Background
Extreme changes in intradialytic blood pressure are associated with poor outcomes in hemodialysis patients, but the overall effect of traditional cardiovascular risk factors on these outcomes is poorly understood. We sought to explore the effect of lifetime tobacco use on vascular hemodynamics during dialysis.
Methods
We determined smoking status among a group of hypertensive hemodialysis (HD) patients concurrently enrolled in a cross-sectional study. We compared differences in pre, post, and intradialytic change in systolic blood pressure (SBP), total peripheral resistance index (TPRI), and cardiac index (CI) in subjects defined as never smokers or smokers (current or former) using unpaired t-tests and multivariable linear regression controlling for ultrafiltration rate, diabetes, baseline hemodynamics, and other baseline characteristics.
Results
The pre and post dialysis hemodynamics are shown in Table 1. The ΔTPRI was -582 dynes/sec/cm2/m2 in smokers and 102 dynes/sec/cm2/m2 in non-smokers (p-value = 0.003). The ΔCI was 0.249 L/min/m2 in smokers and -0.063 L/min/m2 in non-smokers (p-value = 0.02). The ΔSBP was -14.5 mmHg in smokers and -10.3 mmHg in non-smokers (p-value = 0.63). In multivariable linear regression, there was an independent association between smoking and ΔTPRI (p=0.012) with an average reduction of 522 dynes/sec/cm2/m2 in ΔTPRI in HD patients with a history of tobacco use.
Conclusion
Hemodialysis patients with a smoking history have reductions in intradialytic TPRI compared to non-smokers although overall BP changes were not different. Further research needs to be done to identify the role of smoking and smoking cessation on intradialytic hemodynamics.
