Abstract EN
Background.
Adequate fluid management could be essential to minimize high arterial stiffness observed in chronically hemodialyzed patients (CHP).
Aim.
To determine the association between body fluid status and central and peripheral arterial stiffness levels.
Methods.
Arterial stiffness was assessed in 65 CHP by measuring the pulse wave velocity (PWV) in a central arterial pathway (carotid-femoral) and in a peripheral pathway (carotid-brachial).
A blood pressure-independent regional arterial stiffness index was calculated using PWV.
Volume status was assessed by whole-body multiple-frequency bioimpedance.
Patients were first observed as an entire group and then divided into three different fluid status-related groups: normal, overhydration, and dehydration groups.
Results.
Only carotid-femoral stiffness was positively associated (P<0.05) with the hydration status evaluated through extracellular/intracellular fluid, extracellular/Total Body Fluid, and absolute and relative overhydration.
Conclusion.
Volume status and overload are associated with central, but not peripheral, arterial stiffness levels with independence of the blood pressure level, in CHP.
