Intradialytic Hypertension
2015 Annual PSN Convention
EDSA Shangrila, April 16, 2015
Objectives:
To discuss the:
Epidemiology of intradialytic hypertension
Pathophysiology
Management
Intradialytic Hypertension: Definitions
An increase in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) ≥
15 mmHg during or immediately after hemodialysis
An increase in systolic BP (SBP) >10 mmHg from pre
to postdialysis
sustained increase of BP during the dialysis session with BP values
during and at the end of the dialysis session exceeding BP values at
dialysis onset
Hypertension during the second or third hour of
hemodialysis after significant ultrafiltration has taken
place
An increase in BP that is resistant to ultrafiltration

…..that there was uncertainty about how to measure
BP in hemodialysis patients, a poor understanding
of the association between BP and risk of adverse
outcomes, and a complex interplay of factors
influencing both systolic and diastolic pressure
As a result, the KDIGO executive decided that it was premature to make recommendations regarding BP management in CKD Stage 5D patients

Management of hypertension with drugs in dialysis
patients:
Antihypertensive drugs should be given
preferentially at night because it may reduce
the nocturnal surge of blood pressure and
minimize intradialytic hypotension, which may
occur when drugs are taken the morning
before a dialysis session. (C)

We suggest that home or ambulatory blood
pressure recordings should be performed if pre-
and post- HD or clinic blood pressures are
consistently elevated or there is concern over
possible hypotension. (2C)
We suggest that dialysis patients should be on a
restricted sodium (<5g/day) diet. (2C)
We suggest that hypertension on dialysis should be
managed by ultrafiltration in the first instance. (2D)
