Description
Agnieszka Bociek and seven co-authors watch how the heart's squeezing pattern shifts during a single dialysis session. Their study was published in twenty twenty-six. Heart problems are the top killer of people whose kidneys have failed and who live on dialysis.
Forty-three patients had heart scans, tracings, and blood tests before, during, and after one session. A sensitive scan measure of heart stretch, called GLS, followed three paths. In about half the patients it worsened during dialysis, in about a third it held steady, and in the rest it improved. The worsening fits a known stunning of the heart muscle under dialysis stress. The team also hunted for blood and pressure signs that predict who worsens. Such signs could help staff shield the heart during treatment.
