Is dialysis hypotension caused by an abnormality of venous tone?
The role of peripheral vascular tone in the development of hypotension induced by dialysis was investigated in eight patients undergoing haemodialysis with acetate or bicarbonate buffered fluid. Each patient had two sessions of dialysis with acetate fluid and two with bicarbonate fluid in the order acetate, bicarbonate, bicarbonate, acetate or bicarbonate, acetate, acetate, bicarbonate.

متن کاملHypotension caused by L-dopa.

This hypotension may be due to dopamine, acting on adrenergic nerve endings or on the central nervous system itself.
متن کاملAcute aluminum encephalopathy in a dialysis center caused by a cement mortar water distribution pipe.
BACKGROUND In Curaçao, distilled seawater from the water plant was used without further purification for hemodialysis for several decades. A new distribution pipe supplying water to a dialysis center on the island was installed in May 1996. To protect it from corrosion, this pipe was lined on the inside with a cement mortar. Because of the aggressiveness of the distilled water, calcium and alum...
متن کاملEpidemic pleurodynia caused by coxsackievirus B3 at a medical center in northern Taiwan.

Epidemic pleurodynia was defined as an acute illness characterized by sharp localized pain over the chest or upper abdomen. Patients with known h...
متن کاملDetermination of sodium azide in beverages by ion chromatography.
A convenient method for determination of sodium azide in beverages using ion chromatography is described. This method combines the specificity for azide with a simple sample preparation using a bubble and trap apparatus that removes any interferences. Sodium azide in a sample was acidified, and the azide was converted to the volatile hydrazoic acid, which was trapped in 2.5 mM sodium hydroxide ...
