  3. ★ Intradialytic hypotension • Definition: A decrease in systolic BP ≥20 mm Hg or a decrease in MAP ≥ 10 mm Hg associated with symptoms. • Complication: cardiac arrhythmias, coronary and/or cerebral ischemic events • Long-term side effects: volume overload due to suboptimal ultrafiltration, LVH, and interdialytic hypertension K-DOQI guildline

  4. Risk Factors of Dialysis Hypotension • A third of dialysis patients • Low body mass • Poor nutritional status and hypoalbuminemia • Severe anemia • Advanced age (Age > 65 years old) • Cardiovascular disease • Large interdialysis weight gain • Low blood pressure (predialysis systolic BP <100 mm Hg)

  5. Etiology of Dialysis Hypotension (I) • Excessive rate and degree of ultrafiltration • Inappropriate peripheral venodilation • Autonomic dysfunction • Inadequate vasoconstrictor secretion

  6. Etiology of Dialysis Hypotensoin (II) • Acetate dialysate • Low calcium dialysate • Eat shortly before dialysis • Antihypertensive medications • LV dysfunction
