Summary

Introduction

Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common clinical complication, and research statistics show that up to one-third of hemodialysis (HD) patients have experienced hypotension during. Dialysis treatment.[1] In some patients, the development of hypotension necessitates intravenous fluid replacement before they are able to safely leave the dialysis unit. IDH may reduce the efficacy of dialysis and contribute to the excessive morbidity and mortality associated with HD. There is roughly a 15–30% probability that hypotension occurs during HD, and repeated hypotension causes blood stagnation and leads to excessive heart workload of patients. We can predict the morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular disease from this parameter of hypotension. Many previous studies focused on the reasons for hypotension in HD, which included a study of the parameters that can help predict hypotension. The research results show that there is a correlation between BP variability (BPV) and abnormal HR variability (HRV).(1–4)
