Vascular reactivity during combined ultrafiltration-hemodialysis: influence of dialysate-derived contaminants.
نویسندگان
چکیده
It has been suggested that hemodynamic instability and impaired vascular reactivity during combined ultrafiltration-hemodialysis are related to bioincompatibility factors such as dialysate-derived contaminants or the dialyzer. The study presented here investigated whether vascular reactivity could be improved by the use of sterile dialysate. Forearm vascular resistance and venous tone (measured by strain-gauge plethysmography) as well as arterial blood pressure (by Dinamap) and heart rate (by electrocardiogram) were measured in ten stable dialysis patients (age range, 28 to 71 yr) during 2 h of combined ultrafiltration-hemodialysis (bicarbonate; ultrafiltration rate 1.0 L/h). In addition, a dialysate sample was obtained for culture and limulus amebocyte lysate testing while blood was withdrawn for the estimation of plasma bactericidal/permeability increasing factor (measured by ELISA) and the soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor p75 (measured by ELISA). Patients served as their own control, comparing dialysis with nonsterile and sterile dialysate. No bacterial growth was observed in sterile dialysate, whereas all samples were positive for Pseudomonas in culture in nonsterile dialysis. All limulus amebocyte lysate tests were negative. Bactericidal/permeability increasing factor tended to increase during nonsterile dialysis (P = 0.063) and remained unchanged during sterile dialysis. In both treatments, tumor necrosis factor receptor p75 increased significantly (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in hemodynamic parameters between the treatment modalities. Despite use of sterile dialysate, forearm vascular resistance remained unchanged whereas venous tone decreased significantly. These results indicate that vascular reactivity during combined ultrafiltration-hemodialysis is not improved by the use of sterile dialysate.

Effect of controlled extracorporeal blood cooling on ultrafiltration-induced blood volume changes during hemodialysis.
Considerable amounts of heat may be lost or gained through the extracorporeal circuit during hemodialysis and influence the hemodynamic stability of the dialysis patient. The effects of two levels of extracorporeal heat flux (Jtherm in W) on blood pressures and ultrafiltration-induced blood volume changes were studied in eight patients on conventional hemodialysis. Treatments were controlled au...
متن کاملEnergy transfer is the single most important factor for the difference in vascular response between isolated ultrafiltration and hemodialysis.
Differences in vascular reactivity between isolated ultrafiltration (i-UF) and hemodialysis (UF + HD) have been attributed to various factors, including differences in core temperature (CT) and energy transfer (ET). However, the relative importance of these thermal factors is not known. The aim of this study was to elucidate to what extent differences in ET are responsible for the divergent vas...
متن کاملPreventing haemodynamic instability in patients at risk for intra-dialytic hypotension.
Although as yet no major breakthroughs have occurred to improve long-term survival of haemodialysis patients with impaired cardiovascular function, it is possible to reduce morbidity by intra-dialytic hypotension in these patients by the use of relatively simple manoeuvres. In our experience, this can be achieved using the following approach (Table 1). First, the decline in plasma volume can be...
متن کاملHemodynamic behavior during hemodialysis: effects of dialysate concentrations of bicarbonate and potassium.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Ultrafiltration that occurs during hemodialysis (HD) promotes profound alterations in a relatively short period of time. The dialysate content of bicarbonate (DBic) and potassium (DK) may have impact over intradialytic hemodynamics, which goes beyond ultrafiltration, and its impact was evaluated in a prospective cohort. METHODS 30 patients under HD were submitted to hemodynami...
