Abstract
Results 175 patients (35.42%) were diagnosed with HDH and 275 patients were selected as controls. Headache was started with a mean of 2.90 ± 0.72 hours of the hemodialysis session. The pain was usually throbbing in bi-frontal region , the mean duration of headache was 6.1 ± 7.7h, and VAS score was 5.63 ± 2.02.. The difference between preand postdialysis values of BUN in patients with HDH was statistically significant,. Patients with HDH showed significantly higher mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure pre-dialysis values comparing with control group, whereas post-dialysis values did not differ between the two groups. Conclusion HDH may cause disability to the patient and changing dialysis parameters or methods can prevent the attacks and disability. No conflict of interest.
