Background
HS and BP are key factors to control in HD pts due both are closely related to mortality. We aimed to study their association with mortality in a large HD pts cohort from Fresenius Medical Care Latinamerica (FMCLA).
Methods
Pts undergoing HD at FMCLA between 09/2008 and 12/2016 were included. HS was assessed by multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy using a body composition monitor device (BCM©, FME Deutschland GmbH). Predialysis systolic BP (pSBP) was obtained as mean of 6 consecutive treatments prior to HS assessment (baseline). Lab data at baseline was used. Values expressed as mean±SD. All pts were assigned to one of five groups (G) based on pSBP and overhydration (OH). G1: Hypertensive-Overhydrated (OH>=1+pSBP>=140); G2: Hypertensive-Normo/Dehydrated (OH<1+pSBP>=140); G3: Hypotensive-Normo/Dehydrated (OH<-1+pSBP<140) or (OH<1+pSBP<100); G4: Hypotensive-Overhydrated (OH>=1+pSBP<140); G5 (Ref): Normotensive-Normohydrated (-1=<OH<1+100=<pSBP<140). Time at risk was counted between HS assessment and death or Dec 31, 2016. A Cox model was constructed to analyze independent relationship between groups and mortality.
Results
43,786 pts were included. Age 57.9±16.1 yrs, vintage 3.1±4.3 yrs, male 58.2%, OH 1.76±2.15 lts, pSBP 140.4±23.4 mmHg, Alb 3.8±0.5 (g/dl), Hgb 10.8±1.9 g/dl, serum Ca 8.8±0.9 mg/dl, serum P 4.7±1.4 mg/dl, serum Na 137.8±4.0 mEq/l, eKt/V 1.36±0.30, DBT 30.9%, CVD 8.0%, Cancer 1.0%.
Mean follow up time was 4.45 yrs and 5,864 death events were observed. After controlling for demographic, comorbid and lab values, RR of death was G1 1.50 (1.38-1.64), G2 1.14 (1.02-1.28), G3 1.29 (1.14-1.46) and G4 1.57 (1.45-1.70).
Conclusion
Our study suggests that any combination of OH and pSBP outside the box of reference (-1<OH<1 and 100<pSBP<140) increases risk of death. Excesive OH (OH>=1) combined with pSBP<140 (G4) as well as >140 (G1) are groups at higher risk.
