Title: | Challenges in blood pressure measurement in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis. | Austin Authors: | Roberts, Matthew A;Pilmore, Helen L;Tonkin, Andrew M;Garg, Amit X;Pascoe, Elaine M;Badve, Sunil V;Cass, Alan;Ierino, Francesco L;Hawley, Carmel M | Institutional Author: | Beta-Blocker to Lower Cardiovascular Dialysis Events (BLOCADE) Feasibility Study Trial Management Committee | Affiliation: | Department of Nephrology, Austin Health, Melbourne, Australia | Issue Date: | 15-Jun-2012 | Publication information: | American Journal of Kidney Diseases : the Official Journal of the National Kidney Foundation 2012; 60(3): 463-72 | Abstract: | The association between blood pressure and cardiovascular outcomes in patients undergoing hemodialysis remains controversial. This may relate in part to the technique and device used and the timing of the blood pressure measurement in relation to the hemodialysis procedure. Emerging evidence indicates that standardized hemodialysis unit blood pressure measurements or measurements obtained at home, either by the patient or using an ambulatory blood pressure monitor, may offer advantages over routine hemodialysis unit blood pressure measurements for determining cardiovascular risk and treatment. This review discusses the available evidence and implications for clinicians and clinical trials. | Gov't Doc #: | 22704141 | URI: | http://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/11519 | DOI: | 10.1053/j.ajkd.2012.04.026 | Journal: | American journal of kidney diseases : the official journal of the National Kidney Foundation | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22704141 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Blood Pressure Determination.methods Blood Pressure Monitoring, Ambulatory.methods Cardiovascular Diseases.etiology.prevention & control Female Follow-Up Studies Humans Hypertension.etiology.prevention & control Kidney Failure, Chronic.diagnosis.therapy Long-Term Care Male Monitoring, Physiologic.methods Randomized Controlled Trials as Topic Renal Dialysis.adverse effects.methods Reproducibility of Results Risk Assessment |
