| description | <h4>Background</h4>Whether fluid overload is associated with vascular stiffness parameters in hemodialysis (HD) patients has not been fully elucidated. We hypothesized that interdialytic fluid accumulation increases vascular stiffness parameters, which improves with intradialytic ultrafiltration.<h4>Methods</h4>Fluid overload and vascular stiffness parameters were assessed in 39 HD patients (20 with and 19 without fluid overload) and compared to 26 healthy controls. Fluid status was assessed 15 minutes before the mid-week HD session by bio-impedance spectroscopy. Following this, ambulatory pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) were measured for 24 hours before another mid-week HD session and then for 5 hours starting 30 minutes before and ending 30 minutes after the session.<h4>Results</h4>HD patients had significant fluid overload compared to healthy controls (2.0±2.4 vs. -0.2±0.6 L; P<0.001) and baseline PWV was higher (10.3±1.7 vs. 8.8±1.4 m/s; P<0.001). There was no significant difference between PWV and AIx in fluid overloaded and non-fluid overloaded HD patients prior to, or during the HD session. AIx of non-fluid overloaded HD patients improved after the HD session (P = 0.04). Average 24-hour AIx was higher in fluid overloaded HD patients (P<0.001).<h4>Conclusions</h4>Inter- and intradialytic changes in fluid volume were only weakly related to vascular stiffness parameters in HD patients. Although there was a modest reduction in AIx in non-fluid overloaded HD patients after the dialysis session, fluid removal did not improve vascular stiffness parameters during the HD session. We speculate that the effect of fluid overload correction on vascular stiffness parameters requires long-term adjustments in the vasculature. |
