Abstract

The present study compared the status of hypertension and adequacy of blood pressure control in 73 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients treated with four different modalities of hemodialysis, namely, conventional hemodialysis (CHD) with cuprophan 1.1 m2 at a blood flow rate of 300 mL/min, high-efficiency hemodialysis (HED) with cuprophan 1.6 m2 at a blood flow rate of 450 to 500 mL/min, high-flux hemodialysis (HFD) with F80 polysulfone 1.8 m2 at a blood flow rate 500 mL/min, and high-flux hemodiafiltration (HDF) with F80 2 x 1.8 m2 in series at a blood flow rate of 600 to 650 mL/min. Thirty of the 73 patients (41%) were receiving one or more antihypertensive agents to control their hypertension. The percentage of patients taking antihypertensive medication was less in the groups treated with HED, HFD, and HDF compared with the CHD group: 38%, 39%, and 39%, respectively, in the HED, HFD, and HDF groups versus 56% in the CHD group. Control of systolic and diastolic hypertension was achieved in a higher percentage of patients treated with HED, HFD, and HDF compared with patients treated with CHD. Sixty-two percent of HED, 58% of HFD, and 61% of HDF patients compared with 44% of CHD patients had systolic blood pressure less than...Continue Reading

Antihypertensive Agents: Mechanisms of Action

Antihypertensive drugs are used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) which aims to prevent the complications of high blood pressure, such as stroke and myocardial infarction. Discover the latest research on antihypertensive drugs and their mechanism of action here.
