45 g/dl (P < 0.001). The LV end-diastolic diameter and mean wall thickness decreased from 56.6 +/- 6.5 to 54.8 +/- 6.5 mm (P < 0.001), and from 10.4 +/- 1.6 to 10.2 +/- 1.6 mm (P < 0.05), respectively. The LVM decreased from 290 +/- 80 to 264 +/- 86 g (P < 0.01). Fifty-eight deaths occurred, 38 attributed to cardiovascular (CV) disease and 20 attributed to non-CV causes. According to Cox analyses after adjustment for age, gender, diabetes, history of CV disease, and all nonspecific CV risk factors, LVM regression positively affected the survival. The hazard risk ratio associated with a 10% LVM decrease was 0.78 (95% confidence interval, 0.63 to 0.92) for all-causes mortality and 0.72 (95% confidence interval, 0.51 to 0.90) for mortality due to CV disease. These results show that a partial LVH regression in patients with ESRD had a favorable and independent effect on patients' all-cause and CV survival.
