Purpose: In contrast to peridialytic blood pressure (BP), intradialytic and home BP measurements are accurate metrics of ambulatory BP load in hemodialysis patients. This study assessed the agreement of peridialytic, intradialytic, and scheduled interdialytic recordings with 44-h BP in a distinct hemodialysis population, patients with intradialytic hypertension (IDH).
Methods: This study included 45 IDH patients with valid 48-h ABPM and 197 without IDH. With 44-h BP used as reference method, we tested the accuracy of the following BP metrics: Pre- and post-dialysis, mean and median intradialytic, mean intradialytic plus pre/post-dialysis, and scheduled interdialytic BP (out-of-dialysis day: mean of 8:00am/8:00 pm readings).
Results: In IDH patients, peridialytic and intradialytic BP metrics showed at best moderate correlations, while averaged interdialytic SBP/DBP exhibited strong correlation (r = 0.882/r = 0.855) with 44-h SBP/DBP. Bland-Altman plots showed large between-method-difference for peri- and intradialytic-BP, but only + 0.7 mmHg between-method difference and good 95% limits of agreement for averaged interdialytic SBP. The sensitivity/specificity and κ-statistic for diagnosing 44-h SBP ≥ 130 mmHg were low for pre-dialysis (72.5/40.0%, κ-statistic = 0.074) and post-dialysis (90.0/0.0%, κ-statistic = - 0.110), mean intradialytic (85.0/40.0%, κ-statistic = 0.198), median intradialytic (85.0/60.0%, κ-statistic = 0.333), and intradialytic plus pre/post-dialysis SBP (85.0/20.0%, κ-statistic = 0.043). Averaged interdialytic SBP showed high sensitivity/specificity (97.5/80.0%) and strong agreement (κ-statistic = 0.775). In ROC analyses, scheduled interdialytic SBP/DBP had the highest AUC (0.967/0.951), sensitivity (90.0/88.0%), and specificity (100.0/90.0%).
Conclusion: In IDH patients, only averaged scheduled interdialytic but not pre- and post-dialysis, nor intradialytic BP recordings show reasonable agreement with ABPM. Interdialytic BP recordings only could be used for hypertension diagnosis and management in these subjects.

Psychosocial Determinants for Self-Reported Health Status in Hemodialysis Patients: A Cohort Analysis of the CONVINCE Randomized Trial.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how self-efficacy and social support relate to Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in hemodialysis patients who participated in the CONVINCE trial.
- Using data from 1,360 patients, the researchers found that higher self-efficacy significantly predicted improved HRQoL across various domains, including mental health, physical function, and pain management.
- While social support also positively influenced cognition and some symptoms, self-efficacy had a notably stronger impact, highlighting its importance in enhancing overall well-being in this patient population.
Dialysis for older adults: why should the targets be different?

The number of patients aged > 75-years treated by dialysis continues to increase, particularly in developed countries. Haemodialysis is a well-established treatment with national and international clinical guidelines designed to provide patients with optimal treatment. However, these were developed when the dialysis population was younger, and less co-morbid.

Article Synopsis
- * Researchers monitored 55 hemodialysis patients using a patch ECG device for 72 hours to track heart rhythm and variability during these long breaks from treatment.
- * Results showed that while significant arrhythmia rates remained stable, indicators of heart health (like RMSSD and HF) improved over time, with worse outcomes linked to reduced autonomic response during dialysis breaks.
Symptom burden according to dialysis day of the week in three times a week haemodialysis patients.

Background: Haemodialysis patients experience significant symptom burden and effects on health-related quality of life. Studies have shown increases in fluid overload, hospitalization and mortality immediately after the long interdialytic interval in thrice weekly in-centre haemodialysis patients, however the relationship between the dialytic interval and patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) has not been quantified and the extent to which dialysis day of PROM completion needs to be standardised is unknown.
Methods: Three times a week haemodialysis patients participating in a stepped wedge trial to increase patient participation in haemodialysis tasks completed PROMs (POS-S Renal symptom score and EQ-5D-5L) at recruitment, six, 12 and 18 months.
