Mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure are associated with different clinical parameters in chronic haemodialysis patients
The mean arterial pressure (MAP) usually serves as an expression of blood pressure in patients on chronic haemodialysis (PCHD), instead of using solely systolic or diastolic pressure. Pulse pressure (PP) has been recognized as an important correlate of mortality in PCHD. We conducted this study in o...

Zusammenfassung: | The mean arterial pressure (MAP) usually serves as an expression of blood pressure in patients on chronic haemodialysis (PCHD), instead of using solely systolic or diastolic pressure. Pulse pressure (PP) has been recognized as an important correlate of mortality in PCHD. We conducted this study in order to demonstrate clinical and biochemical determinants and variability of predialysis and postdialysis MAP and PP values. A total of 136 single haemodialysis (HD) treatments in 23 subjects (PCHD, 11 male and 12 female patients) were processed during 15 months. MAP before HD was in negative correlation with haemoglobin (
