Description

Ting Hu and co-authors compare blood pressure swings in two forms of dialysis in a 2025 study. People on long term dialysis face a high risk of stroke and related events. Swings in blood pressure may add to that risk, but the two dialysis forms had not been compared on this point in one cohort.

The team followed 374 patients, 218 on blood dialysis and 156 on the abdominal form, for four years. A day long monitor recorded pressure swings at the study start. The blood dialysis group had higher pressure and wider swings, and more stroke events, than the other group. A swing measure predicted events in both groups on its own. The authors urge closer watch of pressure swings in dialysis care.
