Cardiac surgery for chronic renal dialysis patients.
Twenty-two open-heart operations have been performed on 21 patients receiving chronic renal dialysis. These cases include 16 aortocoronary bypasses and six valve replacements. The average time on dialysis prior to surgery was 26 months; 18 of 21 patients were in NYHA grade 3 or 4.

Cardiac disease is the major cause of death in dialysis patients and accounts for 43% of all-cause mortality. In the United States Renal Data System database 62% of cardiac deaths (or 27% of all deaths) are attributable to arrhythmic mechanisms. The es...
متن کاملExpect the unexpected: sudden cardiac death in dialysis patients.
Over the past decade, a number of clinical trials addressing dialysis dose and frequency and cardiovascular risk have revealed that sudden unexpected deaths are a common occurrence among incident and prevalent dialysis patients (1,2). This high rate of out of hospital deaths has been confirmed in natural history studies, with an incidence as high as 25% over 5 years, and the rate has not substa...

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on long-term dialysis therapy have very high mortality due to predominantly cardiovascular causes1 (Figure 1). Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the single most common form of death in dialysis patients, accounting for 20% to 30% of all deaths in this cohort.2,3 These patients indeed have a very high burden of coronary artery disease (CAD), and a proport...
