Hemodynamic Instability during Dialysis: The Potential Role of Intradialytic Exercise

Figure 2

Haemodynamic instability during HD and HDF (a) decreasing stroke volume index identified from aortic flow measurement, with a nadir after 230 mins, and partial recovery at 50 mins after dialysis; (b) number of stunned cardiac segments (long axis) over time (20% reduction from baseline); (c) negative correlation between stroke volume and presence of RWMA [11]. Significant difference between HD and HDF. LA refers to long axis.
