Introduction: The use of Procalcitonin (PCT) as a bacterial diagnostic marker is controversial in patients on hemodialysis (HD). Infections account for considerable morbidity and mortality in patients on HD. Hence, early diagnosis of bacterial infections is important to make a prognostic assessment of its severity. If PCT can be used as a primary marker for bacterial infections in patients on H...
Background: The risk of developing tuberculosis is high among chronic hemodialysis patients. The tuberculin skin test (TST) has been in use for diagnosing latent TB, but few data are available on TST in hemodialysis patients. Objective: This study was done to identify the TST reactivity and frequency of booster effect in serial TST among hemodialysis patients. Methods: A total of 100 patients i...
BACKGROUND We conducted this study to determine the erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity level in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and to determine the effect of hemodialysis adequacy on G6PD activity levels and its impact on anemia. METHODS Eighty-two patients (48 men and 34 women) receiving regular hemodialysis for ESRD t...
BACKGROUND Cardiac disease is the main cause of death in hemodialysis patients. In hemodialysis patients cardiovascular complications are great clinical challenge, and function, shape and left ventricle abnormalities are present in 70 - 80 percent of dialysis patients. Changes in heart function occur in hemodialysis period and are effective in patient's prognosis. In this study we aim to evalua...
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and low heart rate variability (HRV) are highly prevalent in hemodialysis patients, and both are associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aims to examine the suggested relationship between PAD and HRV, and the relationship of parameters before and after hemodialysis. This study enrolled 161 maintenance hemodialysis patients. PA...
Introduction: patients undergoing hemodialysis experience fistula puncture pain an average of 10 times per month. Reduction of these complications is important for adjusting the patients with long-term hemodialysis. This study aimed at investigating the effects of EMLA cream and ice pack on severity of pain induced by vascular needle punctures in hemodialysis patients. Methods: This was a quas...
Background and Purpose: Hemodialysis patients face several physical and mental tension factors including depression, anxiety and stress, which could decrease their quality of life. This study aimed to identify the relationship between quality of life (QOL), depression, anxiety and stress in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: This descriptive, analytical study was conducted on 160 hemodi...
Received: 16 Aug , 2015 Accepted: 22 Oct , 2015 Abstract Background & Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate serum levels of antioxidant property Klotho by examining 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), as a marker of oxidative damage in nucleic acids in patients with hemodialysis and kidney transplantation. Materials & Methods: Serum samples from 45 patients undergoing hem...
Patients undergoing conventional maintenance hemodialysis typically receive three sessions per week, each lasting 2.5-5.5 hours. Recently, the use of more intensive hemodialysis (>5.5 hours, three to seven times per week) has increased, but the effects of these regimens on survival are uncertain. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to examine whether intensive hemodialysis associates with...
background and aims: mental disorders may negatively affect on the quality of life in hemodialysis patients and their response to treatment. the aim of present study was to examine the prevalence of depression and related risk factors in hemodialysis patients. methods: in this cross-sectional study, during june 2013 to september 2013, 217 patients with hemodialysis whom were admitted to kerman ...
