The Association Between Conversion to In-centre Nocturnal Hemodialysis and Left Ventricular Mass Regression in Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease

Abstract Background In-centre nocturnal hemodialysis (INHD, 7-8 hours/session, 3 times/week) is an increasingly utilized form of dialysis intensification, though data on the cardiovascular benefits of this modality are limited. Methods In this prospective cohort study, we enrolled 67 prevalent conve...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Background In-centre nocturnal hemodialysis (INHD, 7-8 hours/session, 3 times/week) is an increasingly utilized form of dialysis intensification, though data on the cardiovascular benefits of this modality are limited. Methods In this prospective cohort study, we enrolled 67 prevalent conventional hemodialysis (CHD, 4 hours/session, 3 times/week) recipients at 2 medical centres in Canada, of whom 37 converted to INHD and 30 remained on CHD. The primary outcome was the change in left ventricular mass (LVM) after 1 year as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Secondary outcomes included changes in serum phosphate concentration, phosphate binder burden, haemoglobin, erythropoiesis stimulating agent usage, and blood pressure. Results Conversion to INHD was associated with a 14.2 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.2-27.2) g reduction in LVM as compared with continuation on CHD. This result was maintained after adjustment for baseline imbalances between the groups and in ancillary analyses. There was a trend toward a larger drop in systolic blood pressure (9.8 [95% CI, −1.4-20.9] mm Hg) among INHD recipients with a significant reduction in the number of prescribed antihypertensive agents (0.7 [95% CI, 0.3-1.1] agents). Serum phosphate declined by 0.40 (95% CI, 0.16-0.63) mmol/L among INHD recipients without any difference in calcium-based phosphate binder requirements, as compared with those who remained on CHD. Conclusions Compared with continuation of CHD, conversion to INHD was associated with significant LVM regression and reduction in serum phosphate concentration at 1 year.
