Characterization of Cardiovascular Health for Chronic Dialysis Patients Using Continuous Non-Invasive Cardiac Output Monitoring

چکیده
There were 485,000 end stage renal disease patients in the U.S. as of 2005 with 785,000 projected by 2020. Mortality while on chronic hemodialysis is very high reaching 65% at 5 years after starting hemodialysis [1]. The prevalence of cardiovascular disease and left ventricular hypertrophy in these patients is 40% and 75%, respectively [2]. Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in dialysis patients accounting for over half of patient deaths. Most of this excess mortality is due to heart disease and consequently heart failure with its associated fluid retention. Thus, both fluid overload and heart failure commonly co-exist in patients on chronic hemodialysis [3]. Moreover, intradialytic hypotension (IDH) resulting from the excessive removal of fluid in patients at risk, primarily those with underlying cardiac disease (left ventricular hypertrophy or dysfunction, coronary artery disease), is an underappreciated problem which may contribute to the increased mortality of endstage renal disease (ESRD) patients through cardiac ischemia/ acute coronary syndrome, cardiac arrhythmias, vascular autoregulatory dysfunction, and endothelial abnormalities with increased thrombogenecity. Patients with frequent IDH have Abstract

A System for Continuous Estimating and Monitoring Cardiac Output via Arterial Waveform Analysis
Background: Cardiac output (CO) is the total volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute and is a function of heart rate and stroke volume. CO is one of the most important parameters for monitoring cardiac function, estimating global oxygen delivery and understanding the causes of high blood pressure. Hence, measuring CO has always been a matter of interest to researchers and clinicians. Sev...

متن کاملHemodynamic effects of chronic hemodialysis therapy assessed by pulse waveform analysis.
Cardiovascular responses to hemodialysis have been characterized by invasive monitoring techniques. These techniques are not feasible for evaluation of hemodynamic status during dialysis in the outpatient setting. In this study, we used pulse waveform analysis (PWA), a noninvasive tool designed for the ambulatory setting, to assess hemodynamic responses of dialysis treatments in 27 stable subje...

Introduction: The present study aimed to correlate renal oximetry near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) values with conventional non-invasive biomarkers for the early detection of acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Accordingly, renal NIRS can be employed as a trending device for the prevention of AKI developmen...
متن کاملLong-term recording of cardiac output via an implantable haemodynamic monitoring device.
Long-term monitoring of central haemodynamics with implanted monitoring systems might be valuable in managing heart failure patients. Such systems offer an opportunity for repeated 'semi-invasive' cardiac output determinations according to the Fick principle. Five patients, four with chronic heart failure and one with chronic pulmonary disease, underwent supine exercise testing during cardiac c...
