Changes in oxygen delivery during hemodialysis.

J D Torrance, F J Milne, S Hurwitz

    Clinical Nephrology
    |February 1, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary

    Hemodialysis can decrease oxygen delivery by reducing arterial PO2 and increasing blood oxygen affinity. This poses risks for anemic patients, especially those with heart or lung issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Physiology

    Background:

    • Hemodialysis is a vital treatment for kidney failure.
    • Understanding its physiological effects is crucial for patient safety.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the impact of hemodialysis on oxygen delivery.
    • To identify potential risks associated with these changes.

    Main Methods:

    • Studied nine patients undergoing hemodialysis.
    • Monitored arterial PO2 and blood pH levels.

    Main Results:

    • Arterial PO2 decreased from 76.89 to 69.03 mm Hg.
    • Blood pH increased from 7.39 to 7.49, enhancing oxygen-hemoglobin affinity.
    • A potential 17.9% decrease in oxygen delivery was observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Hemodialysis can impair oxygen delivery.
    • This impairment is particularly concerning for anemic patients with cardiac or respiratory compromise.
