Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) occurs in approximately 10–12% of treatments. Whereas
several definitions for IDH are available, a nadir systolic blood pressure carries the strongest …

Volume overload in haemodialysis (HD) patients associates with hypertension and cardiac
dysfunction and is a major risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in this …

Hemodialysis has saved many lives, albeit with significant residual mortality. Although poor
outcomes may reflect advanced age and comorbid conditions, hemodialysis per se may …

Both overhydration and comorbidity predict mortality in end-stage kidney failure (ESKF) but it
is not clear whether these are independent of one another. We undertook a systematic …

Volume overload is an important, may be the foremost, independent prognostic factor
determining the outcome of hemodialysis patients. Therefore, it is crucial to measure fluid …

Background Fluid overload and interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) are discrete components of
the dynamic fluid balance in haemodialysis patients. We aimed to disentangle their …

Background Volume overload is a common complication in patients with end-stage kidney
disease who undergo maintenance dialysis therapy and associated with hypertension, left …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is generally regarded as a final common pathway of several
renal diseases, often leading to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and a need for renal …

The aim of the paper is to reflect on the current status of bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) in
fluid management in dialysis patients. BIS identifies fluid overload (FO) as a virtual …

Adequate assessment of fluid status is an imperative objective in the management of all
types of patients in cardiology, intensive care, and especially nephrology. Fluid overload is …
