Association of physical function with predialysis blood pressure in patients on hemodialysis

New information from various clinical settings suggests that tight blood pressure control may not reduce mortality and may be associated with more side effects. We performed cross-sectional multivariable ordered logistic regression to examine the association between predialysis blood pressure and th...

Zusammenfassung:New information from various clinical settings suggests that tight blood pressure control may not reduce mortality and may be associated with more side effects. We performed cross-sectional multivariable ordered logistic regression to examine the association between predialysis blood pressure and the short physical performance battery (SPPB) in a cohort of 749 prevalent hemodialysis patients in the San Francisco and Atlanta areas recruited from July 2009 to August 2011 to study the relationship between systolic blood pressure and objective measures of physical function. Mean blood pressure for three hemodialysis sessions was analyzed in the following categories:
