    Sequential hypertonic dialysis effectively manages hypotension during hemodialysis, achieving greater weight loss and fewer complications. This method offers a stable blood pressure alternative for patients undergoing renal replacement therapy.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Cardiovascular Physiology

    Background:

    • Hemodialysis can induce severe hypotension, a common complication.
    • Managing intradialytic hypotension is crucial for patient well-being and treatment efficacy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of sequential hypertonic dialysis.
    • To assess its impact on blood pressure stability and fluid removal in patients with hemodialysis-induced hypotension.

    Main Methods:

    • A crossover study design was employed with 2 patients.
    • Sequential hypertonic dialysis involved varying dialysate sodium concentrations (190 mmol/l and 132 mmol/l).
    • Patients served as their own controls, comparing conventional hemodialysis with sequential hypertonic dialysis using high-flux dialyzers.

    Main Results:

    • Greater weight loss (p < 0.001) and absolute blood pressure stability were achieved with sequential hypertonic dialysis.
    • Fewer dialysis symptoms and complications were recorded (p < 0.001).
    • Significant improvements in hemoglobin, potassium, and phosphate levels were observed without significant changes in plasma osmolality or volume.

    Conclusions:

    • Sequential hypertonic dialysis is a feasible and easy-to-implement procedure for managing hemodialysis-induced hypotension.
    • It allows achievement of ideal dry weight without symptomatic hypotension.
    • This technique offers an alternative to sequential ultrafiltration, minimizing plasma volume and osmolality fluctuations.
